During a tornado, where is the best place to go in a 1 story house with a crawl space?

I was wondering this last night as I watched a show on tornadoes. I can't decide if a corner in the garage (which is at ground level) or the bathtub.

Anyone want to make an educated guess?

A bathroom with no windows. Get into the tub can cover up with blankets to keep glass from the mirrors off if the worst happens.

In the bathtub and surround yourself with blanket or a mattress over the tub, with you under it. A closet that is the most interior is good.

I would agree, the bathtub with a heavy blanket or tarp to cover yourself for protection. Choose the most interior bathroom you can. Also, try to get yourself into a protective position- head between your knees, with your hands behind your neck.

Personally, I would also try to befriend a nearby neighbor with a cellar I could run to, should a tornado warning go out with enough time to get there.
