1.25 Million Ordered To Evacuate As "Nightmare" Hurricane Florence Bears Down On Carolinas

in #hurricane6 years ago

Hurricane Florence could be a nightmare for the Carolinas and Virginia.

In preparation, 1.2 million people in the Carolinas are ordered to evacuate. These are people living in the coastal areas who are at risk not only of the winds but storm surge.

Historically, 90% of deaths from hurricanes come from water and not wind or objects falling related to the wind.

As someone who dealt with Hurricane Harvey last year, I hope the people in the storm's path make all necessary preparations and evacuate if they are advised to do so by the authorities.

Scary stuff, I'll say a little prayer for them.
