I lost my house in 92 in hurricane Andrew. I remember hearing neighbors and other people saying ahhhhh I’m staying here. We will be fine. When I got into homestead (I fled the storm using common sense) the same people were on their knees just petrified from what they just endured. If you have the capability to leave during a hurricane, I would say, do it.
Hurricane Andrew was the worse!
I remember it well, unfortunately. I was providing auxillary support from Langley AFB in Hampton VA at the time. I will never forget the trauma on the faces of the citizens impacted. As I monitored this hurricane, I kept thinking of Andrew.
I’ve lived in areas my whole life that have hurricanes that are usually followed by some flooding. I lived through Hugo, Andrew, Katrina, Floyd, Charlie, Florence, watched Sandy on TV, and then 3 storms over the past 6 years that had *heavy* flooding in my area. Everytime we’re (the public) are told “GO NOW OR DIE!” the storm will wobble and ultimately weaken. After this happens enough- 3or4 times- you become a little numb and a lotta skeptical to the warnings and hysteria. And then *BOOM*
a storm like Sandy. Like Ian, and add the unreliable US Weather Service models (European Service has WAY more accurate models) that are used by most outlets and followed by most Americans and you have a horrific recipe for catastrophe. Again. And again.
Sorry but this is something I started noticing about 20 years ago and sorta followed when I could and it’s astonishing how INcorrect the US models are compared to the European models and compared to what actually happened. mind boggling imo.
Whew 😅 thanks.
I read that over 7000 bodies were recovered after hurricane Andrew, and it was covered up by authorities. They probably didn't want to admit that proper warnings were not made and procedures were not in place to save these people. Same thing with the deadly Joplin tornadoes, the death count was grossly understated.
@@SoundOfFreedom67 the migrant illegal farm workers were not included to the public count. It wasn’t 7,000 but it was way more than the 59 that they claimed. I talked to a truck driver who was commandeered to fill his refrigerated trailer with bodies.
Good anchor. Very thoughtful and compassionate.
We lost ours on the boat...
For what doing his job get a life oh the comment came from a woman TYPICAL.
NOT like Dumb Lemon that talked about $$climate change. Sicko
We want news people to tell the news, not be activists and emote on camera.
I agree with you 💯
And then you see videos of people swimming out in the surf and not taking this hurricane seriously. Very sad
I saw that too, and was like wtf. Why are people even allowed to be doing that. Im all for freedom, but in times of natural disaster, nobody should be jumping waves during a hurricane.
One things for sure, if people are doing that, and get swept out, NOBODY should be risking their lives trying to save them. At your own risk, or stupidity.
And with small children. What’s wrong with these ppl?
It’s like standing in front. Of a loaded gun
“I can take it”
@@chocolatetownforever7537 I saw in the comments of an Earthcam like live video comments section that a woman had actually called king distance to the authorities to report those knuckleheads. Unfortunately, she was told that due to the conditions, they were no longer going out & about so could do nothing about it.
I have in FL all my life and never have heard of that many people passing during a hurricane. I believe the flooding was the main factor. Very very sad news this morning.
That’s because it’s not true
@@Jack-russell103 I hope not.
@@Jack-russell103 yeah, he says they are expecting....and no one else is reporting that.
@Caridad Revilla people die every hurricane because they don't listen. They get complacent. The report is estimating numbers not stating numbers.
I agree, I stayed through a whole lot of them.
This was realistically a Cat 5
That came on top Florida .
Even Central Florida got slammed where flooding occured 2 stories high . smh. Really sad . light & love to everyone . Big thank you to firemen and rescue workers

Yes fizz but its was almost 5 end probably 5 doesn't matter Florida under water and sadly 100s died ! Big thanks to Firemen & Rescue workers ; see In2thinair youtube and mrbbb131313

