Reply to: Gulf Coast residents: plan now for a trickier, scarier hurricane season thanks to COVID-19 Posted April 21, 2020

So what about those of us on the East Coast? I’m in Florida and while my area hasn’t had a direct hit in a few years, we will never forget Frances, Jeanne and Wilma. Thanks for your content on this site though. We have learned to be prepared for storm season, but usually later rather than sooner. I have already started stocking up on items in April rather than July!

Thanks, John! I am devouring the info on this site. Living in FL for over 30 years, we have experienced the dreaded hurricanes of ’04 with a direct hit to our county. We learned pretty quick what happens when you aren’t prepared and my husband witnessed first hand the chaos that ensues when the local grocery store brings milk out of the stock room and gets swarmed before he can even wheel the cart to the milk section of the store. We vowed then to get prepared for hurricanes which we do each season. Now that this pandemic is going on, it’s changing our thinking again. Thank you for this site and for the info provided. Thank you to each respondent for further educating me on the seriousness of this flu. I’ve been sent home to work and will gladly stay in our little fortress. And, will continue to learn how to be better prepared.

So more people in my state, Florida, have died from the regular flu than Covid. What’s the big deal? The same population (sr. citizens, diabetics, compromised health problems) are just as susceptible to the flu as Covid. Why are we having these crazy rules now? I don’t get it. But I do enjoy your site – learning lots!
