A great overview of safety tips on Surviving a Hurricane can also be found at: http://www.examiner.com/x-20121-Savannah-EMT-Examiner
Remember, storms are indiscriminate! They can destroy any part of the coastline and bring storm surge to communities over hundreds of miles. They don't recognize the borders of states or countries. Everyone can be affected and it takes a lot of coordination to prepare to save lives and property.
You can help by passing these articles and links to friends, family and neighbors who may be affected.
Current evacuation routes are not really adequate for getting everyone safely off these East Coast islands and amongst emergency management officials, fear runs high that masses of people may become trapped and die, as occurred after Hurricane Katrina.
Keep Safe!
