Afterwards, this orange boy comes waltzing in through our back door, soaking wet but otherwise unharmed. We were SO RELIEVED that he was okay. As I’m writing this, he is purring and making biscuits on my chest. This was a harrowing experience, but I’m just glad that my partner and Frankie are safe and healthy. We are so fortunate that Frankie was able to harness the power of the brain cell to find a safe hiding place during the storm.
We are still without power, but luckily, we have not had any damage to ourselves or our house.

With natural disasters come costs. According to a 2025 report by Time Magazine, the number of calamities costing more than a billion dollars has increased more than sixfold since 1980.
To put things in perspective, 96 natural disasters caused more than $546.3 million in damages from 1980 to 2000. In the two decades that followed, calamities rose to 244, incurring more than $1.95 trillion in damages.
