The water level where I am is too high for a basement. Even a storm shelter would be a close call before hitting water. I want a storm shelter but can’t afford one.

Did you check out the New Day tornado shelters? It might be a solution. We are thinking of getting one. It’s not as expensive as underground shelters and they do financing, I think.

I understand the ground in the Moore area doesn’t make underground a good idea.

I had a home that sat on the water table.....we concreted the entire basement a second level up with a sump pump.....but when a hurrican hit it crept over that second level even with the sump pump in operation.
