Tornado Season in Rochester MN

6/15/2022 (Permalink)

SERVPRO of Rochester can help homeowners and renters after experiencing a storm event. Many times storms strike without warning. 

Living in Minnesota, we usually don't experience tornadoes year round, however the season is from May through October. Being prepared is key!

The Minnesota Department of Public Safety has a few tips that we also suggest. 

  1. Always stay away from windows. 
  2. Make sure you have a plan and communicate with family on what you would do in the case of a tornado. 
  3. Check supplies: battery operated radio, an extra cell phone charger, blanket or heavy quilt in case you need to pull it over your head for protection from flying debris.
  4. Go to the lowest level and interior area. This will give you more protection that an open area with windows or doors.
  5. If you are driving, do NOT park under a bridge. Go to the nearest gas station or area where you can seek safe shelter. 

Preparation is important. Take the time to go over the list, practice and plan.
