There are two things you need to do to stack the odds in a tornado situation:
1. Be able to get the warning
2. Have a plan that gets you in a safe place
Do these two things and you will survive nearly any tornado.
Having said that, always have multiple ways to get the warning. NOAA Weatheradio is one of the best ways, but it is not infallible.
The NWS Birmingham reports that the Tuscaloosa transmitter is out of service. Please monitor other sources of severe weather information this morning and let friends, family and neighbors know.
