“Western North Carolina is destroyed. Hell on earth. I spent last night chainsawing fallen logs on a mountain so people could get in. Before that we were hunting for survivors in (town) and delivering water to the fire department. Got a family out today…”

Preppers are stuck too, however, because the entire area was smashed with sudden walls of water and tornadoes, in an area the hurricane was not predicted to go. But yeah, having those things, if you can hang onto them in a storm or when your house washes away, is a good thing.
I have both been evacuated quickly, and been stuck for multiple days on end with no power, etc, over the last few years.
Having a go bad AND a trapped plan is imperative. We had no electricity, ran out of backup generator fuel, and eventually wood in the middle of winter with no way out. It was the good will of a neighbor we could get to that saved us.
Plan, plan for the plan to go wrong, then plan some more......
Agreed. I was living in ground zero for the freak hurricane that was Andrew, the only one ever recorded to have GAINED strength after making landfall... which then proceeded to travel in a perfect East-to-West path across Florida. I was inland almost halfway at the time, so beyond a bunch of rain, we weren't expecting much, but being Floridians, we had batteries and water and nonperishables for a few days. We didn't even own a chainsaw. IIRC, the power was out in our area for almost two weeks, and anyone who relied on government was severely let down. Now, we're out "in the woods" and while not self-reliant, we're a lot more connected with neighbors and much more prepped than ever. No, we don't think either Andrew or Katrina or Helene were purely natural events. Hopefully one day we'll learn all the truth.
Yep. I lived thru Katrina. Went thru the eye. It was bad. Prayers for those in harms way
I will continue to watch your progress with great interest as I do with other handshakes that ask rhetorical questions that they obviously know the answer to.
G'morning DJ, check this out. FIFTY YEAR OLD DOCS SHOW US GOVT HAS ABILITY TO MANIPULATE HURRICANES. https://principia-scientific.com/50-year-old-docs-show-us-govt-has-ability-to-manipulate-hurricanes/
That's the problem with the NHC and their stupid cone with the center track line. People just look at that line and they don't realize that anything in the cone is at risk.
