- I can't believe we stayed in our old hybrid when a tornado hit the campground we we staying at several years ago. We just got set up when the storm hit and no one warned us. Lots of trees down with very few trailers damaged.

Your 40k motor home can be thrown just as easy by a tornado. They can throw a 80k semi. The only safe place is underground. Thinking your motorhome is a place of refuge is what gets people killed.
I'm liking my 40,000 lb MH even more. I did watch the local weather one evening in Kansas with everything unhooked and ready to go if the reported tornado came my way. Fortunately it went apox 10 miles from us so I put the slides back out.
True. BUT, my mobility is enhanced by my little motorhome (only 20K instead of 40K). I can leave in seconds if, as stated, everything is folded up and disconnected.
Actually, thinking a STICK & BRICK house is a safe place is what gets people killed!Ivylog wrote:

That's a good way to wind up injured or dead. Get to a shelter. It's your safest option.- OMG .... just about the time you've seen everything! Wow!
- Wow, Thanks for sharing x2
