Thanks for the tours and all the coverage, you have been amazing. Sleep well and have a good rest because it's well deserved. Drive carefully and stay safe 🙏🙏❤
JLR thank you so much for showing us all of this. My heart goes out to these communities. Its only with you and other media that we can know what goes on. Again thank you.
Thank You, JLR. I'm in deep lamentation for Cedar Key, When my father went outside in his nursing home and perished outside in the snow, my husband and I left NC and went to Cedar Key. We got healing there, the wonderful people there. May all of them be blessed. I love and thank them for much as I do for you.
This is so bad. I visited there August 9th to 11th 2024. We stayed at Island Hotel and Restaurant. We ate and had drinks there at the outside restaurant (@13:03). I can't remember but I think it was Tipsy Caw, there was friendly orange cat there. I played with the cat while we had drinks. I hope the cat is alright. We walked to the cemetery from Island Hotel. Then. Started raining hard. One of the resident there offer to come to their car port abd even offered us to say in their patio. Nice people live there. I hope they are alright.
What about Ashville?? What about wildfires, tornados, earthquakes, floods?? Every area of our country has some natural disaster potential. How about having a little compassion?
For those of us who’ve been coming to the Key for 50 plus years this is beyond heartbreaking. Prayers to all who call this home and the ones that call this a great place to vacation. This will be forever changed!
They know the risks indeed and take the chances. The ppl that live there have the funds to rebuild usually. And FEMA helps a little at some point.Most of the buildings being unearthed at 40 min in are timeshares. I lived in Bronson, 20 min from there. Miss it everyday!!!
JLR, look up the FEMA 50/50 rule. If repairs are more than 50% of appraised value- they have to build to new FEMA elevation and codes. Crazy expensive, but gets them up above flood levels.
Not anymore. Not with climate change. Hurricanes are bigger, stronger and more devastating now. There's going to come a day in the not so distant future where they won't let them rebuild here and lots of other waterfront towns on Florida. It's already happening in some areas.
I haven't seen this much damage in my lifetime either. I'm 50 years old. There's a ton of flooding in the Carolinas and Georgia and lots of trees down. I have a tree on my house tonight. Those of you going through this hurricane, I'm praying for you. God bless.
Sorry you have a tree on your house been there Live in Louisiana Got a bunch cut this summer trying to be proactive Trees are expensive to get cut down
Bad in NE Tennessee too! Roads washed out, bridges gone. Many states involved with Helene. Life's changed forever. I'm 76 and have never seen anything like this in TN.
Correct. There was once a pencil factory and a railroad track too. I used to vacation there once a year for quite some time. Beautiful quaint island. I would have bought a place there but this was the main reason I chose not to. Too many darn hurricanes.
What a fantastic & very interesting tour of poor Cedar Key. I feel so sorry for the people who live there. Homes gone, livelihoods gone and your once charming neighborhoods decimated. 😢
While very informative to be able to see the damage, since we can’t be there, we actually live there. Some docks were gone from last years hurricane and before that. Some houses that you said the first floor was gone, never had a first floor. They were older stilt homes so not as high. The UF building, which lost it’s sign ( so you wouldn’t know what it was) was built with blow out walls on the first floor, specifically for this reason, I could go on, but I really do appreciate your efforts.
Thanks for taking us along on your journey. This was so interesting to see it all first hand. Get some rest and they will rebuild. FEMA will be there like yesterday 😅.
Biggest concern are any lives lost. Of course, picking up the pieces will be very difficult and traumatic, but at least that can all be replaced. The downside is, people’s whole livelihoods are ripped apart and they are now displaced while they wait to rebuild. 😢😢 I think it’s time we reassess these wetlands and marshes. These coastal areas were designed to absorb these hurricanes, but we filled in beaches and marshes to build communities.
It's both wind and water 💧 it's the wind that PUSHED the water up. Sad, sad, sad. Pray it never happens again. Pray all escaped this horrific storm. Be blessed ....
Thank God Almighty your safe and we need you . People will come together and rebuild that is okay your alive and I'm happy your safe okay don't worry we will build it back even better than before. Peace be with you
To prevent mold you need to cut drywall off so many feet above floor which looks like it has already been done in most of the buildings. I hope that the oyster beds are okay.
Such a huge and dangerous storm! Sad to see all the damage in Florida and other places. I live way up in Indiana and the wind is so strong here and its raining heavy!
