I heard YESTERDAY that storms were predicted again for today. There's no excuse for the schools in that area to open for business this morning.

Impossible. Schools around here would be closed for most of the spring months.

That isn't how it works. Tornadoes affect a very small area of a state during most outbreaks. And the kids would have been in just as much danger at home.

Yes there is. Following your policy, in much of the country students would miss 1-2 weeks of school every spring.

If we just never let kids leave their houses and kept them in the basement they'd be even safer.

Also depending on the house, kids are safer in school. A kid from a trailer park is DEFINITELY safer than in school.

Most schools and business buildings are reinforced and probably safer than any place other than underground shelters.

Of course, any direct hit by an F4 is going to sustain damage.
