The media is all About this hurricane hitting Florida. Florida is well prepared ahead of time, even a pre-storm state of emergency has been declared.

The people I feel for is everybody on all the Caribean islands it's going to swamp and flood long before it gets anywhere near the mainland. That's the real disaster. Most of them have nowhere to go, not much shelter and not much for emergency services and relief. That's where we should send help.
The exception is Cuba that has a very efficient hurricane emergency system. The island has not lost lives for many decades, even as it is in the path of most atlantic hurricanes.

Praying for all those affected by hurricane Irma and pray for florida as they brace themselves for this storm. God bless them all & bless all those people trying to help in the aftermath in the Dominican, Puerto rico , st marteen, and many other islands. My heart and prayers are with them..
I just saw news, GlobalMedic, from Canada is set to deploy to the Caribean, nice to see that somebody recognizes that those on the islands are the ones who need help. Florida is well prepared for this and has lots of emergency services, its the poor places like Haiti that I feel for.

Exactly ! It is so sad. Haiti is already a poor third world country and this is only going to make things worse. I pray for all people affected by hurricane Irma. God bless them.

Are we organizing a Terb bus to help whisk selective Floridians from harms way ?

Floridians have lots of warning to run and hide. Although it's certainly more difficult for the elderly and people who require daily medical treatment, are in hospital etc. The people on the smaller islands have nowhere to go. Brutal!

This is when living in a condo or apt. building helps a lot.
Hurricanes cant knock over a highrise, and you dont have to worry about floods.

You can actually sit back and watch the show