The damage is extensive. Rebuilding the area is the only way to get ahead. Reinforced or heavy-duty building materials must be used, at least in the case of the first floor.
We were in Cedar Key in February 2024... We live on Amelia Island Florida, Cedar Key looked demolish in February! It is a tiny island with all the dune system gone.. It should be turned into a state park.. This tiny island is NOT meant for people to live on. Look at this video... the trees are fine, the Oaks, Cedars and Sabal Palms are all fine.. the native vegetation should be the only things on Cedar Key.
My God, look at the state of those houses? 😢 Geezzz those block walls were built so badly! There are not filled, no rebar, no nothing, it looks like they just stacked them on top of each other with zero structural strength. Why would they do it like that, and why for Gods sake they would live there? This is terrible, I feel pretty bad for all this people. I don’t think they even have insurance since there is no insurance company that would ever issue insurance in this area or do they? Thank you for sharing this with us.
I can’t believe what I am seeing my heart goes out to everyone who has suffered a loss!!! just hope they got out safely as that’s what matters most !!! Still the loss and devastation is undeniable and whoever or whatever these folks are please know I am praying even though that may not seem to matter right now but if your alive and safe then it does💕🙏💕🙏💕🙏💕
Thanks for your dedication in covering this devastating weather event. Places can be rebuilt and things replaced but there is no substitute for lives lost. 😞🌄🌈🕊️
Since hurricanes hit with a certain regularity, causing various degrees of damage, how often will an insurance company pay to rebuild in the same place?
Hopefully, Ron DeSantis will help you with funds. If his pride gets past Joe Biden to request it. Loved fishing there. But his policy about letting corporations run Florida helped people move away. There is no insurance for homeowners. Goodluck
I really appreciate these Cedar Key videos of yours. I watched you live yesterday morning. I wonder if you know how the Clam Farmer is whom you talked to in front of his house? Also, I watched live last evening here by another youtube channel WXchasing. It was worse than wild. As the water was gushing in, we saw someone swimming in the water (yuck) and then disappeared. Do you know about this, and if he/she is still alive? As I watch this I am very saddened by this whole thing. Hope and prayers to everyone who was affected by this devastating hurricane.
I saw that guy swimming also, twice actually saw him again swimming up the middle when the dude had his drone up. Were you watching the waves hit the blue house? I wonder if the blue wood walls on the ground, was it..?..?
I don't mean to sound rude fam, but clearly these people know the risks of living somewhere on a coastal front. If they are willing enough to invest their life savings in such a luxury, then they should except the loss without worries.

THAT'S WHY I'M SCARED OF THE WATER. I CAN'T SWIM AND I'M 64 YRS OLD AND BODIES OF WATER ARE SOO STRONG AND POWERFUL ‼️‼️‼️
They were making a comeback from the last hurricane also, what makes it even more sad
there was no "come back" in february.. the place was a wreck.
Thank
You for sharing please be safe 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻♥️♥️♥️🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻♥️
I hope you cover Carolina’s. I was glued to your channel for over 48 hours. Prayers to everyone in Florida ❤

BE SAFE 🙏
Leave the sea alone and move homes and business back off them
What about Ashville?? What about wildfires, tornados, earthquakes, floods?? Every area of our country has some natural disaster potential. How about having a little compassion?
There's more coming up the Caribbean Alley. Soon nobody will want to live within 10ml of the ocean.
You realize the sea level of Florida right? Cedar key is different from Miami and Tampa
Sorry for your loss. From the videos I'm seeing, many southeastern states have serious damage... even West to Tennessee. And it's still ongoing.
For those of us who’ve been coming to the Key for 50 plus years this is beyond heartbreaking. Prayers to all who call this home and the ones that call this a great place to vacation. This will be forever changed!
Such a beautiful little coastal town to spend the day! What a terrible loss! God bless all the residents! Our hearts and prayers are with you!
Looks like the ocean said we don't want your crap you can have it back.
So true
Good comment. I agree with the ocean!
This is devastating
So sad .pray for these people who lost homes and businesses😢😢
😢😢
HEARTBREAKING.....How do these people recover from this over and over and NO flood insurance??
They know the risks.
They know the risks indeed and take the chances. The ppl that live there have the funds to rebuild usually. And FEMA helps a little at some point.Most of the buildings being unearthed at 40 min in are timeshares. I lived in Bronson, 20 min from there. Miss it everyday!!!
JLR, look up the FEMA 50/50 rule. If repairs are more than 50% of appraised value- they have to build to new FEMA elevation and codes. Crazy expensive, but gets them up above flood levels.
