A couple of weeks ago, Hurricane Irene threatened the state of Florida and later deviated from its path, affecting many northeastern states. Dozens of lives were lost, roads and buildings were damaged and as the Miami Herald states, “More than seven million people and businesses from Folly Beach, S.C., to Portland, Maine were left without power.”
The power outages brought concerns for those who rely on electricity for their medical treatments. A Connecticut resident Pat Dillon, explained how the insulin he uses to keep his blood sugar levels in check needs to be refrigerated.
The wait to get the power restored expanded to ten days for some. Billions of dollars were spent in Federal Disaster Relief to help those in need. It is important to prepare during this hurricane season. Waiting until you are in the path of a storm to purchase a quality standby generator, should not be an option.
