#2 Don't expect the news to be pretty. If the building code is anything like when the Earthquakes hit then I expect coastal towns to be rather flattened. Along with the people.

#4 Adequate building codes make a HUGE difference. A category 5 cyclone with gusts up to 300km/hour ripped through my home area last year and not a single human life was lost. Made a mess of everything though.
