ALWAYS HAVE A WHISTLE with you in case you (can't) open the storm cellar door, hopefully someone hears that whistle and comes to your rescue.
It’s refreshing to watch a storm video where you take shelter and not wait for the last possible second. I’m from Wisconsin so when there is a siren I sprint to the basement, LOL.
Do not sound proof!!! If door is unable to open from inside... Your cry's for help will not be heard..
make it removable soundproofing
Agreed
gentlejake605 excellent idea
@@gentlejake605 That was my thought. Use some blue foam insulation. Just pack it in so you can pull it out.
@@gentlejake605 sheets of foam insulation. don't spray foam it.
Looks like a wonderful set up! Maybe attach / glue carpet pieces on door to muffle sound. Also an old piece of carpet for the dogs to lay on instead of cold concrete. And a towel to dry off if you go through rainfall into the shelter.
If you ever hear the words over the radio ((TORNADO EMERGENCY)) think of it as a EF-5 Tornado, automatically get to the shelter IMMEDIATELY.
It is actually an EF 3 or higher
Like to see people taking care of the precious pets ❤️😇
GLAD ALL OF YOU IS OK. LEAST YOUR WISE IN GETTING A STORM CELLAR. IF I LIVED IN TORNADO ALLEY I ALSO WOULD HAVE A STORM CELLAR LIKE YOURS.
Interesting to see how people deal with tornadoes differently I live in mississippi we get tornadoes now and then but if the sirens were going off like that I'd be going nucking futs
Get thunder shirts for the dogs….it helps with anxiety
Styrofoam panels on the inside of the door or maybe spray foam a layer on that door. That stuff is messy but crazy fun!
So grateful that you all are safe! Preparedness is a good thing! Thank you for keeping us posted! God Bless!
Glad you made it through the storm safely! Especially your nephew! Loved the vlog!
I'd suggest a secondary door at the bottom of your stairs that opens into the shelter. Something like a metal and foam core exterior door would do the trick. With a Katie bar on the shelter side to really latch that thing down.
Austin’s all cool as long as there is coffee ☕️ down there
Here in mannford Oklahoma we call it a normal tuseday night
bnsf rail fan santa fe productions Here in Wisconsin I sprint then dive into the basement! Lol.
Next time you help Kayla and that baby out of there and don't worry about filiming
the dog said shiiiit i aint goin down there til yall go down there...lmao it was the look away
If I lived in Oklahoma I would have a real house down there 😂
@austinandkayla for sound proofing your metal door. Go to your nearest hardware store and pick up some sort of rubber mat. Then fasten it to the outside of the door.
Hey guys! Railroad guy here. I'm from Kansas & love standing outside watching the storms roll through. Traveling as much as I do you, forget how powerful the storms can get. My co-worker & I were working in Clinton, OK one yr. He's from Cal. now AZ. It was hilarious watching him try & play it cool but scared to death over our weather. Glad to hear y'all were safe. I'm up in Wisconsin & I even called home to insure my families safety. Oh by the way Kayla, I'd still love to do a podcast with you about the questions we get about our life style of living in the road.
Dang spell check...
I'd have a 50 ton jack and some cribbing just in case the door gets blocked! And a separate exit away from the house.
It is the season here in Oklahoma , we live NW of ya'll STW , Tornado Season . Anyway like your Videos keep them comin .
Ear plugs to deafen the noise to your head, once it quiets down then you can take them out.
Austin we were having a home inspection done on a house were buying over in Skiatook 2 weeks ago and the home inspector said our "rabbit hole" worked great. He was talking about our storm shelter because he said three tornados were in the area. Something I guess ill have to get used to. We don't have them here in Colorado.
That ole prairie wind... you can’t beat it. Even in the hatches.
Down here in Alabama we get a hurricane about every year scary stuff! Glad y’all are ok!!
Jackson Rolin take Bible study at my house head down to be better
I live in Alabama we have had one bad hurricane in the past 5 years it’s a rain storm at worst
id suggest getting a storm coat for the one doggo who was scared and maybe dog beds down there for them to so they aren't laying on a hard floor.
