Default Someone threw out a 50 gallon plastic[Nikki]Koi-Lo

What with the planet heating up, it's something of a crap-shoot, as far
as if a hurricane will hit a specific area,...There are all sorts of
weather-related events currently happening world-wide, everything from
another large chunk of iceberg, this one only about 100 miles square [a
previous one was literally the size of the state of Rhode Island], to
record-breaking heavy rains, drought snow-falls, or tornadoes, et
cetera. So who knows where a hurricane, or any other weather event might
take place.~Dean.

If I had a choice, I'd move to the center of the state, away from the
ocean and any large bodies of water, flood plains, et cetera, because
with the Earth warming up, bringing about the change in the North
Atlantic currents, due to the melting permafrost, icefloes, icebergs, et
cetera, with the frigid freshwater coming in conflict with and slowing
the flow of the warmer waters of the Gulfstream, thus altering the
normal weather patterns all around the world, resulting in more freak
weather, and more powerful cyclones, hurricanes, tornadoes, et cetera.

This is really scary as I live on the eastern edge of Tornado-Alley. I
don't suppose the powers that be are doing anything about all that carbon
dioxide or whatever is causing all this craziness.........

So living along the coast, in my case, just blocks from the Atlantic
Ocean, would have a much higher degree of probability of severe damage
to my home and my person. Anyone thinking of moving here, or anywhere
near the coast should keep all of that in mind.~Dean.

With the hurricanes and high cost of living in a decent area there, people
may be better off staying where they are.

My disabilities currently are manic depression and COPD, both permanent
disabilities,...But most times, only the Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary
Disease would prevent me from doing any heavy labour, such as putting up
window coverings. But the thing is, I'm barely getting by as it is, so
there is no way that I could afford to purchase any viable coverings for
my windows. And of course, unless everybody, including those on the
second floor, covered their windows and glass jalousied front and back
doors, then the structure's integrity would be quickly compromised. And
I can't see any of those folks climbing up on a tall ladder and
attaching the coverings to those windows.~Dean.

==============================
You're only alternative then is to have a comfortable bathroom. If you
can't evacuate you can always have a few candles and a few good (library)
books in there. Small cheap kerosene lamps can be found at Wal*Mart for
under $5. At least bathroom windows are small, easy to cover with a heavy
drapelike cloth and you wont get hit with flying glass (depending where the
window is).
