- This drone video moves from north to south picking up where the part 1 video left off. I flew a bit faster and higher today but the trade off is that I covered more ground so more people can see their homes. We are having to fly all of this from a boat and the chop was a bit higher today making it more difficult. We also have video from Sanibel, Captiva and St. James Island from today that I will be posting shortly.
Part 2 covering areas South from this video.
• Hurricane Ian Ft Mye... (premiers 8am 10-4-2022)
For licensing inquiries please email Brandon@wxchasing.com
I see all the requests for the south side of the island. If anyone wants to contribute a boat tomorrow (Thursday) I will shoot the rest of the island. We had planned today but due to the Governor and POTUS visiting there are flight restrictions up and no flights are allowed.
And by contribute, I mean take us out, not give it to us.
@@WxChasing oh scuse me. Merely giving you a boat isn’t good enough? I saw boats strewn everywhere there. Go grab one of those Chaser.

Thanks so much for posting this. We have a place in the Sandarac (6662) across for Santini Plaza that I think is now gone.
Thanks for your fantastic work, and I hope you'll be able to do a south side video. My family has had a place there since 1981, and my wife and I love it. We're wondering about the building with my mom's condo, the Santini Plaza, 7-11, movie theater, etc.
I pray salvation, healing, grace, mercy, healing and miraculous turnaround for Florida in Jesus Name.
First I want to say thank you for sharing this. Stay humble and kind ppl. It’s easy to say “why didn’t ppl leave?” As a former Floridian that experienced multiple hurricanes including Ivan in 2004. It’s easy for others to say you should have done this or that but let’s remember that not all of us are fortunate to be able to get up and go. Ian was not predicted to make a direct hit to this area which means these residents did not prepare for a full on direct hit. My heart goes out to all of you! The weather is very unpredictable no matter how advanced the technology is you just never know.
As someone that has been in more hurricanes than all but a handful of people on the planet I just hope people understand that it can happen to them. We see repeatedly people saying they have been through this hurricane and that hurricane, therefore they aren't worried about the current threat. The truth is, very few people have experienced the eye-wall of a Category 4 hurricane but many millions think they have because they went a few days without power in the past 50 miles from ground zero. Miles matter in a hurricane and past experiences give so many a very false sense of security. As for the 15' storm surge (maybe 18'), this is not as uncommon as many think. This is similar or less than with Hurricane Laura, Ida and Michael just in the last 5 years. Surge can get much higher, particularly along the gulf coast. In extreme cases it could even get twice as high as what was witnessed with Ian.
I’ve lived through Andrew in an apartment in Miami, Irma in my home in Naples and now Ian, I’m 💯 sure the state and local government should have done more to keep safe what was important…LIVES!!!!!!!!!
Most people don't understand the NHC cone. SW Florida was never out the cone. If you are in the 3-day cone, you have equal chances of a direct hit. The center line is not a forecast track, it simply divides the cone, while tying the 12 hour forecast points together. The NHC should remove the black center line all together. It doesn't mater what size storm, there will always be people who choose to stay. We should focus on helping those who want to evacuate but don't have the capacity. For those who choose not to leave but can, all we can do is educate, for starters we could fix the NHC cone.
I was in Fort Myers from that Friday ->late Sunday night. Storm hit Wednesday. The media and officials kept downplaying this storm. I went back and pulled the footage and articles to confirm. Definitely a "Tampa" storm, and they kept saying yes, it'll intensify, but it'll weaken before it hits land. If even as late as Wednesday morning, if officials had said it was going to be a Cat 5 hitting the area, there would have been a mass exodus. Even the saltiest, drunkest fisherman isn't going to hang around for a Cat 5.
In fact, many of the stranded/beached fishing vessels you might have saw were from the Tampa Bay area, as they came down here hoping to avoid the storm.
My own parents rode out the storm on Fort Myers Beach. I couldn't convince them to leave. The only concession they made was to get their cars off the island and to high ground. Truth be told, this was actually a good decision. The building was designed to handle a storm like this. Because of that, they were in their cocoon, isolated from the full fury of the storm outside. They could see the water rising but couldn't hear or feel it. Out of everyone we know, including people inland, they had the smoothest ride. They were never worried. Not the same story for friends I have who rode this out in newer single-family homes on the mainland.
Its really amazing how the newer homes are standing, the new hurricane codes I guess kept them intact. Such a sad sight. Lord Jesus be with those who lost so much.
