Are these houses good shelters for tornados?

They don't look like they would be. That alone kills the tiny house for a huge chunk of the US :/.

Generally this can be solved with hurricane ties (to prevent the structure from completely flying) and a community tornado shelter in affected regions. It won't eliminate damage but will reduce it as much as can be.
