12-Orono Weekly Times, Wednesday, June 23,:1993, Summer is Tornado season Tornadees pose a significant threat te life and property in many parts of Canada. On average, there are about 75 tornadoes a year in Canada causing deaths, injuries and millions of dollars in damage. Tornadees, have struck virtually every part of Canada except the Arctic. They occur most frequently in the area stretching from the Recky Mountains eastward te New Brunswick, with the highes t risk areas being southwestern Ontario and seutheastern Manitoba. Chances are you'll neyer experience a tornade, but if you do, you should know what te do to protect yourself and your family. The follewing advice is ý offered by Emergency Preparedness Canada (the federal gevernment erganizatien respensible forý premoting preparedness for ail kinds of emergencies) and The Canadian Red Cross: kTake shelter. The best place to be during a tornado is in a basement under a work-bench or table. Eitber will protect you fromn debris hurled into the basement. If you don't have a basement, seek shelter in a small interior room such as a bathroom or closet. Stay away from windows and outside walls. Don't stay in a mobile home. Mobile homes and similar structures offer virtually no protection against the power of a tornado. t is mr.ch safer to seek shelter elsewhere, preferably below ground. If no such sheiter is nearby, lie down in a ditch, depression or culvcrt and protect your bead with your-hands. *Don't stay in your vehicle. if you are on the open road in a car or oither vehicle when you spot a tomado, it is best to gct out of the car and seek slielter in a ditch, depression or culverL. Make sure you're a safe distance from the car so it can't roll over onyou. *Avoid seeking shelter in buildings with wide free span roofs. Buildings such as gymnasiums, some modern Schurches and auditoriums are like to collapse if hit by a tomnado. If yotu are in one of these buildings and have not time te get out, try te take cover under a sturdy table 4ýor other strong piece of furniture. - If you are in a high-rise building or school in the path of a tornade, take shelter away fromn windows in an interior hallway or room, -preferably on the lower floors or in the basement. Don't use the elevators as power can be cut off during a Around the Board with Bob Willsher (Continuned from page 1) parents into an active role in their childs school and education.

Heed weather warnings. When severe thunder storms threaten, turn on your radio or TV and listen for local weather informnation. If a tornade, has been reported or sighted, a tornado warning will be issued. When you seek shelter, take along a battery- powered radio so you can find eut wbat is happening. Ifyon are in a small boat, seek a safe harbour at the first sign of approaching thunder stormns.'