Just because they arent reduced to nothing doesnt mean they are intact,
@@Jason-..- I have been a Fort Myers resident for 29 years each and every new house is intact, we all knew older houses were on borrowed time. New building codes developed after hurricane Andrew work
Amen
Palm trees are the real dinosaurs.
Looks like a mobile home park placed right by the ocean in an area frequented by hurricanes. Who knew this would happen.
My heart literally hurts watching this footage and seeing the complete destruction of cities and islands. It looks like a war zone 😢 Praying for everyone who is having to deal with this unimaginable loss and the trauma they are suffering 🙏🏻😢❤️
We are at war!!! With the weather!!! Weather manipulation. Weather warfare!!! Believe it or not. It's your choice to believe it or not.
It really was a tsunami that hit Fort Meyers. The sea receded in Tampa Bay and when I saw that... I said to myself: OMG! Poor people! It´s unbelievable!
Exactly.
That’s what I’m thinking that’s more then a hurricane
@@loyaltygames8853 Exactly
I too thought its a tsunami the damage tells
People just underestimate what a storm surge can do. Sandy wasn't even a hurricane, it was a severe storm. The horrendous damage was from the surge alone, not the wind.
I was in Fort Myers a week and left a day before the storm hit..nobody was worried at all...everybody thought Ian would hit Tampa..cant believe I was there right before this happened..praying for all u folks down there...terrible what happened.
Just like champlain towers gotta change the way we build.
My sister was on Ft. Myers Beach on Tuesday the day before Ian hit. She was shocked at the number of people just mozying around, not suspecting or preparing. She lives inland, and still got 4.5 feet of water that floated her car away.
Expect the death toll to rise as more of the missing are presumed dead. This footage and your comment about complacency, tells me.
@@Jack-bs7cy and WHERE we build.
@@Birdbike719 lol
Love from Western Australia 🇦🇺. So so sorry for everyone. Heartbreaking. God bless all those affected.
Perth?
@@djcorvette8375 yes, Perth. Actually your name reminded me, we imported a 1969 corvette convertible with a targa topp, it was electric blue, then we bought a 1979 corvette, it wasn't as nice as the '69 model. We also had a Transam with the big gold eagle on the bonnet, no where near as nice to drive as the 'vettes. Great days. Sorry if I bored you, a little trip down memory lane. ❤
Best vid of the area anywhere, thank you so much.
It’s heartbreaking to watch but thank you, my heart goes out to all the residents.
Comments on the devastation aside, this is some of the best drone/camera work I have ever seen. Kudos.
The one and only named storm to hit in 2022 so far. So late into the season as well, can’t believe it happen to be the most destructive in Florida besides Andrew. The raw unpredictability of Mother Nature. She is not happy with this administration and the downhill spiral it’s putting us through. Sometimes a storm like this brings back the care for humanity that we’ve been lacking.
Can you please film the south of the island starting at Big Carlos Pass? NO ONE is showing any footage of that end of the island. Thank you!
I have seen a few different videos. I do not think the damage was as extensive. The way the winds and the storm surge occured the worst damage was done mid island and up. (Not saying there wasn't any damage, just not as extensive)
This is heartbreaking to see, my heart goes out to all that went thru this and lost so much.
I see also lots of newer construction survived. However, most seemed to be on the backside of the island. You can tell where storm winds/surge was worse by the damage pattern on the sea facing part of the island.. Trailers had no chance.
every new house (built up to the new "Hurricane Andrew" code) survived with no mayor issues Row of beach front house @ 4:54 did just fine. Mobile homes need to be banned from coastal counties
Thanks for filming! So very sad! I lived in Fla 19 years. If told to evac, just GO!
This is a storm in which even if every person evacuated it would not have helped the result of this hurricane. The total destruction was going to happen no matter what. And remember they thought this was tracking to hit Tampa head on just a few hours before it made landfall. That's what all models were showing. I agree everybody should always evacuate. But with this storm, where too?
@@alesiap.6062 As far north as possible. Many evacuation orders went out for coastal areas not in the direct path, both gulf and Atlantic side. The sheer size of the storm should have caused alarm and will hopefully be heeded in future events.
@@alesiap.6062 evacuation FL is not that hard you just go to the other coast.
