For the past six months, I have been working with Survive--A-Storm tornado shelter company. See: Survive-A-Storm: Industry Leader in Storm Shelters We, along with WeatherCall, have created a new warning system that complements our shelters.

As everyone knows, there are two elements to saving lives in tornadoes: A shelter plus a timely notification of danger. StormWarn provides just that.

24/7 you get a phone call (up to 2 phones) and an email (up to 2 addresses) if the subscription location is in the polygon for a tornado warning of a warning of winds 80 mph or stronger.

There is a second call + email with the all-clear.

If you have one of our shelters, you get a call ~10 minutes after the all-clear to make sure you are safe or if you need outside assistance.

StormWarn is packaged with all new shelter purchases. Everyone else can subscribe for $25/year. To subscribe go here: StormWarn from Survive-A-Storm

In the past twelve months, we had seen destructive overnight tornadoes in Bowling Green, Springdale (AR) and south Kansas City. With StormWarn, subscribers can retire for the night rather than worrying about whether to try to stay up once the 10pm news is over. This is the solution, especially considering it will not awaken you with a screaming tone at 3am for 1" hail.
