near the ground in the San Pedro.

I know exactly where that radar site is... and the valley floor is hidden from the sweep by the Whetstones.

but I grew up in Kansas, once had a tornado come right over our house... didn't touch down until about a mile east of us. They do sound just like a freight train... if you don't have a basement ( and you probably don't ) bathtub and a mattress on top of you is the best I think. Unless you have in interior room with no windows and a strong door.
