We don’t fund education, especially in hurricane prone states. These are the same places that are told the media is full of lies and that things like sea level rise and juiced hurricanes are a myth.  It’s getting worse and worse. Expect more disasters like this where people don’t listen and just tap on social media about their surprise neighborhood destruction. 

And we will be told we’re politicizing everything and to shut up and have compassion for asking people to have common sense.

Lol when you always go worst case scenario, sometimes you’re right.

Has anyone heard from Fort Myers Beach?

Yeah pretty bad damage, much worse than Fort Myers itself(which was still significant).

Lol just saying “hundreds dead” was pretty stupid and irresponsible to the extreme.

How does the sheriff know that before rescue crews even go out? Some people really need to learn to think before they open their mouth. 

Agreed he probably shouldn’t have just guessed that

That precip shield seems to be completely stationary.

Freshwater flooding will be big issue.

Thanks - I knew they had strong winds all day. I got video from them around 11 am of the ocean being sucked away from their dock (it was WILD) but nothing since and it appears cell service is dead for them.  

Yeah I think cell service is tanked in that whole corridor! But pretty certain they made out okay!

Any surge reports from Sarasota? Family there and I can’t reach, they’re on the water. 

Think they dodged the worst, but still had some bad weather and flooding for sure.

11' in Charlotte Harbor???

No, sorry just for the storm high. 11 is highest I’ve seen.

Charlotte Harbor lucked out. Maybe the eastern shore got hit with surge as the eye pulled away but the big surge looks to be from Naples up to Sanibel. The major impact for Punta Gorda was wind, and I’m sure they got rocked. I wonder if it was worse than Charley. Probably lasted longer. 

Highest surge so far 11 feet.

And water still rising in Ft Myers. Up to 8.57ft.

That’s way up and on the River correct? damn.

Lol is surge bad there or not, sojitodd has me wondering how.

Some people can't leave for various reasons. Unfair to assume someones situation if they are stuck in it. My largest client is in ft myers and certain folks had to stay in the area for work. Everyone can't leave

Wow those work places should be ashamed of themselves.

nobody is going to come help at the moment. 

Ems are brave dudes, but this is beyond what they can do for sure.

I would assume the fire dept in that area suspended response once the wind reached a certain point. some people may be in a damn bad spot and could be waiting for a long time for help. 

Yeah there’s no way they should be out in this.

Next thing we have to look forward to is that guy who always shows up and says it wasn't a cat x because no such winds were measured on land.

Lol I remember him
