CC, our fraidy room is the master bathroom, lol. Some people will have storm shelters outside in their yards or have an interior safe room. Many will head for the central room in the house which is often a bathroom. We like to set up camp in the master bath and closet. It's pretty entertaining when you have 4 dogs, a dog bed, radio, emergency tote, and your imagination when crammed in together. Hubby and I have been known to eat pizza and share ice cream with the dogs while sitting on the side of the tub listening to the weather alerts.

Our town does not have sirens that go off when threatening weather comes. Instead, I check weather.com and watch the skies.

Here are some pictures of a 2006 tornado that hit a nearby town:

This cat was hiding in the cabinet. Note the missing roof and the water tower in the background.
