hurricane risk mitigation

Hurricane risk mitigation involves taking steps to reduce damage and protect lives before a storm hits. This includes building structures to withstand strong winds, creating flood barriers, and improving drainage systems. Planning evacuations and early warning systems ensures people can move to safe areas in time. Land use policies may restrict building in high-risk zones. Regular maintenance and weather monitoring help predict and prepare for storms. These measures collectively minimize economic losses and enhance community safety, making hurricanes less destructive and more manageable.
