Watching the network morning shows this morning, it doesn't seem Helene was nearly as catastrophic as anticipated. Yes, many homes were flooded, but at least they're intact and most can be fixed up. One individual was all smiles floating in his kayak in his living room. That's the Florida spirit of "we'll get through this."
What? This will cost 100s and 100s of millions to rebuild. My cousins house is gone. Completely gone. Just glad you spent thing it was that catastrophic… clown a$$
Thank you Governor DeSantis for coordinating all these rescue efforts and making sure all Floridians are taken care of during these horrible events! You're the BEST!
I don't agree with all of Governor DeSantis' policies; however, he is really really good at dealing with these hurricane events. He's gonna be President one day.
Thank you Governor DeSantis for all you're doing for our state! And thank you from the bottom of our hearts to all first responders, police and lineman. 🙏
charlotte county we had water nine feet deep all the way up to my front door. We are water logged and needing help with tarps and wood for roof damages if anyone can help.
I felt so hopeless and lost after Hurricane Ian. To those of you who feel devastated just know that help is on the way. It takes a day or two for everyone to get to you but they are coming. You will be ok!
Praying from DFW, TX. ICE STORM IN 21' HORRIBLE. 22'. NOT BAD. LIVED IN TAMPA BAY in 50s IN GRADE SCHOOL. MCDILL USAF. ON BADE And Then TIGHT ON BAY. IN 5 YRS THERE WAS NEVER A HURRICAINE. PRAYING. BLESSINGS.
@@sweettina2 Well , you need to come for a visit.....after all this settles. I am in DFW, TX. THANKFULLY AT TOP. 8 MILLION PEOPLE IN DALLAS COUNTY. 30 Million IN TX. NOT COUNTING UNWELCOME VISITORS. BLESSINGS.
The loss of life could have been horrendous...but it wasn't. God be with those who did have a lived one taken. Tens of thousands of people were praying against this storm. It could have been much, much worse. Continue to pray... there is a possibility of more to come. Blessings to all.
I'm continuing to pray. Extremely greatful this wasn't as bad as it could've been. My heart and condolances goes out to all who lost loved ones, and to those who have lost thier homes and everything they have worked so hard for!! Hopefully we can dodge the bullet next time as well!! 💐😊
Gov DeSantis, you are doing a great job and appreciate the new laws implemented that prioritize hard working, law abiding good people who pay taxes. That said, given state and local government are busy enough doing the important work of keeping us safe, relax government to help citizens with the housing, insurance and HOA crisis. Let homeowners assume as much risk as they want inside properties they own free and clear so long as they do not impact health and environment. Get rid of minimum dwelling sizes and let us build and live however we want on our land. Leave the burden of inspecting and certifying structures up to buyers, banks and insurance companies. In Florida wind and flood can destroy any home regardless of your building codes. People need a realistic path to home ownership in a world where banks and insurance companies control everything. Regulate to protect consumers, not limit owners.
Everyone needs to watch out for scammers and thieves most of them after a hurricane look like or are the clean up crews from out of state trust me i live where hurricane Michael came through they will look like they're working at a house while stealing everything out of the neighborhood
Hi governor DeSantis. I want to say you are one of the best governors the USA . You have high scrubles in your character. I would that politicians would raise their service to the people . If you were my son or grandson, I would be humble proud of you.
Gov DeSantis is an amazing individual and a fabulous Governor. God bless him and his, and may he soon get some rest and be able to celebrate his 15th anniversary. Blessings 🙏
Praying for Florida and all the other states that are having crazy weather and praying for Israel! Jesus is coming wake up people 🙏💟🌞✝️🇮🇱🇺🇲🦁🔥💪👑⚔️🤺🔥🦁🔥🔥🔥🕊️🙌🔥🔥🔥🔥
Oh shut up! People like you just have to drag people through mud and throw it. You're miserable and want everyone to be miserable, too. Do you ever say anything positive?
It's nice to hear Desantis being a governor and behaving professionally. He could blame the hurricane is on LGBTQ and woke but, peculiarly, he's not. It's a breath of fresh air. Imagine what the GOP could be of they could just get over themselves.
Strange comments that don’t apply. Please show compassion to people who’re suffering and others giving a lot to help Florida’s citizens back on track as soon as possible.
The Democrat leftists are Communists! What do you expect? They are about nothing but the globalists that want freedom to end by giving up our sovereignty.
HELENE'S FLASH-FLOODING & 14Omph. WINDS -2024?? Helene hit like an atom bomb Consuming the helpless in its path. The waters of the deep surged forth Flooding everything with their wrath. The storms of life come to everyone There are none who are immune. Some approach in our later years While others come too soon. Conviction is our emotional union As we weather the storms of Earth. Thank God for His amazing grace Which helps us reveal our worth. Tears are a love-mates humble gift When it's time to say goodbye Though the eyes are wet and swollen With time and patience they dry.

The worst governor Florida has ever had bring back governor Rick Scott, please people wake up governor, Ron DeSantis, put our kids and school bus drivers, teachers in danger in the low poverty, areas, Miami Dade public schools all should have been closed to be on the safe side to assure our children’s safety. It was raining and lightning and flooding while these kids had to catch the bus to school in some areas there are down power lines that has not yet to be fixed with yellow tape around it homestead and Florida City SW areas no child should have to go to school in a storm or sit in school for indoor activities wondering what is happening outside are they safe without their parents during a major disasters whether we get a direct hit in our area or not hurricanes are unpredictable and that was very close and we are very lucky being on the South side at the bottom of Florida all schools should have been closed just to be on the safe side governor Ron DeSantis also turns down federal government funding to make our state look good for the Rich and wealthy, God does not like ugly and you wonder why these storms keep going towards the Florida panhandle Tallahassee wake up people we have a governor that clearly thinks about some, but not all. I hope everyone in the state of Florida is safe and if not, God will get you through it pray and put him first.🫶🙏
You obviously don't understand government. Governor DiSantis claimed the whole state to be in State of Emergency Monday before the storm. It is up to your county/city government to close schools. Don't blame the governor for that. You are blessed to have a well prepared, well organized Governor. You just don't realize how blessed you are.
Thanks to all the Florida teams. You are amazing people!
Thank you Governor. Thank you to all rescue workers and others who are working to help.
Thank you so much to everyone involved.

It was pretty bad S. of Jacksonville.
Excellent governor unlike the California one!
Shut up... he is perfect for the idiots in Florida .... that's why his presidential run was so embarrassing

Chat, does anyone know if Quincy has electricity and the condition of the county?
FL power n light says no outages. There may be some sporadic outage but mostly not. Hope that helps 😊
@ gloribyrd9259, I’m on the back end of Quincy and we have no power as of yet.

There are none who are immune.
Some approach in our later years
While others come too soon.
Conviction is our emotional union
As we weather the storms of Earth.
