"Waffle House has its own hurricane index and storm center". (From last week.)
The chain also developed the Waffle House Storm Index, which was started after former FEMA Administrator Craig Fugate said, “If you get there and the Waffle House is closed? That's really bad. That's where you go to work.”
Waffle House has labeled Milton, a Category 4 storm, as a "Code Red," which means the company has closed its locations in the path of the storm. A "Yellow" rating means that the location will have a limited menu and that the area might not have power. A "Green" index means the store is operating as normal.
