I’ve never experienced a tornado.
Was just discussing this with another Alabamian. (that sounds so weird)
However, I do recall being subjected to periodic tornado drills in which all students were herded out into the hall and forced to sit on the floor with our knees drawn and our hands covering our lowered heads.
This seems as unlikely to protect one from a tornado as crawling under a desk would if there were a nuclear threat. (in light of reports that the 16 year old girl killed in yesterday’s tornado was found 40 feet from her home yet still in her bed)
