It is ashame that my son is still trying to get insurance company to pay up . He had a new roof put on his house and he lost part of his roof in the last hurrican that caused mold all threw his house. The roof is rusting and the companies guarantee will not pay up. Shame on these insurance companies that you oay your premiums faithfully and they take your money and run.

[@BoltRM]

Yep, home insurance has become so expensive (if you can get it) many aren't even insuring now.

[@Merilyn-m2u]

blame DeSantis! He allowed those companies to go unchecked for campaign donations from them.

[@nrakma]

Under Florida Republican law, Insurance Corporations Donate Hundreds of Millions of Dollars to have republicans protect them from consumer complaints. Go DeSantin.

[@teep2056]

Mann i hate these things. God Be with the people thats involved

[@user-js3ef6456]

People on S.S. and ssi . Need their check . Their are some in the 3 path and no money to even buy gas to leave. And shelter for even the pay check to pay check cant get there or the shelter full. Dear God, please keep all in the path of hurricane Helen. In Jesus' name, Amen.

[@mel3004]

Amen.

We vote democratic before maga takes our social security

[@Ava-cq1zi]

Don’t worry, Desantis is sending thoughts and prayers, probably.

[@JrueThrondsen]

Flooding is the biggest concern.

[@llister8161]

DeSantis is so skilled, caring and communicative with hurricane preparation and damage control.

[@Furryfeather]

He's a lawyer. He MAGA takes our freedoms away in such a fun patriotic way that we actually cheer.

[@lilzae4848]

So Escambia County what the reason for know school rain?

[@jmac9731]

The governor is in Tampa!!! Attorney General Ashley Moody is from Tampa! Thanks for the help for this hurricane! 🌀

[@brad238899]

Im sure he has plans to protect all the golfcourses.

[@ArchieCanada-vm6kx]

Is the middle of florida affected very much?

[@drewba7741]

So glad the signer is legit this time.

[@alyschajohnson6668]

Are businesses going to be open here in Jax Thursday and Friday??

[@rhondalewis3573]

Thank you for protecting our pets!!! Love you, Governor DeSantis. ❤❤❤❤

[@whydoesyoutubehaveahandlenow]

Did you do something about pets during a hurricane?

[@bevonostro................]

The Governor did not sound particularly alarmed about this. I would ignore his strangely calm view of this monster, listen to the info from Guthrie, and get my tail uphill and inland.

[@KJSvitko]

Climate change and rising sea levels will make properties in low lying areas and coastal areas impossible to insure. Banks will be reluctant to give a mortgage for 15 or 30 years because the property may be under water. Selling properties to average buyers will become impossible in the future as banks and mortgage companies stop making loans for these properties. Coastal areas are a high risk for insurance and extreme weather like hurricanes. People will have to self insure and take the risk of loss. Condo associations are losing their insurance and if they find a new higher cost policy they will be passing on the higher costs to association members. Flooded cars from hurricanes fill the salvage lots. Insurance companies will raise rates and pass on the costs and risks to policy holders next year. Coastal properties will be confined to wealthy individuals that can buy properties with cash and self insure for losses from hurricanes or rising sea levels.

[@BoltRM]

Accurate.

[@Furryfeather]

We all drove insurance companies out of business. It's our own dam fault abusing insurance companies to get our free roofs from " hail damage"

[@whydoesyoutubehaveahandlenow]

Did he knock on multiple types of wood this morning?

[@user-wu4cv5if2f]

God is in control ..

[@brad238899]

Great! Since you seem to have the info on God could you tell God to stop the hurricane since he's in control... If he doesn't then he either wants the people of Florida to suffer or he's not in control.

[@Furryfeather]

Maga trump & florida really upset this god

[@SusanLyons-r1u]

It absolutely is

HELENE is now moving NNE!! GET READY!!!

[@robertsessa295]

Desantis and his contractors built so many housing plans across Sarasota and Tampa on ranches and now everything floods

[@ItsPaige_Hi]

I googled debris cleanup you're welcome

[@robertsessa295]

Really Desantis took pastures and made them housing plans and now it’s flooding. Greed and money

[@robertsessa295]

All about money

[@AustriaGermany]

a cuckoo bird would not live in that constant mess of wasteful spending

[@robertsessa295]

Flood money.

DeSantis NEVER TRUMP 🤢🤮

[@nrakma]

Got my white boots and anti gay praying flash cards already for the storm. Then I’m going to lay down next to my sexy couch.

Really he thinks he’s god

[@MrsPinkyChiChi]

I drove from downtown Tallahassee to family in Baton Rouge, LA. Very little traffic. How’s the traffic out today? Gas and hotel info will be helpful to citizens too, I’d think.

[@workingbum]

Why do we keep wasting federal aid on this swamp?

[@BoltRM]

It _could be_ a nice state if properly run. 🤔

[@patriciastark1951]

California, too ..

[@alixcollins1773]

Why is the goofy sign language guy there? Just turn on the subtitles 🤣

[@emilypeters8888]

It is federally required communication standard for things like these.

[@alixcollins1773]

@@emilypeters8888 why though, why not have someone next to him translating in Spanish? Easily more Spanish speakers than ASL communicators, and you could still turn the captions on. Just looks silly and is distracting.

[@colsongunn5334]

Anyone deaf that might be at the talking?

[@SharpieEasternn]

Not all deaf people know English. They’re completely different languages

[@alixcollins1773]

@@colsongunn5334 that’s a good reason, but why not have it translated into 200 hundred different languages. Because they might be at the speech too?
