    So sad! My sister went through the destruction of Ian in Cape Coral and most of the focus was Southwest Florida. Now we're thinking of loved ones on the Atlantic side. I'm having flashbacks of the 3 hurricanes in 2004. We're kinda boring here in the middle of the state but are fairly safe as long as a massive oak doesn't fall down in these storms. Love to visit the ocean but that's it.

    Im not 100% certain but I dont think those are "poles" holding up the pool. I suspect that those are concrete footings, possibly steel reinforced that were drilled down and put in before the pool was placed there to help keep it from cracking apart. The sand washed away and those footings are what remains.

    These damaged properties should not be blaming the hurricane alone this damage happened because poor zoning allowing people to build in a known flood prone area without building a proper engineered Seawall. And not raising the land before allowing Land Development. Many of the homes that were damaged on the west coast particularly that of Fort Myers. We'll have to raise their property level before rebuilding. It is very unfortunate that people have to go through this and it is Florida code enforcement and zoning department that should bear the responsibility. Remember everything built has to be permitted so obviously Fort Myers City or the state of Florida should be held accountable. Unfortunately I guarantee you this will all happen again eventually unless proper measures are taken to correct it now. And prevent it from happening again in the future by not allowing to build below sea level especially so close to the shores. Anyone that is building on a Barrier Island especially a new home should be required to have the home at a proper height so that in the event there is another storm surge not so much damage is done. Otherwise the land should be turned back into natural Preserve and not allowed to be built on. A builder will only build to code and what they are required to build. So for the interest of safety for everyone in the future definite changes must be made. Particularly that of zoning and permit office as well as code enforcement.

    I don’t have a problem with people investing in real estate but not to the point where someone owns a bunch of homes on the water while others cannot afford to buy a home because these investors have access to cheap money & regular Americans cannot access. I believe the government should lower property taxes on first owned homes and charge an accumulative rate of 10% for the second home 20% for the 3rd home and Simon and so forth. So many rich people including foreigners they come and park their money in the US in the form of real estate and they cause prices to go up.

The DOD estimates that within the next 30 years the minimum sea level rise around the State of Florida will be 10-12". And that's conservative, pardon the pun, many other estimates state it will be much higher. Either way 70% of Florida will be in the tidal zone with in 20 years or so and within 40 it will be a sandbar at low tide as Nicole just demonstrated.

    I doubt they did. If they had of, it's likely God would have referred them to the passage of Matthew 7:25. But what does God know, right? He only hangs this 🌍 that is upwards of 25k miles around on nada. Job 26:7 But ask the man or woman of science, and most refer to God and his book (the Bible) as no more than a 'fairytale.'
