S/o natural disasters

Do your houses have basements? Thats always where they advise us to go when there is an extreme weather situation around here. (PA)

Nope, not in FL. I'll be hiding in our staircase praying if a tornado decides to come our way. Thankfully, we get plenty of notice to get out of dodge if a hurricane is coming though!

Not out here. Of course, there aren't really any natural disasters that would occur here where you would be safer underground.

Nope-we live in a bi-level though, so the bottom half is sorta underground.

We do, but it is unfinished and there are three windows so I wonder how safe it actually would be if a tornado hit. I'm sure it's better than our upstairs. I hope we never find out Sad

Yes, most houses in MA (maybe NE?) have basements.

Right now it's J's man town (bar/pool room/brewing place)...but will also eventually split into play room for baby A...

Not in Texas. Our dirt is often more like clay which makes it hard to dig far enough to build a basement and is very costly. We just hide in the inner most part of the house which is usually a bathroom.

Yes, and it's a very scary place with spiders. I have to shower down there. I will only be retreating to the basement if I can actually see a tornado bearing down on me.

Yeah, it's unfinished but that's where the laundry chute ends... w/d, work bench, soap and candle supplies and storage, and the sauna. Basements are common in NJ... and thankfully natural disasters are NOT.

We have a basement, but unforunately someone lives in it, so i guess I'm stuck in between a door way or in the tub if something happens.

That's where the monster lives, right?

Yes, its unfinished and is where the w/d resides. Luckily, natural disasters aren't common on this part of town.
