I think it’s a bit callous to say “evacuate! Don’t be stubborn and put yourself in danger!” As if there aren’t real barriers that make evactuaoon impossible and hard for people. Evacuate and go where? How will you live if you don’t own a car? What if you’re disabled or have someone in your house that is which makes it hard to execute and or find adequate shelter accommodations? What about pets like dogs and cats? You don’t have insurance for your home and if you stay you feel like you can at least do on the spot repairs.
Extreme weather crisis centers can be very overcrowded and aren’t always the best place for. Let’s provide some tangible information about how they can evacuate and find what they need safely instead of shaming people who were “too stupid and stubborn” to leave.