DeSantis needs to be investigated for each of these deaths!
They don't leave because of looters, their pets, got no car, got no money, and very bad experience about what goes on inside those shelters. Not to mention I 95 is one giant parking lot.
Your right. During hurricane Michael we had tons of looters, most of them from other states.
Looters isn’t worth your life! If you risked you life because of looters and material things. Sad to say, but that’s on you.
@@dominiquemassey9928 true, but for someone who has very little and just what is in their home, they value what they have and want to protect it from criminal opportunists preying on their moment of vulnerability.
@@dominiquemassey9928 I don t live in a flood zone, but I know people that don t leave and why
I don't think it is responsible to make such statements when you have no knowledge of how many people have died. These same kinds of statements were made after Andrew in 1992 and it turned out the death toll was far less than anticipated.
Let's focus on cleaning up and recovery and hope most of those people evacuated.
Unfortunately, there are some people who cannot evacuate due to circumstances beyond control. I am such a person here in NW Florida. If this beast had come here, I have no choice but to ride it out, because I have to take care of someone who cannot be evacuated. God speed to these people in SW Florida. It's time to get to work.
People that can't physically evacuate should reconsider living in a hurricane prone state.
@@elainejonas7836 will you pay for them to relocate?
I can relate to having to care for someone who is immobile. It is no simple task especially if they have memory problems too.
I know there were a lot of able bodied people with plenty of money who stayed too. Surely some of them perished because they didn't want to leave.
I think its all about perspective when you say "can't be evacuated". There is always a way. Changing your mindset is hard tho and most people aren't up to it.
@@Caligulita why should I? They should have chose another state to live in. I live here by choice. If I choose to move, I wouldn't ask for hand-outs to relocate. If they chose to live here & can't evacuate - that's on them. Lmfao why would someone think they are entitled to someone else paying? I said they "should" reconsider living here. If they can't afford to move, that isn't my problem.
Prayers for the families who have lost loved ones. Prayers for healing and strength at this time. This is a sad day in America.
Shut ya dumbass up prayers would been no hurricane at all
Our son is in Lee County as a National Guardsmen. They were stationed in Fort Myers. I spoke to him last night nothing so far. I am heartbroken for Florida and for our guardsmen as they begin moving into those areas to help rescue and recover.
Prayers for your brave son 🙏

Don't be racist.
I love how we are blaming people in Cape and Fort when they were never even on the radars path until it was too late to move. Ffs just pray for people or head down to see were you can help. Lets not rub salt in their wounds ffs
That area was still in the cone of uncertainty, they could have payed attention and left no excuses for them the entire track they didn't have locked down, the models couldn't pinpoint exact location.the only people who are not to blame are those without any way of evacuation.most of those otherwise is due to ignorance plain and simple.sad people lost lives, but during these situations a person has to stay aware, our people here in this country have gotten complacent no matter what the problem is
Exactly. News kept talking about Tampa and Tampa Bay area. In the meantime people stuck in I 75 with a Hurricane. Nobody is safe even if you drive inland. I am nit sure how many shelters would except people with all their pets. Realistically the rest areas might be ok but guaranteed there will be no room for shelter.

