> Hello, how are all of you??? Everything is just

> happening. Mrs.Ward, our computer teacher, told us
> that you asked about what we do in hurricans. Well
> since we're in Kansas, we don't have hurricans. We
> have tonados. If ya don't know what tonados are,
> they're STRONG funnel like winds that are very
> dangerous and can cause great distruction. And when
> there is a tornado we try to get underground in a
> basement. Or if we have a tornado and we're in school
> (which has never happened) but anyways...we go out
> into the hallways and get down on our knees and cover
> the back of our heads with our hands to protect our
> heads from any flying objects. So what kind of

> Hi- this is Emily Ptacek of Wilson High School in
> Wilson Ks of USA. We don't have hurricanes in our
> part of the U.S. Only states on the coast of the US
> have hurricanes. We are in the inland and the most
> center part of the US. We have tornadoes. Tornadoes
> are almost like hurricanes, but there usually isn't as
> much rain. Tornadoes are caused when High and low air
> pressure mix, and the pressure is great. It causes a
> funnel shape cloud causing great wind speeds and very
> dangerous. Sometimes the funnel touches the ground,
> causing a lot more damage.
> We live in the "Tornado Alley" the place in the
> part of America that tornadoes are common and include
> the states of Texas, Olkahoma, Kansas, Nebraska, South
> Dakoda, and North Dakoda. Tornadoes can be in almost
> any place in America but most common in the "Tornado
> Alley."
> I have been through a couple of Tornadoes. We just
> go to our basement and usually watch the news and
> listen to the radio. If you are under ground you are
> safe. If you don't have a basement or a cellar, you
> get into the smallest room in your house without
> windows. cover your head. Usually the bathroom is a
> almost safe place if there is no basement or cellar
> available.
> If you are in a vehicle, get out of the car
> immediatily and get into a ditch or colvert, the
> fierce wind speeds can push over strong trees and
> destroy houses.
> The storms are arranged on a F scale from of 1 to 5.
> F1s aren't as strong as F5s, most tornadoes don't
> reach a F5, I know I was never through an F5.
> My cousins live by a lake called Lake Wilson. They
> were in there basement and they looked out their
> window and they saw a tornado on the water called a
> water spout. It picked up water from the lake and
> threw it on there house. They were so scared. The
> noises were terrible. The wind howled, the trees
> scratched the roof of the house, the sounds of the
> winds were devastating.
> I remember when I was about 10 years old, my dad was
> checking the sky to see if it was coming our was and I
> went out with him, we saw 7 tornadoes in a long row,
> my dad told me to get every one in the basement NOW!
> I was so scared. We all went into our cellar, I
> brought 3 blankets, and we all huddled together and
> prayed everyone out side would find a shelter and be
> safe.
> Well, if you want more information about tornadoes
> just ask, me, I will be happy to answer your
> questions.
