    Yeah, that’s all that team needs.

    So fat, the cyclones this year have ended up on the milder side. Here’s hoping for another of those.

      Bill: Do you live someplace exposed to hurricanes? No snark intended; just wondering about experience. As a resident of southwest Florida, I can absolutely assert that there is nothing mild about a hurricane. It’s no exaggeration to assert that communities require a decade to recover, even from Cat 1, as these storms ravage communities. Sure, we see the wind and rain during the event. But communities are stunningly weakened in so many less-visible ways.

      And: I have the means to take all precautions; and the means to stand at the head of the line after the storm. I can have hurricane protection on my home, and a generator. Many/most do not; they wait longer for power, for clean-up crews, for jobs to return.

      The less fortunate in America are so conveniently invisible.

        I don’t contest anything you just said.

        I was comparing this year to other years where you had cat 4 and cat 5 storms crashing directly through heavily populated areas.