I wonder if those 3 guys that jumped off the pier into the swell at Fort Myers Beach survived. One of the dumbest things I've seen live streamed...
Governor commenting on Sheriff statement: “None of that is confirmed. I think what that is, is there were 911 calls for people saying, ‘hey, the water is rising in my home, I’m going to go up in the attic but I’m really worried,” DeSantis said. “Of course, those folks are now going to be checked on and I think you’ll have more clarity about that in the next day or so as they’re able to go to those locations to determine whether people need services or are able to be rescued.”
Not everyone has the resources to rely on to leave so it's so sad.
Well it doesn't do you any good if you are DEAD!! Just go to one the sites.They even have sites you can take your pets. That doesn't take resources just common sense.
We have a good family friend who lives in Fort Myers. We haven't heard from him since yesterday; I really hope that he's alright and not the worst case scenario
That's rare for Florida. Hurricane deaths are usually sparce, especially in hurricane country. My heart goes out to the families who woke up today without their loved ones. I also hope there's people alive that are simply presumed dead. Maybe hiding in the rafters of the attics of some of those homes. No one really was expecting it too be this bad. The night before landfall, I'm calling foul on just about every meteorologist. At 11pm the night before, the eye of Ian underwent a replacement cycle. It looked a bit disorganized and the untrained eye would see a weakening hurricane. Meteorologists were quick to claim that was the beginning of a weakening trend the models had been hinting at for many days. Wake up 8 hours later to almost a Cat 5 bearing down. I'll admit, the models really did show only a Cat 1 or weak 2 at best the day before. Once again proving hurricane guidance is not seeing ALL the variables that shape, build and direct these monsters and how there's plenty of room for improvement. If steering flow forecasts are off by just 1° or 1 to 2mph, over just a 100 mile path, can equate to a vastly different landfall location. Hence why Tampa Bay was spared being destroyed as predicted just a few hours before. We aren't done with Ian. The Carolinas, Maryland and Virginia is in for 6 to as much as 10 inches of rain and gusty winds over a large portion of the area. Never underestimate a heavy rain event while a tropical system is involved. Ian will be with us til atleast Monday if not longer. Stay safe everyone.
You can't predicted mother nature. But at the end of the day what happened is what always happens. People lulled into oh that's what they always say this storm is a killer which passes by as a kitten. Well ian was a tiger.
Nothings been confirmed except for 2 deaths
I follow Ryan Hall youtube and he predicted Ian to be cat 4 or even cat 5 a week ago and he is usually right in predicted the weather. Much much better than the government or tv programs
"No one was really expecting it to be this bad". Yea thats precisely the problem. What the heck can be done to explain people to get the heck out in time? What, glued to the screens till the last hour trying to figure out from TV whether its going to be a category 3 or category 3.5? People don't even know what these categories mean. At least remember this lesson. Just listen to people who know better and get the heck out of there when they tell you to.
This isn't close to reality.
This is colored people news.
They don't know up from down.
To those who are unfamiliar with the area, matlacha is a very small island off the coast of Cape Coral, they’re connected by 1
Bridge, my sister chose to stay on matlacha and it extremely traumatized, she was rescued by boat this morning and were thankful she is alive, however devastatingly she watched 2 of her neighbors get on a boat as the eye was passing matlacha (they thought the storm was over and it was safe to flee, no one had internet to make sure) she watched her neighbors disappear into the distance and just minutes later the eye had passed and the eye wall was hitting matlacha 3x as hard as it was before, we do not believe the 2 men made it alive
V , 😭😭😭 as I am watching these videos and listening to the weather news I find myself crying. I can't imagine the heartbreak these people are going through. I am a praying woman and believe that God hears our prayers and will provide because He is Sovereign and Loving Father. May you receive the comfort and peace for your soul 🙏💖
Update?
Its very sad that people don't take these storms serious enough to get out of its path. I watched 3 young men on a pier camera in Fort Myers playing in the water as the storm was pushing waves onto the beach pretty violently. Sad to think those 3 probably are among them. :-(

@@tbessy1963 If You Not From Florida Stfu
@@tbessy1963 wrong time dude. Politics are melting your brain.
They had pretty much hours notice, central flordia was under the impression we were getting hit and already trying to get out tying up traffic so they couldn't because the news didn't have it to hit them
@@Shepardluver false. Evacuations started 2 days before the storm hit. It was very clear that it was coming somewhere near Tampa.
I live 100 miles north of Tampa, and everyone around me knew when and where the storm was coming, within a reasonable margin. The governor and his task force did an excellent job of establishing support, to include shelters all over the place.
Anyone who was in the path of the hurricane chose to remain there.
😢😢😢😢 wasn't expecting to hear this at all this morning...Knew there would be catastrophic flooding because of the size of Ian but so much death I'm numb...with tears in my eyes my thoughts and prayers are with their families and friends...may they R.I.P💔💔
I Wasn't Either...Im In Tampa
Ya I think that governor needs to answer some questions!!!! Like did he invest in assisting Floridians who don’t drive etc. or is he only interested in frivolously using tax dollars to relocate immigrants into democratic states as a joke instead?
@@cloudie9druoid172 Shut up! Let’s confirm this crazy death toll before we start pointing fingers!
Fake news! Sheriff said he is anticipating hundreds of deaths. Not even a body count
Governor desantis did more than any dumbocrat. What about Biden not calling desantis to see if he needed anything. He was taking a page out of the obiden playbook flying migrants to red states. How about mayors getting people out. We can tell who you voted for and your hopefully dead parents. They’d be embarrassed of you.
OMG. I am so sorry for the family that has lost a love one. Today my prayers are for them.
Polk county Florida here we got hit hard and it was a rough ride last night and the sounds where horrific thank god its over but we are alive. I pray for the families of those lost I'm just finding this out now 😢
My heart aches for all. I’m so sorry 😢 My prayers are constant.
So devastatingly heartbreaking. So, so sorry .

