We are in the midst of hurricane., season, but that
doesn't really concern as many people as it should.
• That is because this area has not been dirtxtly hit by
a-hurricane in recent memory. The last time a hurricane
came close enough to cnuse heavy damage was
in 1944. The March 1962 northeast storm did cause
hurricane4ike darroge, but that storm, too has faded,
from memory or was proboWy not experienced by
" mo&t people here today.. • t . . * .

br.wind and"water,""storifipreparation Is. probably"
meaningless. Unless you have had to evacual^youx
home or business,/the worry about the safety of
loved "ones and possessions is probably foreign.- ,.-
