Creator's Key Takeaways

we do it every year and we hope we never have to use it so i'm going to knock on wood and hope we have no hurricanes this year

storm surge is actually one of the most impactful and problematic parts of a hurricane and accounts for about half of deaths

preparation is key because you never know when your area could be hit so it's important to plan now

port canaveral is not a safe haven it's not a refuge for anyone including vessels under 500 gross tons
