IT IS HEARTBROKEN TO SEEN THE FOLKS HAVE BEEN THROUGH DEVASTATING WITH STORM HELENE. CONTINUE TO🙏🙏🙏🙏 ALL THOSE FOLKS. GOD'S COMFORTS AND RESTORATIONS TO ALL🙏❤🙏❤!
Stop rebuilding in flood zones, fools.
Time to buy stock in Home Depot again.
The last time this happened was roughly 100 years ago. 100 million years ago Florida was under water.
Your point? There’s another hurricane forming where Helene came from, headed into the Gulf!
@@lauriefrancisco1084 Point? Oh don't worry your little head about that. Keep subsidizing fossil fuels and attacking environmentalists and disregarding climate science. Btw, when a hurricane hits you be sure to ignore the media and stay home. Seriously, you'll be okay.... Stay home and don't leave next time a hurricane hits you. Got that little buddy?
Actually this is the third hurricane in two years to hit in that area, sorry that you were misinformed.
@@Plutogalaxy They said the strongest hurricane to ever hit this area in recorded history, not the first hurricane to hit this area.
Exactly
Rebuild? Sometimes you have to grab your head together here..Florida is a hurricane state, if you keep building it, the hurricane keep destroying it.. you're playing Russian roulette here
Not if you build on steel stilts with reinforced concrete walls, steel studs, steel shutters, and a refocused steel bolted roof, I have withstood four of these with my neighbors being flattened.
@@Benzene75 This is what happens when you building using wood. If you used solid cement or container homes that a bolted to the ground there will never be damage again. This is why houses in Europe and south America last thousand of years.

Same in tornado alley. Waste of money building there. Should all move out.
Meanwhile others will pay for their misfortune because we will have Insurance hikes cars and homeowners insurance😏
That’s a great idea, rebuild, tear it down, rebuild etc, etc. it’s your money do what you want, but please don’t be asking fema or any government agencies for tax dollars. It’s stupid to rebuild.
How many times does a government have to rebuild your house because you want to live by the water.....
Imagine that, a state that juts out into the ocean can be this badly damaged.
Continued of the word Hell is not appropriate. Nobody really that is alive can picture what hell is like.
True.
This is sad. 😢
Although I admire their resilience, maybe it's time to consider leaving as they are going to get more hurricanes and tropical storms over the next couple of years. The costs of cleaning up and rebuilding will keep increasing with insurance companies no longer prepared to insure.
Where would you suggest they go? Prices are through the roof. They still trying to get insurance to pay from last storm. Maybe they could go to NYC for free chit😢
"insurance companies no longer prepared to insure." I don't blame them. After Harvey hit, there was an article about a guy who got $800K from fed flood insurance to rebuild a $125K house 5 or 6 times. I think they were going to make them rebuild elsewhere.. or they couldn't insure. The fund was deep in red and that was a while ago.
Look back on 40, 50 or more year old shows. They talking about global warming then
What did you expect? They live on flat sandy ground,,, in hurricane land,, surrounded by the sea. 🌊🌀🌊🌪️
This is indeed The Worst I have ever seen! These people haven't had a Breath from the last, etc.. Devastation, May they have The Strength to Continue On! 💔🙏🙏🙏
GOD BLESS this world and help rebuild this catastrophe 🙏🙏🙏
God is not blessing this wicked world after what was done to God's chosen people starting with bringing them over here on slaveships!!!! His wrath is starting to be felt all over the Earth and he is just getting started.
Yikes, insurance is going to be totally out of reach. Plus this will get much worse due to climate change.
Climate change doesn’t exist. That’s a farce
Looks like storm surge washed up a lot of rubble. Looking at the trees, they seem to have fared OK, which is not the case in the more-powerful storms which level everything.
At what point do humans spend the money available for "rebuilding" on relocating?
Ask MAGA Republicans how they feel about disaster relief.
This is what happens when you building using wood. If you used solid cement or container homes that a bolted to the ground there will never be damage again. This is why houses in Europe and south America last thousand of years.
Not true. Metal structures will corrode or rust, concrete will suffer spalling and cracking due to water intrusion, it just takes longer than being washed away in the storm surge.
The storm surge will just bust through the windows, and cause mold to grow in the entire house.
@@gamingwitharlen2267 that is so not true. Hurricane strength window bolted in will not be effected and if you build with containers you can actually make the structure water proof.
@@raygunsforronnie847 right the same way the shipping containers don't last 100 years out to sea
What was that line about doing the same thing over and over and over again and expecting different results?
I would wait to rebuild. More hurricanes are coming 😭
Yeah like 500 years.
