Hurricane Florence Bonus

   / Hurricane Florence Bonus #11  
While none of the disaster choices are good I have to agree with Gary. If given the choice I would choose a hurricane over the others listed. You usually get days of warning in order to prepare for whats coming. In this case the predicted river level for our location was higher by about 4 feet than what we actually experienced. In looking at historical data from the great flood of 1945 and Hurricane Hazel in 1954 I was confident enough in our safety to not evacuate. In the worst case we still had 10-11 feet of elevation advantage above the predicted crest level. In regards to the previous question concerning refusing to evacuate and government assistance, I don't know the answer but since we have a good homeowner policy and FEMA Flood Insurance I wasn't expecting any help from the government. Thankfully none was needed. One last comment, I'm sure happy with the performance of my LS 3025, it picked up and moved those logs without missing a beat. Great machine!

FEMA flood insurance is government help. :)

FEMA flood insurance is government help. :)

Actually at this point in time I think it's the other way around, after many years of paying annual FEMA flood insurance premiums and so far never having to submit a claim, it's me helping the government. In any case it's worth it for the peace of mind it provides.
