can you help me decide about a storm shelter?
I’m looking at buying a safe room shelter that anchors to concrete slab. I’m not real fond of the idea of an underground shelter because I’m really claustorphobic and the thought of being underground freaks me out. Do you or anyone you know have one of these safe rooms outdoors, and how safe are they, really? It says FEMA certified for F5 tornado. I won’t buy one of these and then it fly apart, right? Is it safe to take shelter in for a hurricane as well as tornado? Tornados are my main concern.
Come on weather people. I know you know about these things…
