This page checks the National Weather Service every minute and lights up on its own when something is issued.

If a tornado warning is issued

Get to the lowest floor, in an interior room — bathroom, closet, or hallway. Put as many walls between you and outside as you can.
Stay away from windows. Cover your head and neck.
In a mobile home or vehicle: leave for a sturdy building before the storm arrives. Neither is safe in a tornado.
Charge your phone now. Keep shoes and a flashlight where you shelter.
After it passes, watch for downed lines and gas smells; don't sightsee — crews need the roads.
