When the Hurricane Research Institute first determined that 2005 would be the most active hurricane season in recorded history, the researchers at the Institute alerted the federal government  The federal government sent out an alert to at risk communities within two weeks of receiving the alert from the Institute  Although the alert was sent out, the hurricane season proved to be the most disastrous in American history
It is obvious that the local governments of at risk communities did not heed the warning
the federal government offered all available resources to help protect the communities
