From Hurricane Info Wiki
- starting EmergencyPreparedness; using TexMed's "Disaster Preparedness Resource Center as a start (see my post to Ning). OneStorm tries to be comprehensive. FEMA's TX/Ike page is relevant (see FEMA/hurricane); their "After Ike: Federal Support For Recovery Efforts", Federal Support For Essential Missions Continues", and "Response To Ike: Federal Agencies Support Search & Rescue, Safety Missions" provide comprehensive lists of agencies. Department of State Health Services' site is fabulous; by way of contrast, Read.Gov is a pathetic waste of electrons.
NB: I'm using CamelCase because that format mnemonic, being very much like what folk use in URLs.

Not a lot of time to schmooze. Reminds me of 3 years ago ... 'cept this time I don't have to be yelling "Get fresh water in there before it hits!!!", which you gotta admit, is an improvement.

Key text for me. (My EchoLink verification is still pending ... an unfortunate lag.)
* EchoLink If you are a licensed radio amateur you can monitor communications in and out of the effected area here. If you have an Echolink account, use one of the reflector channels (VKEMCOMM, N5API, KC4QLP-C) and avoid the WX_Talk conference during the height of the storm, unless you are filing a report. Even if you aren't a ham, you can listen to the interactions via this audio stream. The Interdictor gang is transcribing echolink traffic on the #interdictor-echolinkIRC channel.
