Mobile Homes to Include Weather Radios in Indiana

By , About.com GuideMay 3, 2007

Follow me on:

While a mere 7% of the United States population lives in mobile homes, 40% of tornado fatalities occur among those who live in these prefabricated dwellings. Thanks to a new law all mobile homes sold in the state of Indiana must include a weather radio to provide alerts for severe weather or tornado warnings. Dr. Jeff Masters' WunderBlog tells of the history of the law and discusses it further.
