Plan Ahead Decide now whether you will: 1) go to a designated shelter 2) leave the area for a safer place inland 3) ride out a hurricane in your home -- but only with approval of local authorities (Consult your local emergency services officials in making plans) Plan an escape route in case you need to evacuate. Remember, you'll need to account for crowded highways when the notice is given. Pack a hurricane survival kit, complete with: Non-perishable food First-aid kit Radio and flashlight with fresh batteries Container with fresh water Watch or Warning? Watch: Hurricane conditions are possible in the specified area of the watch, usually within 36 hours. Warning: Hurricane conditions are expected in the specified area of the warning, usually within 24 hours. When a WATCH is issued: Make sure your car has gasoline. Review escape plan. Listen for weather information. Check survival kit. Make sure medical prescriptions are filled and medicines are packed to go. Gather up important papers, including identification. When a WARNING is issued: Move garbage cans, awnings and other large outside objects into your house or garage or anchor them securely. Place protective covering over windows and garage doors. Garage or store vehicles you leave behind. Secure boats or place inside a building. Shut off water, electricity and gas. If you have a swimming pool, cover the pump filter. If you live in a mobile home, check tie-downs and always get out immediately and go to a safe place. If You Stay If you are not ordered to evacuate and you decide to stay: Stay indoors away from windows or glass doors. The safest place to go is underground, in a basement, and under something sturdy, like a work bench. If you do not have access to an underground shelter (as many coastal residents do not), head toward the center of your house to the bathroom or hallway, where there's extra reinforcement and the maximum number of walls between you and the outside. Keep your radio tuned to weather information until all-clear has sounded. If You Leave Go directly to a shelter, as directed by local authorities. Lock doors and windows before you go. Afterward Wait until you get an all-clear announcement to leave your shelter. Be extra careful when you venture out because: Driving may be especially hazardous due to debris on streets, flooding, emergency vehicles in operation and traffic signals and street lights out of service. Stay away from rivers or streams or other places where flooding is likely. Downed or dangling power lines pose a lethal threat. When You Return Home Check electrical, water and gas lines (or have a professional do it) as soon as possible. Make emergency repairs to prevent further damage. Check to see that refrigerated food hasn't spoiled if there has been a power outage. Use emergency water rations or boil water out of the tap before drinking until you're notified water supply is safe. Report damage to your insurance agent. |

American Red Cross said yesterday that it is going deep into debt to fund a $70 million Hurricane Gustav relief effort, an unusual occurrence even as the nation's biggest disaster aid charity braces for a trio of powerful storms lurking in the Atlantic. The Red Cross has raised less than $5 million toward its Gustav expenses, officials said. To recoup its Gustav cost -- most of it borrowed money -- the nonprofit organization plans to roll out an aggressive national campaign Monday. In 2005, the Red Cross borrowed money for the first time in its 127-year history when it took out a $340 million loan to help pay for its $2 billion response to hurricanes Katrina and Rita. The nonprofit organization quickly raised the money to cover the debt. But because Gustav weakened as it churned onto the Gulf Coast, Americans struggling in a soft economy have not responded with an outpouring of giving as they did three years ago when Katrina left indelible images of devastation and suffering. Gustav spared New Orleans the death and destruction that forecasters predicted but dampened donations to the Red Cross, which mounted one of its largest mobilizations in years. Fundraising is "nowhere near the pace that we would need it to be," said Joe Becker, senior vice president of Red Cross disaster services. He called the situation "daunting." "There's a sense that, 'Oh, wow, they dodged a bullet,' " he said. "But there's a large number of people with a lot of need there, and the Red Cross is going to be there for quite a while." The gap between Gustav expenses and donations comes at a perilous time for relief groups. An unusually high number of U.S. disasters this year has taxed charities, from wildfires in California to tornadoes across the South. With their resources depleted, the same charities are mounting efforts for Tropical Storm Hanna, expected to become a hurricane before lashing the Eastern Seaboard this weekend, and Hurricane Ike and Tropical Storm Josephine, which are on uncertain but dangerous paths. "They told us it would be a big hurricane season, and they were right. We're kind of in the soup here," Becker said. "We're resourcing Hanna, and we'll resource every brother and sister storm behind it. . . . The country needs a strong Red Cross." Massive power outages in Louisiana have prompted the Red Cross to open more shelters in the New Orleans area and serve half a million hot meals each day. "The 700,000 or 800,000 people without power is causing us to launch a tremendous feeding operation on a scale that's much bigger than we were thinking," Becker said. "We're borrowing the money. As hard as it might be to raise the $70 million that this one costs, now we've got Hanna and Ike and Josephine behind it." Other nonprofit groups also prepared for the worst from Gustav and provided shelter, food and clothing for thousands of evacuees. The Salvation Army spent in excess of $1 million on Gustav, but it has raised just $30,000 to cover it. Save the Children, which spent more than $100,000 on diapers, cots and bassinets at shelters, has raised $35,000. Catholic Charities USA spent more than $200,000 and has taken in $10,000. "Gustav, in damage, pales in comparison to Katrina," said Father Larry Snyder, president of Catholic Charities. "But with over 2 million people being evacuated and the expense incurred there, it's not a small disaster." The charities could collect more donations in coming days, but with Gustav nearly gone from the headlines, some officials fear they might not break even. "They told us it would be a big hurricane season, and they were right. We're kind of in the soup here," Becker said. "We're resourcing Hanna, and we'll resource every brother and sister storm behind it. . . . The country needs a strong Red Cross."

Through the summer, but typically in late summer and early fall, swirling circles of wind are spawned by the heat of the Atlantic Ocean. These storms start as tropical disturbances and, as winds intensify, become tropical depressions, then tropical storms, and finally -- when winds reach 74 miles an hour -- hurricanes. Hurricane Andrew, a category 4 hurricane hitting a populated area in South Florida, completely rewrote the record books for wind-driven hurricane damage. Hurricane Floyd set new damage records for water-related damage due to hurricanes, especially in North Carolina where full storm recovery is still far into the future. Both of these major storms also triggered a new way of thinking about potential damage from hurricanes. |
