Here in this part of Arkansas we have occasional weather events, but they are usually more of an aggravation than an actual disaster like has occurred down on the Gulf coast. I spent some time down there when my brother and his family lived in the town of Houma which was, I think, the dead center of where Ida came ashore. I could have ended up staying down there, but chose to return to Arkansas. Kinda glad I did. Don't think I could have coped with those recurrent weather disasters where people are without the basics for who knows how long? Maybe weeks. And even after the electricity and water, etc. is restored, then you have to cope with the clean up and restoration of your home and hopefully your vehicles haven't been ruined by high water.