You can put a sound buffer on the storm inside to deaden the sound. Then you can download a radio station app
Kx935 which broadcasts live from Laguna Beach CA do if you lose power you can listen to this radio station live anytime. I can listen to this radio station on my cellphone in Mountain View CA.
Also have s hammer or a whistle that either a K-9 or human can hear
Hope this info helps.
you could literally just go to the store and buy a sheet of foam and a can of spray adhesive in glue a piece of foam to it and it would fix all of your problems for about $20
Great parents. Y’all protected your family.
When you live in tornado alley 🙋🏻♀️ I named my dog Paisley..🐶 praying for yalls safety!
They get a inch and a half of rain in 30 minutes meanwhile where I live in WA Australia you get a inch and a half every bloody 5 years 🤣😂😂
Like my sister where she lives in Texas. They use pop bottle caps for rain gauges. :0D
A tornado can rip that door right off u should invest on something more heavy and solid the vacuum of air could suck everything in your shelter out God Bless and stay safe everyone 🙏😊
That’s a nice size shelter
Stay safe yall..i live in houston tx and today we got hit hard with rain and alot of flooding and this just the bigginig
is that an old school pencil sharpner? havent seen one in years awseome.
I’m from TX and normally the actual sirens mean there’s a tornado on the ground somewhere around you. I’d been in the shelter so fast. Lol I was in one as a child and it’s definitely traumatized me. Had to be pulled from the rubble.
Beautiful dogs.
Get yourself a bottle jack. You are safe in your shelter but any sort of debris can land on your door and you can't get out. We got a 20 Ton bottle jack and several pieces of rebar in assorted sizes. Learned from my granny who was trapped in her storm shelter for a whole day after the storm passed. A tree landed on the door of her shelter and she could not push it off.
We had flash flooding a couple days ago in the Houston area. Our subdivision flooded and I barely made it home from work. Drove through water about a foot deep on our side street. We had a tornado watch/warning about a week before that. We dont have storm shelters, so the 6 of us and the stinky breath dog squeezed into our half bath for about an hour.
What you need to do to stop that loud sound coming from your storm shelter door is go and buy some really good adhesive glue for steel and get yourself A roll of rubber sheeting cut down to the same shape as the size of what you door is, and glue the rubber to the door this will cut down on the sound from what ever is hitting the door, and something ell's when the lady holding the baby come's out of your storm shelter I noticed that there is no locking mechanism holding the door shut I thought that, that was a bit odd the suction from a tornado will rip that door strait of it's hinges without there being something on the side of the door holding it shut with you and the miss's and the little bubs inside.
Very smart! Anyone living in that part of the world should have a bunker like that! Wish I had one!
Thanks for sharing! I've been thinking about moving from PA to the SW.
ur dog are so cute. I love Corgi. I had one as a kid but she died at the age of 14.5 age.
You need to buy an APC with surge and battery. $60
For your tv’s, computers and cameras
Beautiful there
For what you stated @ 11:33 I gave you a 👍
If you glue some rigid foam insulation to the door it will help deaden the sound
Sound proof tiles they put on walls for your metal doors
I’ll be in Ardmore Oklahoma tomorrow hopefully I don’t see anything I’m from Reno Nevada so first time out this way. Great video guys.
get some of the sound deader used in cars to put on the tin doors
IF I LIVED IN TORNADO ALLEY I BE FREAKING OUT. ALL OF YOU SO CALM. THINK YOU WOULD BE SCARED . I LIVE IN FLORIDA HURRICANES YOU GET A FEW DAYS WARNING BUT A TORNADO A 3 MINUTE WARING. THANKZ FOR YOUR VIDEO.
Very very nice store Shelter!!!
Storm
Spray foam the inside of that cellar door and that will kill the sound of hail and rain.
We had to get in ours. Here in Oklahoma. Made a vid as well.
Back in June/July when the Tornado hit Creek County near Tulsa it came very close to my house. I had two big Cedar tree's get dropped in my back yard. The life of living in Oklahoma.
