[QUOTE="yukonjack, post: 2211710, member: 2939"] [B]Sounds like the data is out there. You'll just need to do your own searching for it.[/B] [url]http://www.tulsaworld.com/article.aspx/El_Reno_tornados_EF5_rating_needs_closer_look_NWS_official/20130606_777_0_ANatio823340[/url] [B]Professor Larry Tanner from the Texas Tech Department of Construction Engineering and Engineering Technology, said he had inspected 61 of the 199 storm shelters known to be in the path of the May 20 Moore tornado that killed 24. The idea that it is impossible to survive even the most violent of tornados in a properly built above-ground shelter is a myth, he said. Tanner showed pictures of homes that were destroyed except for small portions, which were being held up by their above-ground shelters. [/B] [/QUOTE]
