You register with county emergency management so they know where to look for you. My neighbor across the street was trapped with their deep freezer on top of the hatch. They were digging him out when I left.
We are incredibly fortunate that my neighborhood was more recent and upscale. The houses were generally stronger than most developments and only a few didn’t have shelters while in the rest of the town only a few do. Everyone survived and this tornado was absolutely a brutal killer. It was not the kind of storm that just beats you up a bit.
Being from a not-tornado-prone par of the country, how do storm shelters avoid having debris obstruct the entrance/exit doors?

Not much you can do if it gets obstructed you might have to wait for rescue, the important part is to keep people from harm
