House Lifts for Storms

When the weather is good, a specific home is level with the ground. If a storm occurs, the home contains water sensors which detect rising water. If the water becomes higher than it should, the sensors actuate a switch which raises the house similarly to a car lift in a garage. The lift would have the capacity to lift the home up to 40' in the air minimally. This device is extremely usefull in severe weather storm areas near water fronts. The posts must be capable of being stabilized in high rushing water currents equalling a whitewater river. The poles are similar to oil rig "legs".
