My parents live in South Florida and they're all ready and bunkered down. It's been near on impossible to buy drinking water and gasoline for days now and if you do luck out and find it, you'll have to spend hours waiting for it. They also entertained the idea of leaving via plane for somewhere, but the ticket prices are insane. They can find cheaper flights to Asia than New York, it's absolutely ridiculous. Plus that and not knowing when they'll be back because of power outages at airports, damage, cancelled flights, etc.
I can't believe the people who have (and will be) affected most by disasters in these states mostly voted for Trump - the man who slashed the EPA budget, who entertained slashing FEMA's budget, and who thinks global warming is a hoax. My parents are staunch Democrats, for the record.
