Winds can topple trees, and it doesn’t have to be a very strong wind...trees falling have been known to destroy homes, injure and even kill people, the upper right quadrant of a hurricane is where tornado formation can take place. Any hurricane going up the state may not be a CAT 4 or 5, but it could be rain maker and flooding is not beyond the realm of possibility. Winds can cause objects to become fast moving projectiles. It’s probably better to never make any statement about since it’s never happened, why should it happen now. Mother Nature has a mind of her own and sometimes she can be nasty.

Getting ready might be easy for many, but there are some individuals living in our community who are less able to prepare in a short time. While many might always have plenty of food available to carry them over for an extended period, not all do or can do. Some older individuals might not totally comprehend potential or impending danger.

What does this have to do with the topic...did TV act too soon? They didn’t. Workers may need to help their family, neighbors, friends prepare. It is NOT the fault of TV that this particular storm is being so slow in its trek.
