The maps reveal the closest location of nuclear shelters if North -American cities are bombarded, but not all are viable, they warned experts
As fears of a wider war in the Middle East grow following the United States strikes in Iranian nuclear places, two maps reveal the locations of nuclear shelters in the United States
A fall nuclear refuge is designed to protect people from radioactive particles, called Fallout, which extended after nuclear explosions.
The shelters are not built to withstand the initial explosion, the extreme heat or the shock waves of an explosion, but they can act as a safe room for those who live to see the consequences.

Google maps and historic Records of the Cold War have allowed the location of thousands of shelters that can still be ready.
Records show that states like New York, Maryland, Michigan, Texas And Wisconsin still has hundreds, if not thousands, of underground facilities labeled emergency shelters.
Most of the remaining bunkers are scattered around the largest cities in the United States, with dozens, if not hundreds, from basement shelters to BostonBaltimore, Dallas, Detroit, Memphis, Milwaukee, New York, Oklahoma City, Sacramento and Washington.
But many are no longer viable, according to experts. Sean Gold, an air force veteran and the Trutepreper Survival Guide website, told The Daily Mail that the canned food and the medical supplies they put in these bunkers for decades for decades or have expired, which makes it extremely difficult for modern people to survive, so that they do not bring their own food and water.
A good fall shelter, he said, requires shielding, which can be concrete or steel that can block radiation. He said that several meters of dirt also work, which is why many of the shelters are built underground, he said.
Ventilation is also required, but it must have the right filters to catch radioactive particles in the air. The interior must be stored with enough food and water until the last weeks or months, and there should be a waste disposal area, so that the net supplies are not contaminated.
It is recommended that individuals stay for at least two weeks in the event of a nuclear emergency, as it is the amount of time it takes before radiation levels fall to relatively normal levels, or at least safe levels to go out.
Because most shelters cannot cope with a direct blow, Gold said they should be in areas that probably do not experience strength. They should also be a short distance from the people who plan to use it.
Most refuges built in the 1960’s at the height of the Cold War will not protect individuals from nuclear fall. Either they have been repopulated or they no longer exist.
The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) now recommends that the audience end simply instead of looking for one of the shelters. Basements or interior rooms with thick walls that can block radiation are recommended.
Residents should remain inside at least 24 to 48 hours until the fall is slightly erased, although it may sometimes take much longer to happen.
