Hello pinkoceanflower, Each home we show on the channel is constructed to meet the Wind Zone classification of its intended location, ensuring compliance with these federal standards that correspond to the location’s susceptibility to high winds and hurricanes. While these standards enhance a home's resilience against strong winds and certain weather events, it's important to note that no home can be entirely "tornado-proof" or "hurricane-proof." The severity of these natural disasters can vary widely, and extreme events may exceed the structural limits defined by the HUD Code. Because of this, homeowners of ANY home should consider additional measures such as installing storm shutters, reinforcing anchoring systems, and constructing safe rooms. Regular maintenance and adherence to local building codes further contribute to a home's durability during such events. So in short, these homes do comply with federal standards for wind resistance, tailored to the specific Wind Zone of the home's location. While these measures provide significant protection, similar to that of any other home, they do not render the home entirely immune to the most extreme tornadoes or hurricanes.