That looks just like my repair shop here in Lee !! We all got hit hard !!
They didn't suffer anywhere near category 4 wins that is straight water damage. If they did have cat 4 wins there would be no greenery left on the trees it would just look like tall sticks like after hurricane Andrew and even a lot of parts of Western browardafter wilmain Wilma was only a cat 2
@@kippaseo8027Not quite true... I've been through both Irma and Ian at ground zero. Lived downtown FM during Ian, with family on Pine Island. During Irma, I was with family close to Sanibel. Check it out. Both had Cat 4 winds. Irma had tons of sideways rain, Ian had the winds and storm surge and stayed in neutral fo way too long. Every storm affects the landfall area differently. Helene was moving fast which was beneficial to that area. She slammed in and kept moving. She pause long enough to strip all the leaves off the trees. Be glad. The winds were indeed at a rock solid category 4. But a fast moving category 4.
@kippaseo8027 Your information can't be more accurate than the Hurricane Center.
True
After Andrew,there was nothing left!
Andrew was a cat 5 with 165mph sustained winds and gusts well over 200mph. Can’t compare these 2 storms. It’s the fact this storm was booking It at 23mph Is why wind damage wasn’t as bad as It should’ve been.
I've been at ground zero with Charley 2004 (150mph), Irma in 2017 (130mph), then with Ian in downtown Ft. Myers (150mph) - with oak trees in front of my home. All three were Category 4 winds. Ian was 15ft surge. The trees lost a limb or two, but, the leaves remained on the trees.
Other commenters are correct in pointing out that comparing one storm with another simply is not doable. Each has its own unique characteristics. Helene was unusual in both her development and movement speed - and, the intensity of her reach eastward and southward as she moved NNE toward her landfall destination. I've been through many, many hurricanes on both Florida's east coast and west coast - and, each is different. Irma had sidewise rain that blasted into buildings and homes through the sides - not the roofs. Imagine that!
How many times should an insurance company pay to rebuild the same home? I live in MI, have had my home insurance for 22 years, never a claim, yet my insurance goes up every year. I guess I am helping to rebuild the homes in FL.
Same here in the North East. The worst part is most of the people I know who transplanted to Florida are always bragging about how great it is and how much lower taxes are........ well........What a wonderful opportunity for Ron DeSantis to show liberals how the free market system will repair Florida without the need for federal aid
Weather Mod.
Love the guy wearing the MAGA trump cap.....where's your cult leader?? Why isnt he showing face to help you all with this devastation?
💯🎯
These local talking head news dorks are better than any comedy movie or SNL skit. Asking the most ridiculous and rhetorical questions.
Stop building on a 5 feet above sea level lot. Come on folks.
The average elevation in Florida is about 6 feet.
Seems like there constantly rebuilding
Does that mean other
Peoples insurance will
Go up in order to cover
Insurance companies, losses 🙈😏
Yes , this is absolutely heart-wrenching. Thousands affected across many states all across the southern states. Keep us in your thoughts and prayers 🙏
Plus they carry tornados in them too. So, it could have had tornadic influence as well.
Thank the Dems for helping out with money. Hope these folks and the state actually see some of it too. GOP tend to funnel it elsewhere to help themselves.
Prophecy for them that's why Jacksonville was not touched think 🤔 about that 🤔
I’m quite sure your Cameraman has a telescopic lens on his TV Camera that could have zoomed-in on the tanks..
Insurance does not cover, hurricane or flood because we’ve been through hurricane before it’ll cover it
What a wonderful opportunity for Ron DeSantis to show liberals how the free market system will repair Florida without the need for federal aid
God bless all the people who were affected. It looks like the aftermath of Superstorm Sandy 😢😢
I feel bad doing a "thumbs up" for the video as this is horrible.. but I upvote the coverage. Damage is widespread and devasting over a huge area all the way into North Carolina.
Some insurance companies no longer provide coverage in FL. A few months ago some homeowners were interviewed and quite a few said they would take the risk of no coverage as they would not pay the high premiums other companies would provide. Can't imagine losing everything with no insurance.😢
European ancestry in real life. WORK.
You know you wouldn’t have to clean that up if you didn’t live there
Everyone whois saying dont live here in Florida then i suggest y'all find a new state to go to vacation, or going to any of the parks, the ocean etc. people have to live here to work at these places, run hotel's that everyone comes to stay at. Its easier said than done. Smh
Insurance companies need to stop insuring homes and condos in high risk areas
Drump has the best mops the best money can buy
Better wait till hurricane season is over before rebuilding as other hurricanes are on the way.
Another system is moving in by next Friday.
