Maybe communities should build San Luis bunkers (on their own dime) for after the storm. That way people could get back home near their property but still have a safe place to retreat. They could have rotations where they could be dropped off for awhile during the day to do what they need to do, even if it’s standing on just ground and planning how to rebuild. JAT
That’s a good idea. I think people have enough of an independent streak that they want to try to fix things, and once they get to their homes & see just how bad it is, will leave again if necessary. They’re boiling with adrenaline and fear, watching rescue vehicles “allowed in” but being kept out. I think you’re right — giving them access but still keeping a shelter available would work. But that, of course, requires lots of manpower and volunteers, and tons of $$$. And, you know.. grown-up style planning ahead of any storms, and we’re not seeing a whole ton of that here. :/
