Post Hurricane Harvey Getting Ready for Hurricane Irma and Hurricane Katia High Priority

Posted by HCN on Thursday, September 7, 2017
It is September 7th 2017, talk has been around for a few days now about Hurricane Irma being powerful and imminent.  A key in staying ahead of storms of that kind of magnitude is time; waiting until the last minute to try to come up with an effective plan that involves numerous square miles and millions of people is not a prudent strategy.

What those of us in the United States need to know, and really have a strong grapple on, is to realize these storms could be coming and not to blow them off, or wait until they are within visibility of their house or an authority is standing outside on a loudspeaker instructing an immediate evacuation.

The storms are Hurricane Irma, and Hurricane Katia.

These storms move around and change in different ways as they move along.  Winds of 150mph might not be felt yet, but that does not mean they might not get here, with a bunch more elements such as heavy rain, flooding, generally a force of destruction to infrastructure that only a few know exactly what to expect, measure until it hits.


Stay safe.

Refer Burma/Myanmar page for air strikes over the EOM February/2026 start of March 2026 time frame. Up for consideration is the be mindful of the whole pie concept. There may very well be a double team set of missile strikes going on on Iran, subject to differing views; however there are still a number of situations going on globally that are weighted, such as violence in different areas of where the Sahel and Northern Africa meet, situations of starvation in the eastern areas of the belt as well; and missile strikes in other regions.
