It struck me as odd that someone would put a bed in a storm shelter but not have heat there
It really does make sense, since in Kansas the storms for which you need a storm shelter are tornadoes. These are rare (though not unheard-of) in cold weather, but the great majority occur in the late spring and summer, usually late in a very hot day, so heat in the shelter wouldn't be worth the extra effort and expense in most cases. The storms also don't last very long in any one place, so even if it was cold, it would only be for a couple of hours at most. I've never heard of one when the weather was below freezing.
There were a few early this month in eastern Kansas that moved on into Missouri but they are more the exception than the rule.
Frank - about 6 miles from Kansas, and about 35 miles north of where the tornadoes crossed the border.
