What are the four phases of Emergency Management? Disasters?

Preparedness – Response – Recovery – Mitigation

Well, you’ve heard of the Waffle House index right? I’m sure you have thanks to Craig Fugate.

But here’s a few other sure signs that your local economy is in the recovery phase of a disaster:

Ships have returned with lots of shipping containers with stuff.

Tourists. Lots of tourists have returned.

And the easiest sign that you have started the recovery phase….T-shirts!

Ahhh yes, the local economy is an easy indicator for disaster phases
