The 10 Worst Things You Can Do During Severe Weather

[Aerows]

30. Most of us do this -

we create them, and when a storm is coming, we nail them in, because we don't get mild wind and rain like 90 mph. We get sustained 100+mph winds and you have to nail it in so that it doesn't blow away and fly into the neighbor's house.

I have wood coverings with markings according to window that have lasted for six hurricanes. The second to last one was Katrina. I have Isaac, and plenty of others.

My suggestion is that people that don't live in hurricane territory not offer advice to people that have lived there for decades. If I sound indignant, it is because I am. A hurricane is not a tornado. You wouldn't box up your own home in the case of a tornado maybe striking it, or an earthquake, either.

If you don't live on the Coast, you probably don't know what we all do since we have been here throughout a bunch of them. But thanks for your input, since it was incredibly helpful, condescending and none of us have ever thought of that before!
