ABSTRACT:
A hurricane shelter generally comprising a dome shaped cover and a cylindrically shaped base wall, designed to be sufficiently small and aesthetically pleasing to enable it to be located without difficulty near a home or a trailer and provide quick access to needed shelter in times of emergency. At other times, the dome can be raised on its own central column above the base wall to form an umbrella-like covering over the base wall. The column is designed to support a table top, making it possible to convert this safety structure into a shaded outdoor table, or in the case of a large shelter unit, into a gazebo, a useful addition to a home throughout the entire year in areas subject to hurricanes.
