I've never understood why people with those gorgeous big boats don't motor up the coast and out of the way. Hurricanes give a lot of notice....it's not like it creeps up on you.
I have to say every time there’s a hurricane there are boats everywhere , why would you leave your boat and cars there, when you could move these things out of the area
I only feel for the common people that had one simple house a low paying job with all the ridiculous insurance and privatized greedy utility service they have to pay.
When we would get notice of an El Nino in Southern California all my friends with boats and one in particular always took me out there to put the boat on a hydro hoist for safe storage.
No it's the worst part for me, driving around and seeing these big, gorgeous trees destroyed. The palms hold up really well tho, I guess they're kinda designed for it.
Sorry to hear it. I left Florida a few years ago because of the rising cost of living, traffic, insurance costs and lack of high paying jobs. I don't see how average people can "rebuild" if they can't even afford the rising cost of living. Only rich people can afford to "rebuild" or have a new 2 level house with hurricane rated anchors into the foundation and high impact windows built!
We are looking to move out of Houston as the area is long overdue for a major storm. We had a category 1 storm this year ( 75 mph gusts) and much damage to trees, lost power for 1-7 days from gulf to 80 miles inland. Unfortunately some trees landed on homes. The storm stayed at hurricane strength 40 miles inland!
You're one of the smart ones for leaving. I mentally couldn't handle that kind of devastation over and over again. It's the definition of insanity. I also don't understand why people still wanna move to Florida?!? Between the hurricanes and sinkholes, no thank you!
My sympathies go to the Floridians who had to go through 3 horrible hurricanes in two years. A European here, we used to go the Gulf Coast at Easter for 17 years, until Covid came. So sorry to see all the tragedy and destruction. God bless you all.
My girlfriends Mother has a trailer down there.. Just a few things blew around it.. Across the street was her neighbors nephews house he just moved in. That is the house with the dumpster on it..😢😢😢...
I have an Aunt in Sarasota. She luckily didn't have any damage, just no power. Her daughter went through Helene in NC and also no damage to their home.
How can one recover from something like this mentally,physically,financially etc etc...I feel bless right now just sitting on my couch staring at the walls
to lift up 2T dumpster the wind must be really strong, roof wont still their but in the video the roof still attach and minor damaged, second dumpster still on the ground, something wrong here
They said it was a tornado so that makes sense, and the second dumpster is probably to clean up debris after the fact. It does look well placed though and the buyers signed a week ago… could be an insurance claim in the making.
I like no commentary just look and feel and be grateful and help whichever way you can smiles and hugs an hands can be given freeely do small things with great love god bless
Palm Beach county over here. Much of the damage that you saw in our area (southeast Florida), happened BEFORE the hurricane even arrived. That damage was due to the sudden tornadoes that popped up. The tornadoes happened HOURS before the hurricane even made the initial landfall on the west coast. The hurricane winds we received were less than the winds of the tornadoes. So I say all of this just to put it in perspective for those that asked why didn’t we evacuate. We had no reason to. The tornadoes were the issue and remember, when you receive a tornado warning, all you can do is shelter in place. You only have minutes to react when tornado warnings are issued.
I'm so happy you survived....I livein Southern California. I have no idea regarding such weather issues - notwithstanding wildfires. God bless you and your family: peace, love, health, renewal, restoration, life, abundance....
With a storm like this... There are plenty of reasons to evacuate. Don't assume you'll just be fine. It could have been a Cat 5 instead of 3 and done 10x the devestation... Next time consider evacuating 🙏🏼
People in Appalachia are posting videos of their areas and there is a huge difference between large urban cities and rural. The media is focused on large urban areas and TV is showing carefully edited depictions of damage then focusing on government efforts of coming to aid and rescue. Rural areas are largely on their own relying on neighbors to set up command posts, find out who needs help where and assign neighbors to drive their four wheelers to deliver supplies and assistance, locals with Back-Hoes are filling in washed out roads with rocks & debris so trucks can pass, people using their own chainsaws and truck winches to clear roads. Rural is neighbor to neighbor effort and government is nowhere in sight. Leave me to believe TV images are carefully edited to give false impression of government coming to the rescue while people in Appalachia are on their own.
@@miken7629 it’s all relative to the area you live in,you live up in the mountains and you want help, it’s going to take a whole lot of time and work to get to you .This isn’t tv this is the real world
Most videos are showing shots of destroyed mobile home parks. That’s definitely regular people. Schools and hospitals probably didn’t have much damage because those places are built to withstand natural disasters and are used as emergency shelters.
