This article briefly notes the devastating effects the tropical storm Isaias and the ways in which the storm has swept the East coast entirely. Underlying vulnerabilities to think about are preparedness on the part of the municipalities, housing stock, and its vulnerability to a heavy storm like Isaias, as well as household-level preparedness for a storm of this magnitude. Of course, with no one really prepared for the level of devastation caused by Isaias, little could effectively be done to counter its destruction.
