IIRC, it was "AGNES" that was the 'Big One' during my lifetime.

To see the muddy water levels on the buildings/lamp posts along the Susquehanna River in Pennsylvania near Harrisburg...just unbelievable, the power of water.

If another storm like Carla ever takes the same path that one did some insurance companies will be going bankrupt.

One thing I haven't heard mentioned anywhere...

The chances of Florida remaining a "Red State" have been greatly compromised, with the destruction from IAN.

Too many homes/residences are wiped clean, with just a slab under a foot of mud/sand...no infrastructure, etc..

Mail-in ballots equals fraudulent votes.

I'm skeptical it makes a difference.

Sandy would have been the worst, but Irene had such bad wind it blew in water into my apartment and flooded out the kitchen.

My poor kitty’s food bowls looked like life rafts floating in the water. She was not amused

Thanks for that information!

A new threat exists in the flood waters of hurricane Ian
An often overlooked hazard in Southern Coastal flooding (Louisiana/Florida), is what comes ashore along with the water. There are a lot of nasty snakes, snapping turtles, and other critters which wind up in your living room.

You cannot "COEXIST" with people who want to kill you.
If they kill their own with no conscience, there is nothing to stop them from killing you.
Rational fear and anger at vicious murderous Islamic terrorists is the same as irrational antisemitism, according to the Leftists.

Sanibel, Florida mayor says town decimated by Hurricane Ian: 'The perfect storm we hoped we'd never see'
Mayor Holly Smith said it will be long-term recovery effort as area is cut off from mainland due to damaged causeway
By Amy Nelson | Fox News

Sanibel, Florida Mayor Holly Smith said Hurricane Ian turned into the perfect storm she hoped she would never see in her lifetime. Now, her community is trying to recover from the unprecedented situation without direct access to mainland Florida.

Hurricane Ian collapsed part of the Sanibel Causeway, which connects the island to the mainland.

"We’re cut off," she said by phone on "America’s Newsroom" Friday.

Smith told Bill Hemmer and Dana Perino that the biggest priority is search and rescue. She said first responders started doing wellness checks early Thursday morning after the worst of the storm passed. 

"We did everything that we could to prepare. Everything we could to get the word out to please evacuate," she said.

She said an estimated 200 households remained on Sanibel Island during Hurricane Ian, but that number is growing as officials hear from more people who need assistance.

"We don’t know the number of people and pets that were in those residences. We’re getting that information as it comes through," she said.

I think I was about 4, but remember be carried by parents though standing water and wind.  (Carla).  Too young at the time, to really understand though.

Honestly, and going through this so many times, the biggest critter hazard and hassle are fire ants.  Everyone's legs and ankles look like measles after doing outside hurricane cleanup.

Apparently. Thankfully, the hurricane didn't affect any white people, on account of their privilege.

People are looking to Waffle House as Hurricane Ian makes landfall again—here’s why


Quote


As Hurricane Ian barrels into South Carolina after leaving behind a trail of destruction in Florida, people are keeping a close eye on something that might surprise you: Waffle House.

The well-known restaurant chain currently has 10 locations closed in the hardest hit areas of Florida, a number that will “fluctuate rapidly” as staff works to re-open and aid community members, Waffle House spokesperson Njeri Boss tells CNBC Make It.

Such closures are incredibly rare for the Norcross, Georgia-based chain, which has roughly 2,000 locations spread mostly across the southeast U.S. And they mean more than just a community being waffle-less: A local Waffle House’s status actually serves as unofficial shorthand for the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) to track the severity of a weather disaster, and how much damage it’s done to an area.

It’s known as the “Waffle House Index,” created by former FEMA administrator Craig Fugate after he and his colleagues discovered the last places that stayed open during Hurricane Charley in 2004 were Waffle House locations.

Did she actually admit that dispersion of government disaster relief money will be based on race?

Can this bitch be administered a congressional censure?
