Jacksonville Storm Shelters

Two tornado safe rooms are near the main campus of Jacksonville State University.  These safe areas are constructed to meet the Federal Emergency Agency (FEMA) standards.  Each is designed to protect the occupants from storm-related hazards and open when the National Weather Service (NWS) issues a tornado watch.