@@d.n.8919 I stopped watching when I saw cranes”rescuing” expensive boats. Those cranes should have been rescuing stranded people. The owners of those boats should have been using their resources to help desperate people, not paying to divert equipment needed to save the belongings of those people. But this is the land of the free, people free to put their own needs first. Kudos to the first responders who put the needs of others first. The true patriots.

@@ITube4RealFunyou mean to tell me rural Oklahoma sees flooding and and surges up to 12-15 feet? Totally different, most of those people in Oklahoma have storm shelters.
I lived on the East coast for 30 years and honestly, with the exception of just a few major storms, this kind of devastation was rare. It has gotten worse in the last 10 years. Climate change is real. The oceans are heating up.
Unfortunately, crazy people out here only want to see death and destruction of buildings. They don’t ‘get’ what you are showing is, actually, destruction. WTF is wrong with our society? Praying for the 17 who have lost their lives and the survivors who now have a monumental task ahead of them, both physical and financially. FJB. FKH, FFEMA
Your comment is part of what is wrong with society. Maybe if DeSantis had not refused federal help in the days leading up to this and in the immediate aftermath, it wouldn't have ended up so bad. But no. He had to make it political. He cared more about his image than he did about the safety of people in his state.
@3:53 You know the storm was strong when you find a damn dumpster in your bedroom. I can only imagine...no...I can't even imagine just how many people were displaced because of this. The number is too large for my brain to handle. I know there were 'hot spots' that took more damage than most but how much of Florida, as a state, had to be evacuated?
Live in Citrus County not too bad here. No power for two days. One Really god thing did happen, not a single trump sign to be seen anymore. Thank God !!!¡
No doubt... if a High Rise building can't withstand the gale force winds what do they think the storm will do to a trailer home. How horrible for those who live in these mobile home parks by the sea.
My moms friend recently moved from a condo, not on the first floor, to a mobile home. Her home got destroyed in Helene. If she had stayed in her condo she wouldn't have lost everything.
Hey, I recognize that statue at 0:30! It's a traveling statue that was in our neck of the woods recently, in Nebraska. Now it has survived a hurricane I guess!
I just don’t understand why people leave such expensive boats behind like that in a hurricane. It’s my dream to own something like that and there’s no way I would abandon all that money.
Just a FYI, you cannot get into Spanish Lakes in Fort PIerce. Police are at the entrance & you must show ID & only open to residents. I'm surprised they showed no video's of Vero Beach which was hit by a tornado. Damage is insane on A1A between the two bridges.
I've done electrical work at the Trop. There's a big metal walk able ring at the top of the dome it goes around the entire dome. All the lights and cameras and Microwave transmitters are on that ring. Its suspended by cables. I have worked up there alot its a trip to walk around on it as the metal floor is steel grated and as you walk all you see 100 feet below you is seats and the ground. All the switch gears and electrical racks are destroyed by the water I bet. massive amount of works to replace all that given its locale.
Honestly, the ice storm in Canada was worse. Glad it wasn't as devastating as it could have been, and I'm sure the evacuation was good practise for the future.
Its all nice and dandy til this happens. Ill never live in Florida. I cant imagine the house insurance. Plus the fact that there is no where for the water to go becuase its all concrete
(why does my comment keep disappearing???) Any photos of Dunedin, FL?? I have searched and can find no information, photos about Dunedin and the effects of Milton. I grew up there as did my Dad... going back almost 100 years history and would like to know how they are there. Not sure why I can not find photos, etc. Never could I remember damage to Dunedin like I am able to see of the barrier islands.
For those wondering... Million-dollar homes in FL are still worth millions, just a bit less because they need repairs. And those will probably be minor. Very few of those hommes (if any) get totalled. That only happens w/poor people's homes, especially trailers. Boats are typically tied to several piers a bit lightly so they don't bang against anything hard during a storm. Alas, sometimes those ties break & the boats are dragged around by the water & the wind. The safest place for any boat during a hurricane is out at sea, far from shore, but many people can't do that (or don't dare). Add to it that many "Floridians" don't actually live here & a hurricane finds their boats as they last left them, not really secured for a hurricane. Honestly, I have little sympathy. It seems they're too dumb/cheap to make arrangements w/a local to secure their boats properly if they're not in town, or are rich enough to not care if their boat is lost. I save my sympathy for those who end up w/the damn things in their livingroom or crushing their cars.
The dumpster on top of a house is wild, like how...

It could happen anywhere, but you're alive to tell about. Sending love, strength your way, many many blessings to you.
