For public safety experts, Friday’s severe weather warnings were a time to tell people how to stay safe during and after the storm. John Bobel, public information officer for Lexington’s Division of Emergency Management, said it’s best to have a plan in place – and a safe place to go when winds are whipping.
“In a home the best place is an interior room with no windows. That could be a closet under the stairs. That could be an interior bathroom, but you want some place that's as far inside the house as possible. If the house has a basement, that’s ideal.”
