One of the local resident
Admitted that they know the

advance. Since they have been
living in the coastal areas
throughout their lives, they feel
that They are so familiar with
the sea. Winds and seas are
daily phenomena. However,
due to the storm warning they
did take some precautions- Just
stay home and not to go work to
sea. They admitted they never
expect such an impact, even by
the elders, who had been living
in the area for more than 80-90