Mississippi get a lot of tornadoes also. I live in south Mississippi and we are about to start hurricane season. So we have to start stocking up on water and stuff.
Actually a warning means that one has touched down in your area. A watch means conditions are favorable.
Actually, it means a tornado has been spotted! It hasn’t necessarily touched the ground. ;) you’re right though, a warning means there is a tornado and a watch is favorable conditions 🤗
@@Sabbathissaturday if it dosn't touch the ground, it's not a tornado. But circulation can trigger a tornado warning, and funnel clouds as well obviously.
Actually it means that there’s a rotating storm or a tornado that has touched down and your in the immediate path
Glad y'all made it through the warning ok. We have had some pretty rough weather in our neck of the woods today. Can you put a piece of insulation board on the bottom side of the door? Be safe y'all.
Sprayfoam insulation on the dpor about 2.5” thick would be ideal comment back or something and i can get intouch with you more about it
If u use foam insulation on the inside, and us styrofoam sheets on the exterior and coat them with marine paint,pray for the people in central Kentucky
shouldn't have obstacles on your walkway , plus yes so loud would hurt the poor doggie ears as they can hear ten times better than us, and maybe lay a comfy doggy bed for them both.
I am from Canada 🇨🇦 and we don’t typically get tornadoes in our province but we got hit in 2021. I used to love extreme weather and storms and typically our biggest worry was ice storms in the winter taking out power for prolonged periods of time. Now when thunderstorms roll in I’m on edge and constantly looking outside. Our prediction rates and warnings in Canada are completely different than the USA and we as a country are not good at tornado predictions. The day we got hit I checked the weather network less than 10 minutes prior to the tornado hitting us and all I saw was a bit of rain on the radar about 20 or 30 miles away from us and that was it. Our emergency alert system to our phones came about 4 to 5 minutes after the tornado hit us 😔.
It’s interesting to hear you talk about not being “worried” about tornadoes and you have A pretty good understanding of what to expect and based on the couple videos, I watch do you have a good sightlines, but when you’re in the neighbourhood type setting, which is very difficult to see with the forest around us, what’s coming in the distance?
I LOVE YOU GUYS!!
Hell with that . I would be down in a flash. I’m terrified of any storm.
I stay over yonder in bristow oklahoma man that was some wicked weather😂
My buddy’s house over in tailholt OK, just alittle past talequah OK, got hit with a tornado about a month ago. Took his car trailer and tailgate to his truck out. Also the garage door. He said he heard the sirens and set in town in his car lol.
Austin and Kayla i heard the dog's and horse farted and made a tornado to happen again. I'm very glad and happy that you all are safe my best friends love all your videos Austin and Kayla
No efences but get in the tornado shelter when the tornado siren goes off
Keep insurance folders and all important documents in pockets near the front door. If the weather is very dangerous, you can bring these folders and documents to the Tornado shelter in advance.
For TV weather station tornado warnings near your area, place pets in portable cages. Set ornamental birds in smaller cages and cats in a carrier.
By Dogs ley collar and leash on.
Clarify in advance with the family who will carry what to the tornado shelter when the storm siren sounds the alarm.
I thought sirens were only for touchdowns? I heard whistles are a good idea in case you get trapped.
Have there been back to back tornadoes that you have to spend your night in the shelter
No doubt I wouldn’t want to be in the situation I know one time I was in Georgia working and there was a bad storm it was crazy
If the warning sirens go off that means a tornado has touched down in ur area. It may not hit ur house but it is there weather u see it or not.
You guys can see your tornadoes. Ours are so wrapped in rain and usually in the dark. We immediately get in our safe place. Wish I had a Cellar to go into.
Glad we VERY rarely get them in NZ! I'm 59 and I can only remember 1 last yr in Auckland, I us that was a bad 1, I guess 2 you guys in 'T Alley', it would be a little breeze! lol; but to them/us, it was MEGA.
I’m surprised just how many people, don’t think of the fact, that they may be needing a separate restroom in their storm shelters!
