It's tornado season
Toot is warning
Do you know what it means when the KU whistle toots short blasts any time day or night?
It means take cover immediately, because a tornado has been sighted heading this way.
COVER?
Not only will the whistle toot, but KU Traffic and Security vehicles and Lawrence police cars will slowly cruise the streets with sirens screaming.
According to Howard Lindley, civil defense Director for Lawrence and Douglas County, the KU buildings are safe places. Cover should immediately be sought away from doorways and windows. Basements or hallways are best.
When the Topeka Weather Bureau detects a storm center or a tornado, it contacts the police department.
The KU Traffic and Security department will then contact J. J. Wilson, director of dormitories.
"WE TRY VERY desperately to warn people, yet not to alarm anyone." Wilson said.
Wilson keeps in touch with resident hall directors day and night if a tornado is suspected. The hall directors notify students of danger by intercom.

residents should proceed to the basement or the hallways.
The residence halls are framed concrete which have been designed to withstand a high wind load, Wilson said. "Even the top floors are safe if the students get into hallways, away from doorways and windows," Wilson said. "It would only be one to two per cent safer in the basements."
Tornadoes occur most frequently in May and June. The first ones generally appear in March and April.
Most tornadoes hit between 3 and 7 p.m. But the Topeka Weather Bureau stressed the fact that tornadoes can hit any time of the year, any time of the day.
When the U.S. Weather Bureau detects a storm brewing, it issues a Tornado Watch, which means only that there is evidence of a storm in the vicinity. When a Tornado Warning is announced, it is time to take cover.
