I don't know if the local authorities here would know what to do with a "storm shelter registration" but my brother, my mom, some friends down the street and at church all know about it. The friends down the street have no basement and have a standing invitation to join us should the need arise.

The thought occurred to me that a whistle or one of those portable horns might be a good thing to help rescuers find you under what's left of the house.

I'm setting it up to be comfortable (survivable?) in there for 3 days or better. Ready to eat food, water, radio, and.....a bucket with a lid.
