That will allow the larger community to easily see the prospective danger zones and routes for evacuation ahead of the event, and during the event be quickly informed of danger zones, as well as help coordinate disaster response. Any mobile device with a web
browser will be able to see the critical information you are providing. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

45 private ones there, so it would seem there is plenty of opportunity, not to mention the obvious need. NASA would certainly be willing to work with any international efforts to address this increasingly severe circumstance. There are areas there regularly
experiencing 300 to 500 centimeters of rain in a year! This is an extraordinary disaster, even without a high tide or a storm to exacerbate things.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
