Before Hurricane Milton made landfall, Cathie Perkins, emergency management director, warned people as she said, “This is it, folks. Those of you who were punched during Hurricane Helene, this is going to be a knockout. You need to get out, and you need to get out now.”
A man from Orlando, Pedro Caceres, had a plan to keep his house safe from the storm. He strapped down his home to the ground, as many people evacuated from the land. Caceres told that he came up with the idea from the time he was living in Puerto Rico.
Caceres used military grade cargo straps and he anchored his house to eight-feet deep to the ground.
He paid $3,000 for all of the equipment he used.
“We’re praying to God that this second hurricane holds our home like it did the first time.” Caceres’ daughter shared.
Later, an updated from the family came as Caceres’ daughter Raisa shared, “Update for those asking from Pedro’s daughter Raisa: ‘We’re doing good just went outside our home just now to clean up and see if any damage (has) been done […].'”
Update for those asking from Pedro’s daughter Raisa:
“We’re doing good just went outside our home just now to clean up and see if any damage (has) been done and nothing not even a shingle lifted but other than that just tiny damages nothing crazy. 🙏” https://t.co/42BdQK3vGp
