Yeahhhh...wife and I got in the bathroom.
Curious, but in a two-story home with no basement, am I correct that the best shelter we have would be the closet space underneath our stairs to the second floor?

If it is near the center of the home, then probably so. You want to put as many walls as possible between yourself and the outside.

Hoping everyone stays safe and that these tornados aren’t as dangerous as they seem to be. Watching the radar and waiting here in Monroe. Looks like we’re going to get hammered within the next hour

It’s close. There’s at least one wall outside of the four walls of the closet (none of the closet walls are exterior). Unfortunately, we don’t have anything more central that has walls and no windows. The downside is that it’s in the foyer area, about 10-12 feet from the front door which happens to be the side of the house where most storms approach from.
