Chester County<\/strong>, Pennsylvania<\/strong>, is currently under a Tornado Warning<\/strong> valid through 5:30 p.m. Eastern Time<\/strong> today, Thursday, June 20<\/strong>. This means that a tornado has either been spotted or is strongly indicated by radar<\/strong>, and dangerous conditions are occurring or imminent<\/strong>.<\/p>\n If you’re in or near<\/strong> the affected area, you must act immediately<\/strong>.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n A Tornado Warning<\/strong> is different from a Tornado Watch<\/strong>. While a watch<\/strong> suggests that conditions are favorable<\/strong> for tornadoes and severe thunderstorms<\/strong>, a warning confirms that a tornado threat is present right now<\/strong>. This is a life-threatening emergency<\/strong>.<\/p>\n If you are indoors or near a shelter<\/strong>, go to the lowest interior floor<\/strong> of a sturdy building, preferably a basement<\/strong> or interior room with no windows<\/strong>. Stay as far from exterior walls and windows as possible. Take cover under something solid<\/strong> like a table or heavy desk, and use your arms or a pillow to protect your head<\/strong>.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n If you’re in a vehicle<\/strong>, do not try to outrun the tornado<\/strong>. Instead:<\/p>\n Leave the vehicle and enter a nearby building or shelter<\/strong> if accessible.<\/p>\n If no shelter is available, either lie flat in a ditch or low-lying area<\/strong> and cover your head, or stay buckled in<\/strong> and get as low as possible below window level<\/strong>, covering your head.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Remain tuned to local weather alerts<\/strong>, NOAA Weather Radio, or emergency broadcasts for real-time updates<\/strong> on the situation in Chester County<\/strong>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Chester County, Pennsylvania, is currently under a Tornado Warning valid through 5:30 p.m. Eastern Time today, Thursday, June 20.
