MIAMI (AP) - When he retires as director of the National Hurricane Center in January, Max Mayfield will have spent 34 years guiding Americans through some of the busiest, most destructive Atlantic hurricane seasons on record.
But one thing still bothers him.
"This poll at the beginning of hurricane season and 60 percent of folks in coastal areas from Texas to Maine still don't have a hurricane plan," he said, referring to a survey released in May of 1,100 residents of coastal states. "And we have got to do a better job at that."
