After the devastation of a tornado, there is an immediate scouring of the area for survivors by emergency workers. I would imagine one would advise one's friends of the shelter and ask that they advise workers to check the safety shelter. Since witnessing the devastation of a tornado, I realize that all the debris is not heaped over one shelter, it is scattered over miles and miles. (A cellphone is a good thing to take with to the shelter...)
