The state asked for $929 million, most of which would go toward initiatives like fixing homes damaged by flooding, supporting farmers who lost livestock and funding mental health services for survivors. https://www.mcclatchydc.com/news/nation-world/national/article173591841.html quote:More than $130 million in federal disaster relief funds is being withheld from North Carolina amid a deluge of claims from victims of Hurricanes Harvey and Irma, according to the director of the state’s emergency management department.

WoodrowSkillson posted:Harvey was only 80 some dead though. If it does not landfall at cat 4-5 then the danger is flooding, and in general not that many die from floods they know are coming since you need to be trapped in some way to avoid rescue completely. Like in that warning list earlier, it's people in cars, the elderly, and children most at risk since grown adults can often clamber into a roof or something and avoid actually dying. also houston has like 5x the population of eastern nc

Perry Mason Jar posted:Wasn't Sandy a tropical storm by the time it bitch-slapped NJ/NY? there's essentially no coastal building regs up there on top of that nj which has a coastline similar to the southeast put up a bunch of concrete seawalls which made things worse because they negate the effect barrier islands have on dissipating wave energy plus they trap storm surge water in the estuaries immediately to the west
