How long would I have/need to stay in a shelter? For nuclear weapons, 60-90 days is the established time period if you are close to ground zero. After this time the radiation levels are almost normal. For chemical weapons, the persistence time can be set to be potent for 1-20 days. For violent storms, a few days would be the max, for a meteor impact, depending on the surface damage, the sun could be blocked-out for up to three years, making life on the surface almost unbearable and impossible to grow any produce or raise livestock. ARCs are our “reassurance” and responsibility to our families that even in uncertain times, a safe and comfortable place is prepared for us, so that we may live to see the future and be as prepared as we can be!
