Take Action!
The hurricane warning system is increasingly effective in providing warnings in time for people to move inland when hurricanes threaten. However, it is becoming more difficult to evacuate people from densely populated areas. Roads are easily overcrowded, particularly during summer tourist season. The problem is compounded by the complacency of people who do not understand the awesome power of the storm. Complacency and delayed action could result in needless loss of life and damage to property.
