And the busses have to get to the people and have a place to bring them and the busses need fuel too and the people would need bathroom breaks and food. It is such a mess. We made it through a bunch of hurricanes when we lived in South Louisiana and we moved to Metro Atlanta with the idea we wouldn't have to deal with that anymore. Surprise! It is heading this way.
we were living in NJ during huricane gloria ..we never expected to be in that much weather trouble north of cape hatteras. one of the mayors in the florida keyes is saying that they are using buses to help people w no means of personal transportation. bussing to shelters in ?miami?
