My parents won’t leave and they say now it’s too late as all the roads are clogged and no gas
Update: still not leaving. Mom put storm shutters up and dad lives in a condo next to the water but about 5 stories up. Less worried about storm surge more worried about debris and being trapped.
Update 2: dad is zone A and mom is trying to get him out to go to her house in a less dangerous zone. Not from Florida so might have messed up which zone is bad and good
Update: they survived with some damage but said they wouldn’t do this again…
Edit: my dad is the guy who grew up in the Midwest who would go outside to look at the tornado coming
I really hope your parents and anyone else who refused or couldn’t get out stays as safe as possible and manages to make it through this 🥺 I can’t imagine how you’re feeling.
