I also have wondered what is the best place in my house to "hunker down" if a severe storm or tornado found its way down my driveway or from across the lake.  My house is basically built around the old cement block building that was here when I bought the property.  It has a concrete slab and heavy duty brick fireplace.  Would it be a good plan to gather around the fireplace and cover with mattress or blankets?  Seems the chimneys are always standing when the rest of the buildings are gone.  BTW, the fireplace now only goes to the top of the wall, as I removed the section above the roof.