No way would I ever want an oceanfront property! Never!!!
Not anymore. Not with climate change. Hurricanes are bigger, stronger and more devastating now.
There's going to come a day in the not so distant future where they won't let them rebuild here and lots of other waterfront towns on Florida. It's already happening in some areas.
Thank you Jonathan! You are the best! Get you some good nights sleep and take care of yourself! Your coverage has been awesome! 🙏🏻❤️
JLR is the man !!! ❤
PRAY FOR THE PEOPLE 🙏
🙏4 the animals 2😢
Haarp has been in full effect. So sad, all the weather manipulation.
Yeah, but they can't get it to rain in drought areas...hmmmm.....LOL
I haven't seen this much damage in my lifetime either. I'm 50 years old. There's a ton of flooding in the Carolinas and Georgia and lots of trees down. I have a tree on my house tonight. Those of you going through this hurricane, I'm praying for you. God bless.
Sorry you have a tree on your house been there Live in Louisiana
Got a bunch cut this summer trying to be proactive
Trees are expensive to get cut down
Bad in NE Tennessee too! Roads washed out, bridges gone. Many states involved with Helene. Life's changed forever. I'm 76 and have never seen anything like this in TN.
Watching from Michigan. Think I will stay in the country and play i n the snow.
I would love to play in the snow instead of hot & humid Florida all year long
Imagine all that stuff flying around at night..so dangerous
My family was just down there, we left day before the storm hit. So sad to see all the destruction.
Wow, no words to describe the devastation. I've been there very sweet little town. It will take years to rebuild it. So sad.😢
Praying for all those affected by this storm in every state
🙏🙏🙏🙏😭😭😭😭
Historically the key has periodically been wiped out by hurricanes.
I find it strange that a hurricane with the same name, making landfall on or around the same Day back 1958 it too was a category 4
WoW 😮 That's saying.. SomeThing weird or whaT 🤔
I Too have seen n had sTrange things This year noT 2 mention
is t called Cedar Key because at one time it was full of cedar trees ? everything is wood .
Correct. There was once a pencil factory and a railroad track too. I used to vacation there once a year for quite some time. Beautiful quaint island. I would have bought a place there but this was the main reason I chose not to. Too many darn hurricanes.
@@jchae35jcI agree 👍
you expect to see like roofing and lumber but when you see personal furniture and possessions it just crushes me..😢
I was in Cedar Key back in the 90s. I was a lovely little place. 😢
What a fantastic & very interesting tour of poor Cedar Key. I feel so sorry for the people who live there. Homes gone, livelihoods gone and your once charming neighborhoods decimated. 😢
They go though this every year. They build it so it's easy to replace
I 🩵 U……. I just knew you’d be there for Cedar Key damage.
JLR is on it! He's a million times better than the local news stations!!! ❤
It’s so sad. 2nd oldest city in Florida. A few of those homes have been standing for many years. 💔
While very informative to be able to see the damage, since we can’t be there, we actually live there. Some docks were gone from last years hurricane and before that. Some houses that you said the first floor was gone, never had a first floor. They were older stilt homes so not as high.

A follow up story in a month or so would be great - one thing about the USA is they rebuild.
Florida is not for the faint at heart. The hurricanes are fierce, insurance skyrocketing and housing is very expensive due to high demand.
Still better than NYs shit show.
Biggest concern are any lives lost. Of course, picking up the pieces will be very difficult and traumatic, but at least that can all be replaced. The downside is, people’s whole livelihoods are ripped apart and they are now displaced while they wait to rebuild. 😢😢
I think it’s time we reassess these wetlands and marshes. These coastal areas were designed to absorb these hurricanes, but we filled in beaches and marshes to build communities.
It doesnt look like much wind damage its all water damage
It's both wind and water 💧 it's the wind that PUSHED the water up.
Sad, sad, sad. Pray it never happens again.
Pray all escaped this horrific storm.
Be blessed ....
Yes the government has been doing things messing with the weather for a long time
It’s so sad how fast it can happen 😢 No more insurance companies
Thank you for sharing this with us.Our hearts are broken but we know god is still in control
I love Florida❤
People need to stop building so close to water
And that stops hurricanes?...got it....
