Storm

Lots of damage in the northern part of DFW with at least one small tornado. All I got was a lot of rain.
 
We put in a tornado shelter this year. Government had a program that paid half so I took advantage of it and with life being what it is, I figured putting in a tornado shelter would insure I would never need it.
Got a little concerned Tuesday night when the news was saying there was rotation over our area but nothing touched the ground. We've had nothing but huge amounts of rain and wind. We live about 20 minutes west of Fort Worth.

My older daughter owns about 40 rental duplexes and apartments in Weatherford. I'm up there at times painting and preparing rentals for new tenants. I'm glad I wasn't up there at this time.

Interested in how to get government to pay half? I’d like to get something from those sobs for once.

Had a tornado come through several years ago and there was some kind of disaster relief fund. Friend told me about it and I got on the list. had to jump through some hoops, have the county come out declare we were not in a flood zone, filled out several questionnaires they sent me and this February they sent me the approval to have one installed where they would pay half of the cost up to $6000 total with the government paying up to $3000. I paid everything upfront, had the county come out again verifying that it was installed and getting a GPS coordinate on it. Sent the forms in and they sent me a check. All in all the process took about 6 years.

Only 6 years? Government efficiency at work.
