Need to build back from the water and quit building rectangular houses.
I was in a bunker during super typhoon Pamela on Guam.
There were two sets of blast doors anchored to the three foot thick concrete.
The pressure changes were ripping the doors out by the casings from the concrete. We drilled holes through, fished coat hanger wire through, then up to cables to anchor the doors to the floor. This was in the FAA radar building, so the floor panels came up to get at wiring.
The building was shaking and the wind noise was so great we had to yell at one another to be heard.
We were in teletype communication with technicians in the radar dome on Mount Rota, the most exposed point on the Island. The geodesic dome was built of 1/8th inch fiberglass. It was quiet in there with no evidence of a storm going on. The brick building next to the dome was destroyed.
The thing to be in is Buckminster Fuller's invention, not a bunker during high winds.
BTW, the anemometer blew off the roof at around 200 MPH.
If there are any dumpsters in the area, and cars, trucks, etc., chain them together.
Dumpsters were rolling around destroying stuff, cars and 18 wheeler flatbeds and other trailers blown around and flipped over, metal buildings completely gone to the concrete pad.
My neighbor—a civil service worker—told me that at the base he works that the anemometer in the control tower stopped working at over 200+mph...the red tick mark marking high wind for the day was pegged at the top.
Unrealistic and unnecessary. How far from the water ? 100 yds? 20 miles ? Hurricane winds do the damage. Floods kill more people but wind does the damage.
I was in that typhoon also.
At Anderson AFB.
