    I feel like the people who should write an identifier on their body during a hurricane are the same people who wouldn’t bother to listen to government officials advise.

      Thanks for the link! Guys are super informative and seem to know their stuff. No idea if he’s affiliated with NOAA or something, first I’ve heard of him.

    It is a smart move for two reasons: it will allow easier identification in case, and it will bring home the message that someone not following evacuation orders should expect the worst.

    This is just the beginning, storms are going to be getting more and more intense and more frequent due to climate change. We should expect this as the new normal. Living in these areas hit by hurricanes often probably should plan on leaving long term.
