Floods are consistently the single most dangerous and costly natural calamity to befall people; Florida is so flat that the rain doesn't have anywhere to go in a hurry and so it tends to collect and sit for several days as it slowly drains out to sea. Many Floridians don't have flood insurance, and the roads may be closed due to flooding so they might not be able to escape. You have to drive a long way in Florida to find higher ground.
I tried to warn Florida this was coming over a week ago now. Been telling people in comments that are of it 7 days in advance after this same system came through Texas first.
To prepare for dangerous flooding, DeSantis put on his white Nancy Sinatra GO-GO boots. And he suggests Floridians do the same if they can't "knock on wood."
The most deadly and costly natural disasters are invariably caused by flooding. It doesn't sound bad until you find yourself living in a place that has several feet of water surrounding the house and wading through it can expose you to alligators, rattlesnakes and pythons. Your car is totaled and the roads are impassable and even if you could get out you might have to travel hours to get to higher ground. You might not have flood insurance either, many Floridians do not.
Now the people who have been panicking about drought are going to be panicking about too much rain. Lol.
You're not wrong.

People are starting to call Florida the “stink on the brink.” DeSantis should work that into his campaign slogan.
I just cannot imagine that much rain in one day??? Mind boggling. Best wishes for your safety.

A foot is a lot of rain - prepare now. Do not hesitate because once it begins, it may be too late with 3 inches an hour.
Oh, I am totally scared of the rain. Whenever I think of the least intelligent people I automatically think of the media !!
