Severe Weather Approaching ?
What do you do if CG does not have shelter. Fill all tanks for weight ? pull in all slides ? Let me know your thoughts. Thanks.

Take a Weather Spotters CLASS now.. they teach you what to do if no shelter.
Seriously, I think campgrounds are required to have designated shelters.. Often the restrooms.. I know that is where I was told to go if it got hairy here.
If you are in Tornado or himicane country ask when you register, do not assume,, And keep a weather-all hazards radio operating (At least in standby) mine has gone off several times so far this spring,,, Since it is in travel mode where I am parked I get alerts affecting like 4 different states, Some have come as close as 20 miles to where I was parked, but none closer (Thankfully) but I can tell you that those radios are credited with saving many lives since their invention.
Short story: Factory, I think in Ohio, had one.. It went off, they closed down operations and retired to the storm celler.... Storm passed, the all clear sounded, they came back "Topside" and found... Nothing.
NO factory, No machines, No cars in the parking lot (Though there was one big block chevy engine,,, just no car or truck surrounding it) I mean nothing.
Total dead or injured at that factory: ZERO.. insurance rebuilt, bank account kept the employes paid (Slightly reduced but enough to keep their bills paid) and they are back in operation... With a brand new weather radio.
