Family Tents - Be Prepared For Bad Weather
Family tent campers are vulnerable to severe weather, so they should be particularly alert for any developing storms. The first line of defense is to be aware of weather forecasts as well as severe weather watches or warnings for your area. If you are camping in a developed campground, there might be weather information available at the office or recreation building. Also some campgrounds will try to alert campers if they hear of a severe weather forecast. However, the absolute best way to stay informed is with a National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) weather radio.
These radios are available at various electronics stores for around . There are many excellent compact units (not much bigger than a deck of cards) that easily stow in a backpack. You can listen to the forecast, as well as program the radio to alert you to watches and warnings for your location. Generally it is a good idea to check the forecast at least once a day, and to leave the radio in the alert mode at all other times. I have camped all over the US and have always been able to receive NOAA weather broadcasts, so is a very reliable and effective service. I would never go camping without a weather radio.
With most severe weather, you can take refuge in your vehicle or your tent. But that is definitely not the case with tornadoes. According to the FAQ's posted by NOAA at their website shown below, tornadoes can occur at any time of the year at any elevation. The likelihood of a tornado might be remote, but you should have a tornado plan for your campsite in case one does occur. NOAA advises that vehicles are not a safe haven, but if you have time you might be able to move out of the tornado's path by driving at right angles to it. If that is not possible, you should park the car and seek shelter in a sturdy building. If no buildings are available, lie flat and face-down on low ground, protecting the back of your head with your arms. Get as far away from trees and cars as you can, as they may be blown onto you in a tornado. NOAA further advises that, despite popular myth, a highway overpass is definitely not a safe location. Check the NOAA website for more detailed information.
In all my years of camping, I have had to take refuge from tornadoes only twice. But each was a fairly unnerving experience, because all you can do is wait to see what will happen. In both cases, suitable shelter buildings were within easy distance, which will typically be the case unless you are back-country camping. That doesn't mean you should not go back-country camping, but it does mean you need a plan for your specific camping location.
Vacations in Family Tents [http://www.familytentsonline.com/] are wonderful adventures that will give you memories for a lifetime. By all means, go out and enjoy our beautiful country. But, be safe and be aware of the weather.

Columbia Cougar Flats ii Family Cabin Dome Tent - Bestselling Family Tent
The camping season is once again upon us and so there will be many a tent for sale around this time. As far as family camping tents go the Columbia Cougar Flats ii Family Tent is an all round perfect choice for its price range.
Camping has always been popular with families and more so now than ever with the economical problems in the world. Young families can gather their stuff together and take a cheap family holiday in away.
When going on holiday accommodation can be pretty expensive especially if you have a large family. The biggest advantage of camping is the fact that you can take your accommodation with you. When you think about it you buy a good tent once and you can use it over and over which will save you a ton of money in the long run.
Columbia cougar flats ii has everything you need in a family tent. One of the things I look for when buying a tent is if it is easy to erect. Many a time I have been caught out in the rain trying to put a tent up or pack one away. Having a tent that is uncomplicated or user friendly will help speed things up.
The Columbia Cougar Flats ii Cabin Dome Tent goes up really easy and all of the poles are color coded to make the whole process a no brainer. You just put the colored marked pole into the corresponding colored marked hub.
This is a fairly large tent sleeping 6 people comfortably and if you really like your comfort you can even get 4 queen sized mattresses in there. If only two people were camping out you could each take a room and still have space leave a fold away table and chairs out throughout the holiday. There will be space for your food and drinks cooler, backpacks and all your other items with a ton of room to spare.
For strength and safety the poles on the roof are made out of fiber glass and the ones on the side are metal. This provides for a very stable tent that holds its shape well. There is a canopy that extends off the rain fly big enough to fit about 2 chairs under it and any muddy shoes or equipment you may have used. Perfect for keeping the inside of your tent clean. When you don't need the awning anymore you can just roll it right up and out of the way.
This Columbia Cougar Flats 2 Family Cabin Dome Tent features a unique air ventilation system to increase airflow in the tent as well as a rain protection system to keep you and your family dry while inside! The tent comes with a bottle of seam sealer however the seams are factory sealed so the sealer can be used as an additional weather proofing precaution.
If you are not a big fan of the noise made when walking around in a tent then you will be pleased to know that the Columbia Cougar Flats ii has a floor made of nylon. This cuts down on noise and is also less prone to holes.
As well as all the usual stuff this tent also comes with a very nice wheeled duffel bag for the whole thing to fit into. This bag has a hard plastic bottom and is a very nice touch.
