if you are inside, open doors and windows.

Explanation:

During a hurricane, low - lying areas are prone to flooding, so we should avoid them (eliminating "Go to low - lying areas"). Going to the roof of a home on low ground is dangerous as it may be exposed to strong winds and flying debris, so we don't do that. Instead, we should go to a shelter. When inside, windows can break due to strong winds, so we move away from them and don't open doors and windows (as that can let in damaging winds). So the correct measures are avoiding low - lying areas, going to a shelter if home is on low ground, and moving away from windows if inside.

Answer:

• Avoid low - lying areas.
• If your home is on low ground, go to a shelter.
• If you are inside, move away from windows.
