  20. A natural hazard in Maine is a hurricane. There are many things people can do to be prepared for a hurricane< such as: evacuating if necessary, making a disaster supply kit which contains flashlight, batteries, money, first aid supplies, and copies of your information in case of evacuation. Stay in your home if you are in an area, and have plenty of water and food in case you lose power and water for several days. Purchase a portable generator or install a generator and stay away from windows. Secure loose rain gutters and downspouts. These are just some of the ways you can prepare for a hurricane.

  47. Well if it was a tornado, my family would have to go to a metal shelter. Or somewhere that has a bunker, since we don't have one.

    If it was a earthquake, we'd go outside behind my house where no powerlines can fall on us.

    If it was a blizzard, I'd stock up and canned food and little debbie snacks (Mr. Ruby does the same. c:) Then, we'd bring out the propane space-heater and we'd snuggle up, playing our laptops and phones.

    If it was thunder I'd hide under my mattress on the floor and eat more debbie snacks.

    If it was a zombie apocalypse, I'd feed Mr. Ruby to it.

  57. hurricanes have affected maine in the past, and they still do sometimes. Things people can do to prepare for tropical storms and hurricanes are: have a shelter with food and water set up, make sure their house is stable with nothing rotting that could make it easier to blow down, and make sure you have a way to get out, as always. :)

    ReplyDelete
  58. A hurricane can happen, and when you prepare you put all the furiture and things that can fly in high winds in a garage or basement, then you gather supplies and go get stuff at the store, then you use flash lights and not candles to see and not to drink tap water. Then if things are flying at your house hid under a table untill the hurricane dies down.

    ReplyDelete
  59. Sometimes, we are hit with the remnants of hurricanes which are then classified as tropical storms. They can cause flooding and damage to houses, so I would probably get all of the valuable stuff out of the basement. Also, of course, I would close the windows because rain in the house is not good. I would probably also not go outside for obvious reasons.
