Storm Shelter Locations
County emergency officials in our area are ready to open storm shelters if the weather turns severe. Remember, many of these shelters will open only when tornado sirens sound, so please stay alert. If you plan to bring your furry friends along, most shelters welcome pets but only if they're in a small carrier. This list is as of December 2024. If you know of other locations, please email myneonkids@gmail.com.
