Bunker Down

3/9/2017 (Permalink)

It seems that Central Florida residents are prone to "bunkering Down" these days when a hurricane comes to town.  It might have to do with hurricane fatigue from the early 2000's- I know many people who evacuated 5 or more times-and came back to very minimal damage.


This past October of 2016 powerful Hurricane Matthew caused major damage up and down the coast. However Brevard county residents were spared the kind of damage our neighbors in Volusia  county received.


But even with the very strong storm headed our way a very small percentage of coastal residents headed the evacuation order.


Taken from the 2010 census there are about 90,000 Brevard county coastal residents and only about 3500 of them checked into shelters.


Regardless of evacuation fatigue or not- I think more residents need to take the evacuation a little more to heart.  Matthew could have very well turned out very different if that little "wobble" didn't happen.
