I don't know how well the best tornado proof room will protect against debris from an EF5. Ideally, in an EF5, the best place to be is underground.

How difficult is the ground around Moore? Could heavy equipment be used to create large scale shelters in the school grounds? In the style of the air raid shelters we used to have in the cities during WWII. EF5s are rare yes, although Moore is particularly unlucky, but the schools should ideally have underground shelters. Still, all boils down to money, doesn't it?

Terrible day for Oklahoma.
