I've never been in a hurricane, so someone needs to educate me. Is the flooding caused by ocean water or is it from the rain?
Because if it's from the rain, then wouldn't it be a good idea for everyone living in those areas to own a Katadyn water filter?
The force of the storm from the winds basically blows the ocean past high tide and into peoples buildings.
Izzy's correct CBGC. Think of storm surge like a wind driven tsunami.
I don't think a water filter is going to be effective because what's contaminating the water is not just bacteria, protozoans, and viruses, etc, from sewage but also oil, toxins (from businesses, etc), and stuff I can't even spell.
Think about filtering water out of a pothole and magnify that several million times...
