Always Available Phone 12 'lM-Bif-l'lM mm (815)455-1114 m watch and warning, saya Hogaett Both watches and warnings are taaued by the weather bureau A torando watch means a tornado has not actually been sighted, but weather conditions are such that tornadoes may develop Watches may last up to eight hours, and they usually specify a 200 to 300 mile area Residents need not seek * shelter, but they should stay tuned to a local radio station for additional information Tornado warnings, however, mean that a torando funnel haa already been aighted or in­ dicated by radar. Warninga usually last 5 to 30 minutes and involve much smaller areas. 10 to 200 square miles Area residents should seek shelter immediately when a tornado warning is issued There are several methods for detecting a tornado tuning in local radio stations for weather bulletins, sighting a tornado, and using the Weller detection method. Weather forecasters usually can tell several hours in ad- *! vance if a tornado might occur, says Hogsett If there is either a ; watch or a warning issued, the stations will make frequent reports including any further developments Sixty-five percent of all Illinois tornadoes occur during 1 spring and early summer, with I April 15-21 being the peak week. • Tornadoes in southern Illinois - occur most frequently during March, while tornadoes in [ northern Illinois are more ; common in April, May, and • June, says Hogsett Hot. humid weather with; southerly winds present the; right conditions for a tornado Rapidly moving, low clouds; that are greenish-black are also characteristics of tornado- producing weather Thun-. derclouds may be present and. *' if so, they will usually bulge down ufttead of up The funnel of a tornado looks like a spinning, twisting rope at the bottom and fans out into a rotating, funnel shaped cloud Extending down from the base of a thundercloud, the funnel is gray or black The Weller method of detecting tornadoes was developed in 1%8 by Newton Weller, explains Hogsett This system uses a home television set to receive tornado signals. The method, which works with either black and white or color sets, is becoming widely used To detect tornadoes with your television, follow this procedure warm up the setting contrast maximum picture First, television control to position Turn the dial to Channel 13 or your highest numbered Adjust the brightness until the screen is ITT1 3{AlTOO MIS channel control black -Turn to Channel 2 Do not reset the brightness control Lightning will appear on the screen as flashes If the screen become bright or the darkened picture becomes visible or the blank screen becomes light, this is a signal that a tornado is within 20 miles The Weller method is still m the Experimental stages and should not be relied on as the only method you use to detect tornadoes. Hogsett concludes. t
