May 21, 2001 F2 Tornado in Hartland, Michigan Tornadoes cause heavy loss of life and property damage throughout much of the United States. Most schools and other public buildings include areas that offer some protection from this danger, and building administrators should know the locations of these areas. The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) has a booklet that provides guidance for finding the safest available areas in schools and other public buildings. The National Weather Service, FEMA, and the American Red Cross have a Tornado Preparedness Guide that describes the formation and characteristics of tornadoes and how to prepare and plan for a tornado.