😂😂😂 STOOPIT
Oh wow! My parents lived there for 8 years and never had a hurricane. So sad😢
It's so heartbreaking sending prayers
Cedar key has always been resilient, not sure about this one though
Thank God Almighty your safe and we need you . People will come together and rebuild that is okay your alive and I'm happy your safe okay don't worry we will build it back even better than before. Peace be with you
You gotta get a wind filter for your mic. Thanks for the coverage.
Omg this is heartbreaking!! What a devastating loss for this city. 😢🙏🏻
Cedar Key full time residents deserve first priority and the snow birds 🐦 can stay up north till they can face reality!
Look at it on a map its out in the middle of the ocean.
To prevent mold you need to cut drywall off so many feet above floor which looks like it has already been done in most of the buildings.
I hope that the oyster beds are okay.
Prayers for fl,and those whom have lost family and friends as well as their homes , God bless you all
Such a huge and dangerous storm! Sad to see all the damage in Florida and other places.
I live way up in Indiana and the wind is so strong here and its raining heavy!
The damage is extensive. Rebuilding the area is the only way to get ahead. Reinforced or heavy-duty building materials must be used, at least in the case of the first floor.
Yes. Lots of farmland impacted inland. DS after food supply. Weather modification is under patent.
Farm land is just fields. Hurricanes do nothing but provide water
Cedar Key is the most Hurrican area in Florida. It always had been. Builder high and strong.
We were in Cedar Key in February 2024... We live on Amelia Island Florida, Cedar Key looked demolish in February! It is a tiny island with all the dune system gone.. It should be turned into a state park.. This tiny island is NOT meant for people to live on.

WAS EVERYONE EVACUATED ⁉️
You are truly special!
💞 Thank you. 🙏
Sad😢 thank you for showing the reality
Thanks for sharing
JLR ,time to get medal detectors look for Spanish silver and gold treasures.
After hurricanes suppose to be best times.
JLR investigates treasures
Thank you. Much 👏
@jlr investigates can you to a side by side video of the buildings there before and after?
That's an island,,,,,, where do they put all that debris?
Nov 5th, Guy Fawkes night only 6 weeks away....
Thank you for sharing this. It😢 just so sad.
Thanks for your dedication in covering this devastating weather event. Places can be rebuilt and things replaced but there is no substitute for lives lost. 😞🌄🌈🕊️
Thank you for an amazing job.❤
Thanks for sharing with us
So nice to live on the water...except when hurricanes hit 😳 Guess you have to take the good with the bad
Since hurricanes hit with a certain regularity, causing various degrees of damage, how often will an insurance company pay to rebuild in the same place?
$$$$$$$ Idk..That's a good question 🤔
THEY'VE ALREADY STARTED CLEAN UP ‼️
What's up with all the unmarked white vehicles?! Government?
UN VEHICLES..??.. I DIDN'T SEE THAT...😮😮
@@Peggy-tj1ws seems to belong to some organizations fleet?! Also, who cleared the roads?
@@biscuits1963 NATIONAL GUARDS..??... IDK... CLEANUP HAPPENED REALLY QUICKLY...🤔
🤔
Water is as powerful as wind!
My friends have rebuilt through the years, but I don't think this will happen again. So sad.
Hopefully, Ron DeSantis will help you with funds. If his pride gets past Joe Biden to request it. Loved fishing there. But his policy about letting corporations run Florida helped people move away. There is no insurance for homeowners. Goodluck
PRAY FOR JLR 🙏🤗👍💙
They should enlist the help of salvage companys for the clean up
I just commented.. who usually does the clean up after these storms? Locals? Contractor? State?
😂😂 THIS HAPPENS EVERY YEAR!! Florida has millions of companies that do that.
Wow…this is just super sad. Thanks for all your coverage day and night. May God continue to bless you Jonathan! Always # 1 🎯

15 people died

Hello everyone
You are amazing appreciate you so much stay safe luv
Thank for your video man
Sad What Mother Nature Can Do! Why Build In An Area Prone To This Destruction! Insurance Will Be Key Here. They Can Rebuild.
Drive by the beach again I have never seen a sunset on the beach before🙂
Well what are you waiting for
Thanks for the show
I don't mean to sound rude fam, but clearly these people know the risks of living somewhere on a coastal front. If they are willing enough to invest their life savings in such a luxury, then they should except the loss without worries.
Your NOT Going To BELIEVE HOW FAST 1/2 Or More Of That Will Be Re Built I'll Say Give it A Month & You'll Be Amazed & 2 Months You'll Be Mind Blowed
I heard 20 houses in Keyton Beach literally floated away 😢