12:45 The seawall was completely useless and the new construction appears to have withheld from the extremely damaging water. I've said this before, Florida and hurricane prone zones need to prohibit any mobile homes and all future homes and structures need to be updated to Category 5 building techniques and materials particularly water mitigation.
the new library @ 3:34, beachfront houses @4:53, light blue house with solar panels @ 6:07, beachfront mansions @ 6:26, the bay facing houses @ 10:36, the house next to Newton Park @12:35 (yes that was a park), the big one @ 18:57 (that one was surrounded by tiny old houses), even the one under construction @ 19:27 is more livable than any older dwelling. Those are structures built up to the new code (the one developed after hurricane Andrew) The code is there but it cant be retroactive older houses had no chance to survive.
And that tiny wall is not a seawall is designed to stop erosion (and also fails at that)
Thank you for filming this for all the residents that cant see their properties. I was looking for footage of Sanibel near Robinwood Cir and W Gulf dr area. So sad for that to happen in such a beautiful area. Praying for all the good folks down there.
Amazes me how so many people take time out of their day to leave nasty, hateful comments for people that have lost everything. I can't imagine walking around with that much hate inside, must be painful for them. Nobody that had a home or life here deserved it. For the most part FMB had lots of hard working average people that had lives and memories there. Prayers and wishing all better days ahead.
totally agree with you on the nasty side of comments but "For the most part FMB had lots of hard working average people"? really? you just have to see so many snowbirds asking for drone views of their property. Or watch the traffic every morning of people commuting to FMB. Very small number of islanders work for a living
This is the best drone footage of Florida I have seen. Devastating! I lived through HUGO! I know what you Floridians are about to endure over the next 12 months. Help one another or your days will be long and painful. You can't manage alone! "Love your neighbor as you love yourself". May God be with all of you.
It’s JUST UNBELIEVABLE the amount of ‘TRAILERS’/ MOBILE homes..ON the coast!? Asking for trouble..
Excellent drone video.
I think I'm more amazed at what did survive that incredible storm.
I saw one house that survived undamaged
Not sure of the location but it was completely intact even the roof was fine
Everything else around it was completely destroyed
It was only a few years old
I find it amazing that Palm trees are still standing after this hurricane those are some tough trees.
Masterclass in storm resistant design and construction. Stilts are no protection if you have a nailed-together stick structure.
thank you for sharing this footage
the amount of destruction is mind blowing
back in 1961; I was a child this is what our migrant worker shanty town and row houses looked like after hurricane Carla.The thing is whole families disappeared so there was no one left to report the missing and no one searched for the dead. I remember all the empty spaces where the migrant worker rent houses and caravans use to be and hearing my mom screaming: "They'are all gone where are they?"
- Carla was the hurricane that wiped out so much of Galveston. My family went there for the summer just afterwards and we were told of the big wooden rollercoaster and hotel piers that were destroyed! Carla must have been a bad one. I think we went there in 1963. Love to all who suffer in horrible hurricanes ♥️
A true American horror story. Heart breaking. These disadvantaged communities and human beings are always the forgotten ones.
Horribly traumatic,😪😭sad, hope people truly serve the LORD, Safest place to be now.
Where were you at? I remember seeing nothing but slabs at my relatives small Carancahua Bay subdivision, about 15 miles north of the Gulf, across Matagorda Bay from Port O"Connor where she hit on 9 11,1961. There was debris hanging from the country high lines and a lot of rattle snakes on the roads. Lucky that the Mother of Hurricanes, Carla, hit in the sparsely populated area about 125 miles west of Galveston, Tx. If Carla had hit Corpus Christi or Galveston directly, there would have been nothing but slabs there, and Houston would have been clobbered too.
It's debatable whether Carla, was a Cat 5 or 4 having 175 mph gusts at Port Lavaca, and later down graded to Cat 4 sustained 145 winds, but what made her really bad was her size. Her 250 mile radius with outer bands from Corpus Christi to Louisana, and doing damage all the way up to Greenland. Her size also put out tidal surges reported as high as 18.5 feet.
Yeah, I was born in ‘60 so I’ve only HEARD about it. We lived in Alvin, Tx..just down the road from Galveston.
Prayers for everyone affected by this horrific storm.
Thank you for posting this. My parents were able to see their house (14:28--the one where you focused straight down and could see the floor tiles of their home and the pool full of debris but no water). They were year-long residents of FMB. Please stay safe.
Thank you for doing this, do you have footage from the far south of the island?
Amazing footage to see the extent of the damage. How terrifying for anyone that did not evacuate and rode that storm through. A big job to rebuild and recover from.
