    That is a shame. Shore Acres had been flooding like that for s long as I can remember. Probably the only long term solution is "lifting" homes or building a second story for the living area and converting the flood prone first floor to garage and storage. Just repairing the flood damage and waiting for the next flood is not the solution.

    Sounds like they need to move or raise their homes onto stilts.

    Do all of that work, and yet, you expect different results ? It’s been decades!!! You’ll do this all again next hurricane season. In the meantime, you’re driving up everyone’s insurance costs…. This area should have been made into a barrier island. No homes…

    Well, you're willingly living in a flood zone. You know what I did when I realized I lived in a flood zone during a major flood? I moved.

      Yep might be the best thing. But you need the money to do that. Selling your house isn’t worth much. And with desantis ruining the local economy, making insurances in FL quadruple, people are completely ruined after a flood.

    they live literally on the water... they know what they are getting into living on the water.. maybe they should be smart, and put their homes on stilts..

    He should have either just raise his home foundations to say 4 metres higher from ground surface or the way use longer poles concrete or bricks like 10 metres build from say 6 metres onwards
    You should everytime measure flood levels everytime floods occur to see how higher it gets everytime or it stays stagnant everytime or it goes lower sometimes
    From there you get a fair idea of how to build flood prone houses right
    We getting natural hazards tectonic atmospheric and surface sometimes the 3 altogether in most countries of fabulous planet Earth
    It is stressful but you all going to be okay just do not spend a lot on rebuilding if you keep doing same plan all the time
    Change it a bit like raising foundations and yep higher poles

    When you buy a house make sure its on high ground. Common sense lets people protect themselves.

    That area of Pinenellas county is cursed for bad weather events. Best to do is move out forever if you can afford to do so.

    We too had areal flooding inland because the ground hasn't dried out since Idalia, but it's foolish to keep rebuilding in actual flood zones. Climate change is real and severe storms are now the new normal. It's so stressful, but definitely move to higher ground and away from storm surge areas.

      its not climate change because that doesn't exist. the problem is this state is an unsustainable ponzi scheme. this state gets hit with DOUBLE the number of hurricanes than our next closest competitor. you can't keep building here. you can't insure it. i've been here my whole life i'll be 50 in 6 weeks. i'm moving out of this state in 2025. 8 people in my tiny social circle left this year. 2 went to GA, 2 went to Wyoming, 2 went to Kentucky, one to tennessee and one to SC.

      The ground hasn’t dried out since TS Agnes in 1972, Lol…. Who would live in such a vulnerable area like Shore Acres? Why would you put yourself through that?

      They can move to Tenn. and wait for tornadoes to welcome them.
