Some experts are predicting that many of the Florida Keys will be underwater within the next 20 years. This will not help.
The 1928 one where Lake Okeechobee flooded was the deadliest in Florida. But since it didn’t damage coastal cities, it isn’t widely known.Storm surge not looking good in Ft Myers.
I was curious about this statement. If you are curious its true but pretty meaningless, especially in context of my perceived intent of the poster. The sea has been rising that long, but the intensity of the increases in the past 100 are on a different level. The increases are also accelerating.https://ocean.si.edu/through-time/ancient-seas/sea-level-rise
TAMUI do know, Newsie is right on you knowing ball.
I hope Lenny is staying safe...My wife has family living in Cape Coral and they just evacuated yesterday... unfortunately, her cousin who also lives there is at the hospital with triplets in the NICU and cannot evacuate. I hope they're all right.
I've been thinking about Lenny, too. He hasn't checked in -- probably too damn busy. But I hope he and his loved ones are OK. This has developed into an incredibly devastating storm.
My 92 year old Grandma lives in Naples, currently in an extended rehab/assisted living facility. Very much a medical forward sort of place that is very nice.Well, we found out today that their backup generator...DOESNT WORK. And it won't work for days. So they have moved many residents into a single big room with special outlets and are rolling in beds like a dorm. Some might have to be moved to other facilities. She's doing fine, good spirits and taking it all in stride. But absolutely absurd for that sort of facility. Much less one that charges what they do.I can hear the lawsuits intensifying equal to the strength of the storm itself.
GuysI am fine and very appreciative of your concerns. I’m actually in Chicago for a little business and my 60th grammar school reunion. I head back Sunday. My wife is home and reports that we have 3 inches of water in our villa and more than that in our garage. We’ll lose some “stuff” but she’s OK and it’s just stuff. All in all we’re lucky - sadly many will not be. There will be a lot of real suffering.
Glad to hear your wife's OK, Tony, and even if "it's just stuff," hopefully it won't be too difficult for you. There certainly will be a lot of real suffering in your area, and these events are always so sad. We're all thinking of you and your neighbors.
