Re: Ian's impact in your area

You may have seen the following, but if not this should be of interest. Sad to say, for those who didn’t evacuate it was the beginning of the horror they witnessed before being washed away. They had time to be aware of the folly of their decision to not evacuate and realized there was no escape. A chill went down my spine while viewing it.

I recall reading about the 911 operator during Katrina sobbing because she couldn’t send help to those who were pleading for help. She had to listen to their cries, their screaming, then silence… except for the cacophony of Katrina’s fury. Why don’t people listen and pay heed to the warnings?
Another virtual video of storm surge:

I post these links hoping people will listen to the warnings, take them seriously and evacuate when the next one hits. As he said a 3 foot storm surge is putting your life at risk.
