For those who miss having a basement shelter for a hurricane or tornado - there is a company in Crystal River that sells tornado shelters. They are a slightly modified concrete septic tank that you can have sitting in your garage and crawl into it when a tornado warning or hurricane warning occurs.

It probably would not stand up to a direct hit but may be safer than a closet. Keep it well stocked with wine and cookies!

If I hear of an approaching large hurricane, I am just going to pack up the golf cart with essentials (wine and cookies) and head up I-75 to Atlanta!