Thank you for this video.
Wow! It’s crazy how many houses and neighborhoods are just washed away. Thank you for sharing.
This Is so heartbreaking 💔 so many lives were lost 😢 it’s is so surreal 🥺 Thank you for sharing, my husband’s grandparents lived there years ago & it still holds a special place in his families hearts 💕 Our thoughts & prayers for all 😢🙏🏼
Thank you for the videos! I was wondering if you could do a video of the South part of Fort Myers Beach. Particularly, Estero Beach and Tennis Club condos? We visit family there every year and would like to see video footage of it. If you could do this that would be great!
Thank you. Many, many years ago my grandmother had two ocean-facing condos right on the beach there. Heart wrenching.
Thanks! I would like to donate something to your huge effort in showing better quality video than the news stations
Thank you very much for flying this portion of the island. Thanks to you I was finally able see my mom's house in higher res than the NOAA satellite images. Much appreciated.
This won't stop big money from coming in and buying those empty Oceanfront Lots
Thank-you for video. I'm seeing so much more devastation.
Homeowners, busnisses will certainly require this info
Awesome job. Up and down the streets like you did let’s property owners know what’s up with their homes.
Unreal footage belongs on tv great job
Thank you for this coverage. Would you please do coverage of Bokeelia?
Can you please continue South from where you left off to the end of the island!
Prayers sent to y’all in Florida.
Thanks!
Thank you for doing this. I can share our street view with our neighbors. Much appreciated, stay well.
wow just wow! my heart goes out to all affected
Thank you
Beyond believable…my prayers for all involved!
When I got out of the army five years ago, I didn't know how to find my feet, so I was lost and I didn'teven speak to my family. I found a little farm in Fort Myers, met a girl, and stayed there for three years.
When I look back on those days, I see it through a filter of sunshine and gold, because they were the best three years of my life. The farm is now destroyed, and Fort Myers is too.
It's taken a few days for it to really hit, but last night it finally hit me and I cried for the first time in a long time. I'm not sure what to do, but I know my friends need my help and I know that so many people will never be found.
I learned this morning that people were calling their families, screaming for help as their homes broke up before being sucked into the sea forever.
Thank you for THE BEST AERIAL FOOTAGE I'VE SEEN TO DATE. YOUR DETAIL IS ASTONISHING! My heart mind body & soul hurt for everyone here who has suffered & are suffering beyond comprehension. God be with all.
Splendid coverage and thanks for not emblazoning it.
You stopped too early!!! Looking for footage from where you stopped to Santini plaza and fish tale marina. Also looking for footage of the Wyndham Great footage though! Thanks for taking the time to do this.
I managed to get nearly every structure from the north tip to where I stopped in this video. I will try to finish it off in the coming days.
Oh gosh….. my heart is breaking. We need to help Florida and unify as a country. I am so sad. Sending love from California. Sending love to friends living in Naples. I was so worried about my friends living through the storm. I visited Orlando for a conference and went to Disney World. Orlando people were so nice and kind. I just can’t believe how bad this is.
Lol 😆.....
Amazing video, thank you for showing the areas south of Time Square (where the majority of the video has been shot). There are a lot of FMB homeowners who have been wondering about the status of their homes and neighborhoods and have been desperately watching for video like this. The video skipped our particular area but we could tell that some of the debris that was blocking our path off Estero has been moved since the NOAA satellite pictures from last week. We are so sad for the loss of life and property. I hope you will shoot more video.
To be honest I can not watch any longer … my heart miss the beats every time watching new footage of destroy and damage sad story
Pray for everyone affected by this tragedy
Take care and be strong
I live in Tampa. I evacuated to Orlando because it was supposed to come to us.my heart goes out to everybody hit by the hurricane
Mother Nature's Beautification
its pretty sad .. it looked like the whole place was nuked and just got obliterated in a war (war zone). Soo sad ... 😢😥.. our hearts, prayers and thoughts go out to all who suffered and were caught up in this catastrophe. We pray for your recovery to be speedy. 🙏🙏 stay strong.
I've been through quite a few hurricanes in my life and I've never seen anything on the scale of this destruction before. Wow
I absolutely agree with you. I was in Miami during hurricane Andrew. I think Ian massive water surge was worst.
