Location: Where I am happiest | luckyjo - 2014-04-28 8:37 PM My husband ordered our underground storm shelter today. Only $3800 including installation.
Wow! For that price I would think just about everybody would have one. I wonder how much one would cost then that could hold a couple horses with just straight tie stalls? How big is your's? |

Location: 100 miles from Nowhere, AR | TessBelle - 2014-04-28 9:39 PM I hope we can get through the night without a tornado warning because we are both hearing impaired and can't hear sirens. We have a weather radio but last time it didn't go off and there's no one around here to work on it. I have text alerts set up through my phone but I don't always hear them. Wish someone would offer a automated calling service similar to what our schools use for notices.
I have IMAP weather radio app on my phone. It beeps LOUDLY and then talks to you. I'm deaf in one ear and have yet to sleep through a warning, even if I'm laying on my good ear. |

Location: East Tennessee but who knows?! | Be sure to keep your phones turned up!! If it wasn't for my phone we never would have known we were under a tornado warning. I had the weather channel on the Tv and internet and on twitter. Just Thunder storm warning and thats all. NOAA didnt show anything either. Local news we can get was busy with regular programming. Radar showed several red cells headed our way.The alert went off on our phone saying take immediate cover-- we live in a doublewide so we headed to my FIL. We had NO idea where it was but headed out to shelter. Wound up driving directly into it. Never been so scared in all my life! We made it to the FIL and rode it out. Found out this morning that Chattanooga news we can't get had mentioned our road when they reported the warning. Our local Knoxville news didn't report on it intil it was already over us and we were out the door! Fortunately we didn't have damage in our area but it's scary not knowing where the cell is at because there's no info and its dark!! |

Oh my god you had to be so scared, I'm so glad that you guys are OK. I live in South Texas so we are lucky that Tornados are very rare in our part of the country, I have nightmares of tornados, prayers for all of you that have to deal with these monsters

Location: In the land of peanuts and cotton | Just got done with round #2 but round #3 isn't far behind. Was laying in bed watching a movie until something big hit my window right at the head of my bed. Unsure what it was. We've had 2 rounds of hail major major lightening and constant 60mph wind. According to our news station we had gusts up to 90mph with 2 tornado warnings. I've been through many many storms and hurricanes but I've NEVER been that scarred in my life. It's a bad bad feeling when you can feel your house moving and it's creaking and popping. |
