[QUOTE="Skiluvr03, post: 2209193, member: 17204"] I don't know, when I see whole communities completely flattened, like Moore, Joplin, and several others, there is absolutely nothing standing. Did none of these people have a safe room? Some of these were in affluent neighborhoods, so I would think somebody had one? The only example I know of personally, and it is a positive one, my neice and her in-laws were in a safe room when the outlets started getting sucked out of the room, when they came out, the two story house was gone, but the room they were in was the only thing standing. They didn't call it a Tornado because no warning was given so they called it straight-line winds, or a down-draft or something, but the grass on the acreage had swirles in it. Anyways, I would 90 percent safe in a safe room, and 99 percent safe in a underground, garage set-up. I have a friend that has a safe room, and is going to get a garage kind, but, that doesn't mean anything; he's not the type to do research or anything. [/QUOTE]
