Most people will have radio and perhaps TV, however satellite services are affected by heavy weather and so can digital television signals as well. If you know of people in those situations, there is a way you can track storms online using various websites. It is possible then for you to update relatives or friends who may not have access to information on that level.

Although we would expect that in those areas, the local authorities will keep their citizens informed of what is happening and whether there may be a need to evacuate. Certainly in places like Louisiana and especially in New Orleans last week, we saw that the lessons of Katrina have been learned and the Mayor ordered the city to evacuate with a good amount of time to spare.

Today we found this site from a former television meteorologist which show’s pictures of the path of the current threat Hurricane Ike. In light of what we’ve written above, maybe this type of information is more for our own comfort, rather than those who may be in the path of the storms.
