   Fortunately, my wife's family in Apache OK did when she was a   
   girl.

   You split me in your quoting. What you said was, "When tornados   
   hit the damage is very localized. Most people in tornado   
   alley may have a storm shelter or know of one close."   
      
   To which I replied, "No, most people in "tornado alley" don't.   
   Don't you read or see the news accounts of the aftermath of   
   recent tornados?".   
      
   In context I think it's evident my "news report" comment related   
   to all those people in the news reports that didn't have storm   
   shelters.
