Tornadoes               and               hurricanes               are               just               an               accepted               part               of               living               in               certain               parts               of               the               country,               particularly               the               Southeast               and               Midwest.

Every               summer,               major               storms               rip               through,               tearing               apart               homes               and               flooding               communities.

If               you're               a               resident               of               one               of               those               storm-prone               places,               you               might               want               to               consider               building               or               buying               a               storm               shelter.

The               right               shelter,               whether               built               into               your               home               or               nestled               into               the               ground,               can               protect               you               and               your               family               from               the               vicious               winds               that               destroy               and,               sometimes,               kill.
               Here               are               some               tips               on               getting               started.
               Are               you               at               risk?
               That's               always               a               maybe,               not               a               definite.

But               your               risk               from               a               hurricane               is               higher               if               you               live               within               a               hundred               miles               of               the               Atlantic               or               Gulf               coasts               or               anywhere               in               Florida.

For               tornadoes,               you're               most               at               risk               if               you               live               within               a               triangle               that               stretches               from               Chicago               down               to               Tampa,               over               to               Abilene,               Texas               and               back               up.

The               worst               spots               for               tornadoes               are               around               Dallas/Ft.

Worth               and               around               Tulsa               and               Oklahoma               City.
               Oklahoma,               Arkansas,               Missouri,               Kansas,               Alabama,               Mississippi,               Ohio               and               parts               of               Illinois               are               among               the               states               with               the               highest               winds               in               the               country               -               wind               zone               IV,               with               gusts               up               to               250               mph.
               What               kind               of               shelter?


               
               There               are               two               basic               types               of               storm               shelters:               A               safe               room               built               into               your               home,               or               an               underground               shelter               located               beneath               the               house               or               in               the               yard               nearby.
               Building               a               safe               room               is               easiest               when               constructing               a               new               home.

The               Federal               Emergency               Management               Agency               suggests               locating               safe               rooms               in               basements,               or               within               the               interior               of               the               home,               since               interior               rooms               are               often               the               only               ones               left               standing               after               a               home               is               struck               by               catastrophic               winds.
               Safe               rooms               must               be               built               so               that               all               the               connections               between               walls,               the               roof               and               the               door               will               withstand               extreme               winds,               and               the               walls,               roof               and               door               must               be               reinforced               to               withstand               impact               from               windborne               missiles.

The               safe               room               should               be               anchored               to               the               foundation               of               the               home,               or               be               built               on               its               own               foundation.
               Safe               rooms               are               easier               to               get               to               in               a               storm,               but               they               may               not               be               practical,               or               even               possible               to               put               into               an               existing               home               because               of               cost               and               space               concerns.

If               you               can't               put               one               in               your               home,               you               might               want               to               opt               for               the               underground               storm               shelter.

You               can               have               a               shelter               built               by               a               contractor,               or               buy               a               pre-fab               model               from               one               of               several               dozen               manufacturers.
               It's               typically               safer               to               be               underground               during               high               winds,               but               underground               shelters               can               be               vulnerable               to               stress               if               the               ground               freezes,               or               could               begin               to               float               if               the               storm               saturates               the               ground               enough.

And,               keep               in               mind               that               storm               shelters               are               meant               to               protect               you               and               your               family               from               winds,               not               water.

Do               not               use               an               underground               storm               shelter               if               you               live               in               an               area               prone               to               storm               surges               or               flooding.
               Choosing               the               right               shelter
               There               are               several               considerations               to               keep               in               mind               when               choosing               a               shelter,               whether               above-               or               below-ground.
               Your               shelter               needs               to               comfortably               accommodate               you               and               your               family               for               the               duration               of               the               storm.

A               shelter               used               for               short               periods,               such               as               during               a               tornado,               can               be               smaller,               allowing               about               five               square               feet               per               person.

But               a               storm               shelter               for               hurricanes,               which               last               considerably               longer,               should               allow               about               12               square               feet               per               person.
               The               shelter               needs               to               be               properly               vented.

Remember,               if               the               door               is               blocked               by               debris               and               you               have               to               spend               several               hours               inside               the               shelter               during               a               hurricane               or               waiting               for               rescuers,               the               air               could               quickly               become               unbreathable               without               ventilation.
               The               shelter               needs               to               be               close               to               your               home               and               allow               for               fast,               easy               access               when               a               storm               threatens.

There               should               only               be               one               door,               and               it               should               be               reinforced               and               latch               securely,               with               at               least               three               latching               mechanisms.
               The               shelter               should               be               tested               for               impact               resistance.

The               Wind               Science               and               Engineering               Research               Center               at               Texas               Tech               University               is               the               only               lab               in               the               country               that               tests               shelters,               components               and               building               materials               used               in               shelters.

The               center's               Web               site               has               a               list               of               all               storm               shelter               manufacturers               that               have               been               tested.
               And               finally,               you               need               to               think               about               how               much               you               want               to               spend               on               a               shelter.

The               cost               could               run               anywhere               from               $2,000               to               $8,000               depending               on               the               type               of               shelter               you               choose               and               the               materials               used               in               construction.