😢🙏 Just so devastating, and unbelievable. Prayers for all of these families.
thinking of u such a horrible devastating situation thank u for video from 🇦🇺
Seen this total destruction terrifies me as a person who has lived in South Florida my entire life. I recently thought about what would happen if something like this happened to Turkey Point the Nuclear Plant in Miami. I think about what happened in Japan with the tsunami.
Is there any chance you could do the south end of the island? There's no footage anywhere for that area and I and many others have properties in that end and we have no idea if the buildings are still standing.
oh my goodness that's INSANE. Hope you find out soon. Whoa.
ft myers elementary had water to almost top of the front doors… unfortunately, houses- if standing- would still have significant damage.
@@dmalka336 It's not my residence, just a time share I have for the month of March, still a significant investment though. The building itself is raised on concrete pillars, the first floor is about 12 feet above grade so there's a fair chance it survived catastrophic damage. Time will tell... I feel bad for those who lost their homes. that has to be horrible. But my now-deceased mother bough those 30 years ago so there's lots of memories there.
@@SSHitMan I truly hope it’s okay and you find out asap 🙏🙏🙏
The beachcombers are going have a bonanza
I heard if you comb the beach with a metal detector after a hurricane, you can find some cool treasures.
looters will be shot according to the sheriff..
@@jeanetteshawredden5643 there's a guy who looks for metal jewelry on yt for people who have lost sentimental items on beaches. He finds them and returns them to their owner. He's amazing.
Looks like they need to create an incinerator and use the refuse to generate electricity. Or if they can separate the wood out, make pellets for pellet stoves.
There must be a lot of opportunity for businesses in reclamation.
God Bless everyone, especially the elderly!!!!! Wishing lots of strength, support, and resources for a speedy transition into new or old accomodations!!!!! Prayers for strength to make it through this most difficult time !!!!! God send your incredible healing power to everyone in Florida!!!!!!
Is there a video of the home south of this? We have a home just north of Santini Square and would really appreciate being able to see if the hurricane glass held.
How are you getting around the no fly zone for drones on the islands??
I enjoyed my 25 years partying and boating to Ft Myers Beach from Bonita and Naples….this was my waterway! Do you have any footage from Coconut Point?
3:40 there are still a few construction companies that are next level.
That would be the new building code developed after hurricane Andrew. the new library @ 3:34, beachfront houses @4:53, light blue house with solar panels @ 6:07, beachfront mansions @ 6:26, the bay facing houses @ 10:36, the house next to Newton Park @12:35 (yes that was a park), the big one @ 18:57 (that one was surrounded by tiny old houses), even the one under construction @ 19:27 is more livable than any older dwelling. Those are structures built up to the new code The code is there but it cant be retroactive older houses had no chance to survive
Any chance for a south side of ft Myers beach near hibiscus point? Can't find any footage of that area
Can you please get aerial of carlos point? Seems there are no videos out there
10:55 that's our house. Or was. Thank you for uploading in 4k
The devastation is just unreal. My heart goes out to all of those who have lost their whole worlds there. And I am praying all of them are fully taken care of and able to rebuild. The loss of life is so horrible. Hurricanes are so terrible becsuse it is impossible to predict where they are going to even make landfall before just hours bbefore they do. #FloridaStrong
It's so interesting to see some places still intact and others are completely devestated.
newer homes are built stronger
thats the result of the new building code developed after hurricane Andrew. But the code is not retroactive so older houses has no chance against a hurricane (and dont get me started with mobile homes)
we were there in August for our 4th wedding anniversary, we got married on the beach behind Lani Kai, we have been staying for past 10 yrs at Estero Beach and Tennis club. every drone footage we have scene. stops where yours did. hoping to see one continue dow to the end of the island. was wondering about Santini Plaza. EBTC and other places. FMB will come back stronger
What is the worst are people that are not insured. Those big boats, they'll just get another one. Those who have nothing and lost their job, that's hard. I went through one hurricane. It blew away the house around me. By God's grace I was in the bathroom with my dog, with a single mattress over our heads... we lived but we were there 3 days before we saw anyone but the one neighbor he was there because he had no car and his dog. My car was in the shop. I left Florida. I won't go there during hurricane season. I live in PA now!
I have noticed in this video and in others that I have watched. That the newest of homes, even those right on the beach. Survived fairly intact with not all that much damage. So seems newer construction codes do work.
I saw a dome home that looked untouched. Maybe they will rebuild some of those. I heard they resist storms well.