Need to make that shelter more comfortable. Put some carpet down a few lazy boys and a big ole tv!
And maybe paint on the walls so it looks less like a shelter
@De Me yea but why not make it a little more cozy😂
Just hanging out down under.
Ah you're shelter is very nice :D, I need one of those.
I love how the dog is crapped out on the floor whether in the house or the tornado shelter 😂
We live in Minnesota. I always wonder how people who have to go outside to get in there shelter area can wait to go down. Don’t you worry about what could be flying around when you go out? Why not have a door to your shelter inside the house?
As for your noise issue. Could you make a fake wall that could be closed like a door at the bottom of the stairs to keep some of the noise out.. maybe you could glue some noise deadening material to the inside of the door. Rubber tiles might work
Ear plugs for the kids maybe and the adults if the sound is too loud
That’s crazy cause we had a warning also but where I live we never take it serious cause with the mtn ranges theirs no way it would touch down, it has very east of us in the next state but never here
We had a little activity here in Wichita Sunday night,and last night.
Nothing worth heading for cover though. But it has been raining forever.
Local flooding now.
Hey Austin I got a serious question about welding it's something I really want to do in the future but there's one thing holding me back. And I was hoping you could answer question. Please?
The highest winds ever recorded on earth was in Moore Oklahoma. That tornado was really really bad.
Until 12/10/2021. There may have been a higher figure recorded with the tornado tracking from Arkansas into central Kentucky last night.
Hi Austin a rear occurrence a year or so A tornado through Gauteng R S A
And also nice vedio
So I’ll say this. Tornados freak me out I’ll take my hurricanes and flooding in south Louisiana. Also for that door look into sky high car audio deadiner the 180mil is what I used on my shop door for the rain!
Some times they can do that
When I get a basement or a tornado shelter outside imma get my gaming computer xD
Hi guys, I was wondering what size is your shelter? Were looking to get one here in Ar. But I can't find anything bigger than a 6x8. With 4 adults and a 150 lb Mastiff I need something larger. Enjoy your channel!!
Always subscribe to every tornado video so bevause of that I have alot of families couples people who do other Vlogs videos ! But thats how I get alot of people I subscribe to and yes I subscribe to alot of other people besides storm videos ! I have cat dog animal videos or stars I I like !
I appreciate you sharing this I’m not trying to be critical but I’m just thinking it would be good to have a dog bed either big enough for both of one each. I got really nice beds at Walmart for $20 😏 . I have a Sweet Miss 🐕 Baby she goes everywhere with me. I live with extensive Emphysema and COPD. She keeps me safe when I get dizzy from low Oxygen. I’m prepared to take care of her with my emergency providing and bug out. I hope you guys get a chance. Blankets too for you guys to use 😏❤️. God Bless!❤️🇺🇸🖖🏼
How big is your shelter?
Always wanted a basement
I know what you mean about kids change your priorities cause last month we had a tornado watch here in Ohio and I was at work and before I even thought about going to the shelter at work I made the call to my fiance to check on her and our 2 y/o son cause before I went to safety I wanted to make sure they were ok cause i was ready to leave work to head home
If i would you i would put some sound deadening on the tornado shelter door so the rain isn't so loud.
You can jsut buy some cheap self sticking mats for like cars
MauriceNL sandy and friends Pink Floyd have fun with wishhad some godbless u can get undetground ground for you 🐶 arefind cover overhead
I fully understand this video was 3yrs ago so your chances of seeing this comment are basically slim to none lol BUT that's obviously not stopping me from typing out my comment lol
I think a sheet of the foam board insulation would be beneficial to help deaden the sound of the door.
Also I have nervous dogs and 4th of july or new years is the WORST!!! I have CBD drops for them and it's a world of difference when they have them. I notice they are fully relaxed about an hour after they take it.
Best $15 ever spent!!!
I'm live in a tornado alloy and hear tornado siren we hide and out cats but we move with our cats faster to singapore we nkow already
Man we have had some rain haven’t we
Is that a 3C cattle feeder? Used to build them
