One year ago, on May 20, 2013, an EF-5 tornado tore through Moore, Oklahoma, killing 24 people, injuring more than 300 and uprooting residents of a city who were already no strangers to the danger of tornados.
The year since the storm has been marked not only with rebuilding efforts, but also with preparations for future disasters. Workers have built more than 1,100 shelters in Moore over the past year, including underground bunkers and fortified safe rooms.
