Post and Pre Storm Ian Path Updates
Posted by HCN on Friday, September 30, 2022
Evident Ian trailed through parts of Florida. Fortunately, even though all counties were at one point under state of emergency in preparedness, not all counties got hit, and so resource requests have been called off. Conjecturably funding requested by Florida to federal levels of government, such as the White House, for all counties as might get reassessed as well. Funding for an entire state especially as large as Florida can be pretty expensive, keep in mind allocations over to wildfire hit areas in California just in the natural disaster framework from the last few months is relatively burdensome.
It appears central Florida was hit hardest. Millions are without power. Search and rescue efforts in Florida underway.
Generally, the path of Ian is northward. Whether northeast or northwest, may have elements of unclarity. As of today, basically it looks like Ian is heading slowly, such as about 15mph, heading towards he Georgia and the Carolinas. To what extent the magnitude and force of the storm has waxed and waned, also aspects unclear, however when preparing for a major storm, preparing for the worst as doable may have wisdom. Costly accidents may take the form of power lines damaged and concerns about currents of electricity flowing the waters.
Once again, if it has been directed to evacuate, prudent action may be to abide by and go forward with the directives provided by authorities.
Which brings up post Ian path concerns in Florida. When running generators, the reason why electric cords should be kept out the water is in the event a cord gets frayed or discharges of current get in the water, which could be powerful enough to electrocute a person or other domino effect problems. Carbon monoxide awareness as well; it is not wise to sleep or maintain being in a confined space without adequate ventilation, as too much of the heat or temperature produced winds from machines like generators per unit of air could be dangerous for a person to breathe without a good mix of naturally provided air from the outdoors.
