There's no really perfect place to build a tornado shelter. A house or
debris could fall on the entrance and people would be trapped. I think
a good idea would be to build a couple of access entrances to an under
ground shelter. Store food, lights, batteries, a working cell phone, and
other essentials in the shelter. I'd love to have a tornado shelter,
but they're so darn expensive.
