[OLS]

A day late and a dollar short for everyone affected by Sandy.

But you know, this season comes around every year, and it never ceases to amaze me how many
people end up caught short when the chips are down.

There are many people in the Asylum who have weathered BIG STORMS. Many of us have never
evacuated...not once. Some of us have evacuated many times. I started this thread two weeks late
to provide a place where people can post solid survival tips gained over many hard years of tolerating
tropical weather. I only have two to start with, but I will think of other things that have saved me
before. And there are many here that know other things that have been learned the hard way.
Post em up. Next time a hurricane threatens, maybe we can top it so folks can read it.