@@blakespower Exactly. These people always say “work” “no time” “can’t leave” stop the excuses. Would they rather die? cause at this point I think so

@@blakespower They apparently had a place to go, the cemetery.
@@embossed64 wow, how cruel.
So heartbreaking that so many had no place to go or financially could not leave, rest in peace 💔
True 👍
no excuse... plenty of time... how couldn't they evacuate? we k new the hurricane was going to have bad storm surge go to a shelter... we knew the path for 1 week before it hit about.. we knew anyone on the west coast needed to be carful and prepare to evacuate atleast 3 days ahead
There were lots of resources available and shelters
I understand people didn't have the financial ability to evacuate and get a motel room for even a day maybe but there is zero excuse not to go to a local shelter, they're free!!!
Here in TX, they pick people up
( in buses) with no transportation or means to leave and take them to shelters, everything paid for.
I have a question. As we all know, not everyone has the funds to retreat from danger. So my question is: To your knowledge, were there any mandated shelters for these people to evacuate to? No school buses available to help move them to safety? I'm not being critical, I'd just like to know the facts
For that matter DeSatan could have chartered buses to move people vs spending $615,000 on private plane charter to move 48 migrants from TX to Martha's Vineyard! He chose hate over help as his priority. Such a petulant, small man.
@@marthalisk303 If I take your statement and find the real truth in it, DeSantis probably saved immigrant/illegals lives. There, I fixed it for you.
What are they going to do? Move them at gun point?
You can use uber to the shelter nearby and have $30 coupon. I think ianrelief or something. And it was told days ago. And they literally will pick you up if you need assistance due to health issues. It is just that they just want to ride it out in their homes
@@marthalisk303 Do you know the circumstances of why they didn't evacuate or what resources were available? People died, and you're playing politics. Show's your true character.