Was so very disappointed to hear the Keaton reporter use foul language never heard that from Fox before ever
Something happened alright not climate change but geoengineering
And hell well the media should be ready to enter therein by all the lies they pump up
Whhhhhaaaaaaattttttt??? 🤪😜😵💫🙄
@@jimmylieb5225Standard comments. Geo engineering, god, weather manipulation caused it!
That's right! No hurricane direct hit in over 100 years and we've had 3 now in just one year...maybe a 4th this week? Something isn't right with that.
NEVER WRESTLE WITH FLORIDA🐊🐍🐙🎈
😢
Mr. Trump hat will still deny climate change though
You must have fallen off the coconut wagon! Cackle, Cackle, Cackle.
The same thing happened in 1919 so that proves climate change is junk science...pure bunk.
The climate has been changing throughout world history, so you're telling me 20,000 years ago when the100' thick Laurentide ice sheet formed the great lakes and the great plains the Sabre tooth tigers and the Dire wolfs fired up their coal plants and jumped in their SUV'S and melted the ice sheet you🤡?🤣🤣
Fdjt
They should not be allowed to rebuild! I’m tired of my taxpayer dollars bailing out people who don’t have the good sense to get the hell out! And it’s only going to get worse!
Again, so the State of Florida should just be a ghost town? I'm assuming that means that nobody comes down here to vacation anymore. Why? Because there won't be hotels for people to run? There won't be restaurants for people to eat at because there will be no employees. All the parks down here no one will be here to work at then? What about the beach people who want to go to the beach and vacation where are they going to stay to visit? I guess not hotels because if everybody moves out then there'll be nobody here to run them. I don't think anybody really thinks about this situation. And sure let's just pull money out of our butts to figure out how to relocate to another state. Smh
A roof is richer over my head then people losing their homes who don't obey GOD.
Lunatic.
Florida is in for a thrilling future (and we know its not climate change)
Your delusional CRAZY
How many times are you going to rebuild before realizing something has to be done about climate change?
climate crisis
Why does God hate FL?😢
God hates all states that passes laws to protect what God calls disgusting and decadent in His Bible - such as Queers marrying Queers, Baby Killing, Gay Pride Parades and Going totally against Israel.. God says in the Book of Genesis - “I will CURSE those who Curse Israel and I will BLESS those who Bless Israel.” Just look at all the College protests, etc. against Israel trying to protect itself from Gaza and Hezbollah. These devastating storms are only going to increase and we can thank our President and VP for Trashing Israel..
And the White House?!…
MAGA 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
& stop telling me to do right. alright. I want to do right. & I know how to do right. Everyone's different, we're different, I'm different, you're different, yall're different. Leave me alone. I'll tell you to do right. & stop joking around me & for good. I'll joke around you & for good. So stop. & everything happens so fast.
Left Florida for South Carolina, quality of life skyrocketed. I dont know why people move to Florida
The definition of insanity.
2024 ✝️ 🙏
This is what you get for voting for Trump.
Up yours yt bot..puta..next storm your way right up your culo
Up yours puta
Now Trump controls the weather. You are delusional. I will pray for you when he gets elected.
You mean a sex change butt fucker. 😮
WTF does Trump have to do with it?
Prophecy for what they have done to black people in America 🇺🇸 🙄
Like rap music
Fatherless children
Drugs
STD
welfare
DEI
Affirmative action
70% incarnation rate
Etc
Solution, don't live in Florida.
South GA has damage ,North Ga has damage , East Tenn has damage, Western NC has damage N, and SC has damage . Eastern KY, Southwest VA has damage, besides throughout Florida . Where exactly do you suggest many thousands of people who have lived in these areas for generations pack their lives and families move to ?
@@michaelrains2268 , This moron is a useless jerkoff. Pay he/she/it no attention..
@@michaelrains2268 HOLLYWOOD!
Wherever you live you have to deal with some kind of weather
@@debrahelmlinger6256 Yes but may I recommend Arizona, where you just have to deal with the heat.
Sorry, it's god's punishment for electing Da Sanctimonious.
Is there even a gas station in Keaton? If they don't have federal flood insurance they are 100% screwed. Strictly coastal flooding event. Good luck wit dat.
It looks like they just piled stuff on top of things 😳 that's all just too get money 💰 😅
Now, they believe in SOCIALISM.
Have of these things the people did this themselves too get money 💰
Either build new houses from solid concrete or move to where the weather is more hospitable. Regardless, people need to vote democrat to stop climate change to stop more intense storms in the future.
Floatable house's. 😅
They can call Trump for help.
you rebuilt from past storms? but u continue to live there?
