Hurricane Irma made landfall in Florida on the morning of Sept. 10, 2017 bringing sustained winds of 130 miles per hour and widespread destruction not seen since the 2005 record-breaking “triple-punch” of Hurricanes Katrina, Rita, and Wilma. On this, the one-year anniversary of Irma, we should reflect on how Floridians responded, and what we have learned about hurricane preparedness. To that end, we surveyed a representative sample of 2,085 Floridians between Aug. 8-21, 2018.
