Tornado Warning for DeFuniak Springs?

3/7/2022 (Permalink)

We are leaders in storm damage cleanup and restoration services in Okaloosa County.

In January, The National Weather Service reported a tornado touching down in DeFuniak Springs with a wind peak of 80 miles per hour! The tornado uprooted trees and damaged homes in the area. The Okaloosa County website offers helpful information on tornado safety. Our local team in Crestview, DeFuniak Springs, and Chipley has been restoring severe storm damage in DeFuniak Springs for over twenty years.

Here are some tornado safety tips from the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) if you are under a tornado warning:

• Go to NOAA Weather Radio and your local news or official social media accounts for updated emergency information. Follow the instructions of state, local and tribal officials. 
• Go to a safe shelter immediately, such as a safe room, basement, storm cellar, or a small interior room on the lowest level of a sturdy building
• Stay away from windows, doors, and outside walls
• Do not go under an overpass or bridge. You’re safer in a low, flat location.
• Watch out for flying debris that can cause injury or death
• Use your arms to protect your head and neck
