Here is advice from the US National Weather Service Northern Indiana for those in apartment and office buildings. (Click to enlarge.) Additional advice is at www.weathersafety.ohio.gov/
Red Cross volunteers and staff have been on the ground since deadly tornadoes struck Ohio on March 14. Anyone affected by the Central Ohio tornadoes, and needing assistance, should call 1-800-RedCross.
The Red Cross has begun to distribute individual financial assistance to those who qualify. The Red Cross works with community partners and agencies to identify households whose homes were destroyed or sustained eligible damage.
This financial assistance can help pay for a deposit on a new apartment, replace lost clothing or other belongings, cover transportation expenses or other urgent needs. Anyone who would like to apply for assistance should meet with the Red Cross at one of Multi-Agency Resource Centers (MARC) listed below. For those unable to travel to the Assistance Centers should call 1-800-RedCross.

In February, State Wildlife Office Ryan Burke, assigned to Hancock County, was on patrol at Killdeer Plains Wildlife Area. He was approached by two birders from Wooster who were unfamiliar with the area and seeking guidance. Officer Burke pointed out the portions of Killdeer Plains Wildlife Area open to walk-in access and gave the birders directions to good viewing locations for swans, ducks and short-eared owls. He also showed them the local bald eagle nest.
