Today's episode is actually the second video lesson in our new course: Hurricane Plan 101 - The Big Question - To Stay or Get-Away.

As the title of the course says, it is about empowering you with tools, data, and resources so that you can make the best possible decision about where you will ride our a tropical storm or hurricane, if it hits your area.

In this lesson, I give examples of the impact of storm surge, and how scientific models are used to create hurricane evacuation zones. We look at some example maps and talk about the way that authorities use these to guide the evacuation decisions for people living in low, coastal areas.

We will be following up with episodes based on the other lessons over the coming days.
