Be ready to react.
To protect your roof, close all windows and doors including interior, exterior and garage doors. If a window or door is broken or blown open, the home could fill rapidly with air. Cover your windows with storm shutters or plywood.

Know what to do inside.
If trapped in a flooded building, move to the highest level of the building. Don't climb into a closed attic.
When only experiencing high winds, go to a designated storm shelter or a windowless room or hallway on the lowest floor.
