Answer:

1) move away from the windows.

When abrupt changes in pressure (produced by the hurricane) affect the windows, they can "explode" and be a serious danger for the people.

2) Go to the lowest level of the building.

Is safer than the upper levels because the lower levels suffer less from the strength of the hurricane (being closer to the ground increases the structural resistance), make sure that you have everything you may need in case of an emergency.
