Kindly: If you don't have anything to contribute to helping the folks actually affected, maybe don't pick a thread for tools for affected folk to start political grandstanding.

For my friends who have lost their homes, this is extremely useful.

As we know from the history of many disasters, both response and recovery are _extremely_ dependent on the local environment.

Disaster planning begins with input from local professionals and local survivors of previous local disasters.
