A quick comment regarding the Apex fire story suggestions. In Northwest Florida many years ago several chlorine rail cars derailed and leaked in the middle of the night. Residents close to the derailment tried to escape the harmful fumes
by getting in their cars and driving off. Unfortunately, the chlorine gas saturation level in the area was too high and most vehicles would not start. Many families perished in their cars. Gas masks are great idea if you have to walk out. Probably the next best thing is to have a ready response kit that will seal openings, doors and windows if you live near a processing plant or railroad and you can’t effectively escape in a moments notice. Sometimes the window of opportunity to escape opens and closes quickly, even before you are ready to bug out. Awareness of the prevailing winds in relationship to your
home helps also.
Thanks for letting me send you my two cents. There are great ideas out there from all sources coming into SurvivalBlog…and the best thing is how everyone responds to other peoples’ ideas if they see a potential weakness or flaw. The comments are never mean-spirited and everyone benefits from from the multiple angles of viewpoints – drawing on what is best for their own family. Thanks, – “M” in the New Orleans area.
