00:20Now, look for cover quickly.
00:22Your best options?
00:23Gas stations, parking garages, even a covered drive-thru.
00:26But do not stop under trees or power lines.
00:30Those can fall in severe weather.
00:32If you can't find shelter, pull over safely and get completely off the road if possible.

00:52Protect yourself first.
