List of Public Mississippi Storm Shelters- Find the Shelter closest to you
The Mississippi Weather Network team has been hard at working getting as many tornado shelter locations as possible in a list for our viewers to have, below is the list.
We want to remind you that if you live in a mobile or manufactured home then you need to see shelter elsewhere in the event of a tornado warning.
The list included is not all inclusive, but it is what was shared with us via our viewers or other official online sources. If we are missing a shelter on the list that you know of, please email editor@socialnews.com