I don't mean to diminish the tragedy, but you have to appreciate the irony of all the homes that were built decades ago elevated on wooden pilings just incase a centenial storm-surge hits, and the day the tide finally comes, the wooden structure is ripped right off the pilings.
Can't imagine finding your little cottage, the shell of it mostly intact but on top of pile of other homes & bldg materials... A block away from where it used to be. Holey-moley.
It is like magic. The houses complete disappeared and just slabs were left.
Is there a way you can go up to Cayo Costa? I love camping there and Ive seen virtually NO FOOTAGE out of there. Thanks!!!!
To think a week ago people were going about their lives enjoying the beautiful area that they lived in and now the devastation is beyond belief it goes on and on for miles,my thought is where do you begin,may God these people the strength to cope !!
Beyond sad its total devastation! I would never rebuild cut my losses and get out.Its only a matter of time until it happens again The cleanup alone could take at least 2 years
where do you dump 3,500 houses worth of trash ?
could the wood be sent to a trash to energy plant or used in a coal fire power station ?
I wish i could take a year off to go help
I thought the building codes required homes to withstand a category 5 hurricane.
Why so much damage?
Usually watch your hurricane landfall live stream. I bet getting back from Cuba Post Ian, was quite the adventure to tell. Per always doing excellent work covering these disasters.
Thanks for your fly over. It is hard to get information when you are in Kentucky
Love Kentucky bro. Thanks for your help!
Hey Atin, the Cuban adventure is worthy of a Hollywood production. I regret missing the FL landfall but cant trade the Cuba experience for anything.
3:32 I think officials need to look at the structure with the green roof very carefully. It appears to be intact and if so, whatever construction methods were used could be used for the rebuild.
I Believe it's a matter of Money. If you have lots of it, You can buy anything. And if you are wise you build according to possibilities. People with less money that want to live in Florida or other Hurricane prone areas, put up Modular homes which can barely withstand a Cat 1. I guess it's a chance you take.
If you get the right contractor and inspect every step of the way, a bulletproof structure is possible. Like the sole house standing after hurricane Michael hit Mexico Beach.
That's the public library, if I'm not mistaken. Its always seemed overbuilt to me until now.
the new library @ 3:34, beachfront houses @4:53, light blue house with solar panels @ 6:07, beachfront mansions @ 6:26, the bay facing houses @ 10:36, the house next to Newton Park @12:35 (yes that was a park), the big one @ 18:57 (that one was surrounded by tiny old houses), even the one under construction @ 19:27 is more livable than any older dwelling. This is not some weird occurrence those are newer structures built up to the new building code designed after hurricane Andrew
I'm a minute in to this video and my heart is pounding. Amazing pile of junk represents the whole earthly belongings of thousands of families. Their cherished family memorabilia and hard work in life destroyed. The house isn't where we left it? Whaaat,!?!
Where do they live now? How can miles of rubble be dealt with? My fear......it gets dumped into our deep oceans to pollute our planet. We pray for Peace to come for these survivors of Ian. May God bring them a better renewal of their lives.
Incredible and devastating. My childhood home destroyed there but you got amazing shots. Thanks for taking the risk to do this for us.
Wow, no words
looks like a freaking miniature set of houses...unbelievable!!
Wonder if it would be feasible to filter the sand and put it back on the beach.
Where do you start to get rid of the debris. I think someone with a great bunch of knowledge and dedication can lead a team to clean up and start rebuilding. I know I’m really organized and when I have something to do I don’t stop until it’s done. I would like to help with the process.The people deserve to be able to get help.They are regular people like myself and we together can start this process.Look forward to helping 👊🏼God Bless to all
Great Camera work! Thanks for showing us how bad it really is at ground zero
Hopefully people will help out anyway they can
How do you clean up and rebuild something like that? It looks like the aftermath from a nuclear bomb, I tear up everytime I see footage of the aftermath I pray everyone gets thru this
Yea... logistically.... what do you do with all of that debris.... it looks like maybe 5% might be usable..... where do you put all of that once it's removed? probably got toxins in it... can't dump it in the ocean. Seems to be an impossible task.
Just like you eat an elephant. One piece at a time. Gonna take months or even years in some places.
You clean up one block at a time. Demolish what's still standing and haul it all away. Very little salvageable with a surge like that. Even if home survived and is habitable, no infrastructure left to make things livable for the foreseeable future. It will take years, if not a decade, for normalcy to return...if there are no more hurricanes in the area.
Where do you even start after that i cant even imagine