So sad. Truly heartbreaking.
May God comfort those who lost loved ones. ❤️🙏 Hurricanes, like tornadoes, typhoons, tsunamis, earthquakes, volcano eruptions, & other natural disasters appear to be less predictable than we thought. You can't rely totally on the meteorologist or the newscaster to make your decision to evacuate or not, as the storm can make changes last minute all on its own. It seems that Tampa got spared last minute & that Fort Meyers & other cities got pummeled instead.
There is no god. Try living in this century.
You mean your imaginary friend that created all this? how lame can you be?? so brainwashed to say may "gawd"comfort??
@@Me-sq9ol I'm sure you can prove that there is no God, just like you would ask someone who believed in God to prove that there is.
They were told that the storm was coming ashore in Tampa. Many didn't leave because of that
The hurricane didn't turn at the last minute. The change in the path was projected a couple of days before Ian made landfall. If you live near the gulf coast you are vulnerable. If you are in a mandatory evacuation zone, you must get out ASAP. There was ample time given for people to leave. I think people grossly underestimate the power of a hurricane and the massive destruction and loss of life it can cause.
They were still.told to evacuate. It's just some find it hard to leave their homes, older people do.not want to leave. Some just simple do.not have ways there's reason but wish they would of because busses where provided and my prayers go out to the family. 🙏
It happens every year but for some reason it's "unfathomable".... there is literally something called " hurricane season".
I really need some confirmation before I can believe that such a large number of people died. What were the circumstances? Did they drown?
I only live about 100 miles from there and I didn’t even lose power! I hope this report isn’t true.
Right! They haven't actually found this many dead yet.
I've been channeling since 6 this morning and haven't heard this ANYWHERE ELSE. With that kind of death toll, why isn't the media all over it?
Prayers to Lee County and Ft Myers my prayers for our neighbors
Some of those who lost their lives were people who did not have the money or means to escape. Some had pets and chose to stay with them. Do not condemn them is you don't know their story. Of course there were some who made a reckless decision to stay just to watch the storm. We are all humans in this together. Bless everyone down there.
high rent to
It did not hit in the area that was predicted. It hit within the cone of uncertainty as they call it. Days ago that cone encompassed the entire state of Florida. The entire state cannot evacuate through our one northern border. The evacuation orders for the areas hardest hit came out the day before the hurricane. If you're not going to have compassion, at least know what you're talking about.
There are free shelters, and they will come get you. All you have to do is ask. It is so sad. Hurricane season starts in May till the end of November every year. You need to have a plan before it is to late. They can only predict where it might go, but it can change in a moment’s notice. Be prepaid.
Prayers to all families and loved ones 🙏🏻😇❤️
That the storm shifted so much in its final approach, caught alot of folks off guard. Prayers.
Praying for all those new Floridians who thought "they always over exaggerate the effects!". My best friends step son and family just moved to Cape Coral from WI. Decided to ignore the evac on the advice of another new Floridian. Now we're waiting and hoping they're not among the casualties.
We just need to follow the advises . But catastrophic events are happening everywhere and increasing . Hope that they are fine and you can get in contact soon.
Let me guess. Trump supporters?
No sloppy sleepy Joe voters.
@@comfortablynumb9342 how many fax u got 9 lmao
💜🙏
From Tampa Bay here. We were expecting it. Many evacuated here and took up places all over the state. 24 hours before it hit it decided to shift way south, even below cone. If you have never evacuated you have no idea what it takes to do so. 24 hours is not enough time to gather your family always when they are working and at school because guess what those are still happening because it wasn't going there. Then to gas up in huge lines in panic if you have a car because it shifted. And yes you may say that all should be done ahead of time but in reality it shifted tracks pretty much down the whole west side of the state in a short time. It takes a lot of money to leave your area. Im assuming shelters opened but not sure how many in such a short time. Devastating. Stop commenting criticism and lend a hand instead. #Floridianallmylife
Very sad for all the lives lost. Prayers for Florida 🙏🏻 please take evacuation orders serious.
This is probably not true.

This colored boy has no idea what he's reporting.
There an old saying, "trust but verify". Just because a Sheriff says so doesn't necessarily mean it's accurate and if he's wrong and you reported that death toll without it being verified your going to sound like Shepherd Smith did back with his Matthew coverage.
Yes this is exactly what I am thinking. Sheriffs get the wrong info all the time. Hell remember Uvalde and that cluster of lies?
He has since said that he cannot confirm the numbers.
"Hundreds" has me fairly skeptical. It very well may be hundreds. For now that seems very very high.
The news in my city is emphasizing this. “Is this right? Maybe he misspoke?” They’re trying to confirm this and making sure it’s clear this has not been verified yet.
no confirmation as of yet. que vaya con dios.

you do know the definition of "fatality"?
You think it wont happen to you until it's too late.
People tend to gravely underestimate the power of running water. You might not really understand what kind of unstoppable force it is until you personally experience getting hit by a flood or water surge, and unfortunately for many people that is too late to learn from it.
@@current9300 Epic dangers of tap water. I flooded many ants and spiders in my bathroom sink during last 20 years....Running water prove lethal to all of them.
Sometimes some people don't have enough money to leave or can't afford to use the money they have because they may need it after the storm.
@@deckape69 you know that government provides shelter in every county right? Even they can use uber coupon up to $30 to get to the shelters. It's the people that underestimate the danger.
Broke people problems, I have a second home to chill in , drink beer and great insurance to fix whatever gets damaged.

