Technology Helps Us Survive Hurricanes

9/9/2015

 
In thinking about the 10 years since Katrina and how that hurricane smashed the gulf coast and change lives forever.

Technology helped track this beast and mitigate it effects but Mother Nature can still be overwhelming.

In preparing for severe wind and flooding, you may want to live on higher ground with natural wind breaks around your home. Today’s technology has created structures which can be elevated so flood or surge waters will not enter the home unless it reaches extreme heights. Boarding over windows with plywood securing with hurricane clips or paying for impact rated windows prevents debris from flying though them cause by the wind.

  The aftermath can be worse than the storm itself with standing flood water, no power and drinking water unavailable. Technology can address all these issues. Elevated structure and a good sump pump can help with water in your house. Power wise the use of battery, solar or hand crank powered portable devices like flash lights, TVs and radios. Every home should have a portable generator. There are gasoline powered generators, propane based generators, solar powered generator and those that can be a combination of both.

Hurricane resources include: FEMA, local county gov,

Be prepared, make a plan and execute.
