IMPORTANT NOTE: If this is your first adult passport (first passport renewal after your 16th birthday), then use Form DS-11 instead of DS-82. The fee for first-time adult passports is $135. It is recommended that at least one parent appear in person with children ages 16 and 17.
Do wider tornadoes cause more damage? There is a statistical trend toward wide tornadoes having higher EF-scale damage. This can be because of more strength or because of greater opportunity for targets to damage, or a combination of both.
Most deaths and injuries from tornadoes are from flying debris. If you are in a house go to the lowest possible level and stay away from windows, doors, or outside walls. If a basement is not available, go to the interior portions of the lowest level. Get as many walls between you and the outdoors.