So sad. Praying for all. 🙏🙏🙏
This is such sad news. I understand many of the elderly couldn't get out and I'm thinking a lot of the fatalities are either elderly or younger going out to film and couldn't get out of the way.
I know it sounds privileged, but as an American having any catastrophic event, even hurricanes, reaching casualties into the hundreds is incredibly rare and shocking. Rest in peace to those who couldn't make it out

I feel so sorry for this to happen to these people. I know from previous hurricanes, that people say they will stay, no matter what When you are being warned for days about the disaster the storm bring, cannot understand why everyone who could leave did not..
I heard that this particular county had a lot of elderly residents 😕
That got nothing to do with these, maybe your relatives or you yourself is tr*sh that's why you feel that way but don't speak for everyone else..and even if your elder relatives don't understand something try to help them and explain it to them with great details why you're complaining winning around internet like a child
It is mostly elderly residents and unfortunately the forecast made people expect the landing to be in Tampa, so perhaps Naples and Cape Coral and ft Meyers didn’t prepare properly
Yes. And, moreover, many forgot how to swim....Lots of estate sale events coming.
@@krzysztofduszkiewicz565 ppl forgot how to swim? Your so cool. U 🤡
Forecasters only can report what they THINK may happen. This storm wobbled so much.This is why you leave if you can.Even if you just go to a evacuation site.If it doesn't hit your areas then you can return home.
I was praying all night that by some miracle I wouldn't have to hear this when I woke up, extremely sad. Praying for the deceased and for their families and friends. I'm sorry for your loss 🙏
Well you see that's your problem right there.......praying. And then to top it all off you combine that with "miracle".
So basically as long as people pray and believe in miracles this kind of thing will continue to get worse and worse.
Nobody does anything at all, burying their head in the sand and then when everything falls apart it's all thoughts and prayers.
So as long as you keep praying for miracles, then in the future you are going to be waking up to this more and more and more and more and more.
Buckle up and don't look up.
yeah right
you were probably eating a pizza pocket watching youtube
@@Zeitgeistboxee well believe it or not praying helps a lot, if u dont believe thats your problem cuz it does help, now if u are like, oh why dont u go help, then go help them then and stop saying this kind of stuff, have a nice day God bless you
@@josefcvs8 so that sounded a lot more like a childish immature and incredibly ignorant rant then a comeback based on any scientific evidence or studies. So blah blah blah blah blah blah blah my God is real blah blah blah blah blah I pray directly to my God blah blah blah blah blah my God is real blah.
Understand that these religions below also pray. And understand that they're just as ignorant as you and wallowing in just about as much filth as you.
2 Nephi 31:20
Wherefore, ye must press forward with a steadfastness in Christ, having a perfect brightness of hope, and a love of God and of all men. Wherefore, if ye shall press forward, feasting upon the word of Christ, and endure to the end, behold, thus saith the Father: Ye shall have eternal life.
Moroni 7:41
And what is it that ye shall hope for? Behold I say unto you that ye shall have hope through the atonement of Christ and the power of his resurrection, to be raised unto life eternal, and this because of your faith in him according to the promise.

At 18:00 hrs Sept 29 2022 .. 17 deaths reported in Florida .. What was the Sheriff basing the death count on ?
Very sad. I’m sure the death toll is not just 100’s of people but many animals 😢.
Until there are actual bodies in the morgue that can actually be counted, how about the authorities and the media lay off reporting about massive loss of life during a disaster. This happens way too much and in the end, after the sheriff has had the limelight and the media has their ratings the death toll gets lowered significantly.
This happened with 9/11, Katrina, the Moore, OK tornado, the Surfside condo collapse, etc. It's rather sickening.
Agreed
You means events that had a large amount of deaths? I'm assuming your comment is sarcasm because otherwise you look like a fool
Don't, ding, ding. Could be a ruse to make DeSantis look bad.
Yes...totally agree....media and advertisers salivate over this......
EXACTLY, the media lives for this. It is a shame, we are in it and now it's windy with rain, moving out slowly but they need to lay off the casualties until there are bodie bag counts.
Authorities are just now assessing the damages and fatalities. That's why it's just being reported. Derr.
Because the leadership of law enforcement for the area said so.
Prayers
Hundreds? Can we get some kind of confirmation first please. I haven't seen anything on any local network in my area of NE Florida. that indicates there were 100s of lives lost.
God bless those who have suffered from Ian.
Gov. DeSantis just confirmed that it's speculation, pretty irresponsible of the sheriff.
