The National Weather Service has now issued a Tornado Warning for Poweshiek County. Please listen for the city of Grinnell siren to sound which will mean a Tornado is close. Please seek shelter at this time.
National Weather Service Warning Info
A TORNADO WARNING: A tornado has been sighted, or is imminent. If a tornado warning has been issued for your area, move to your pre-designated place of safety.
If you are on campus when a tornado warning has been issued, you should move to the lower level of whatever building you are in. DO NOT go outside to check the weather. If an underground area is not available, move to an interior room or hallway on the lowest floor. Crouch down against a wall or get under a sturdy piece of furniture. Auditoriums, gymnasiums, and other structures with high, wide-span roofs do not offer good protection. Stay away from windows and exterior doors.
Please visit the Campus Safety & Security website at http://www.grinnell.edu/offices/security/weather for information concerning severe weather shelter areas for the campus and additional information concerning severe weather at Grinnell College.
