Homosassa, Florida - Destructive Hurricane Helene Aftermath

[@FLORIDAHOODVLOGS]

I am gonna apologize on this one. There will be better opportunities for me to be a clown in the future and this wasn’t the best time. Sometimes its my coping with stress to act out, sometimes it’s just difficult to manage my odd personality with different situations.

[@jennifersanders2456]

We saved so much stuff after hurricane Andrew. It all molded and was trashed. At first your brain tells you it will be ok. It is a crazy time. We left FL.

[@FLORIDAHOODVLOGS]

Florida hasn’t stopped destroying things 😅

[@Buckeyegal53]

I lost my home due to hurricane Charlie and left n never went back

[@rachelboone4526]

José needs to grow a heart and show some sympathy....

[@user-te9ut7ms4l]

NOT REALY THE STORM GOT ALMOST ALL REPUBLICANS LOL

[@ashlaunicaalpari4584]

I just finished cleaning up my mom’s house that was barely flooded in Crystal River and omg the nasty swamp smell is horrible in flood waters. That’s why you’re seeing soo much stuff thrown out of houses.

[@dreyes8948]

Thanks Jose for the video, to show the situation

[@WilliamKirkland-j4r]

Thanks for sharing your visits to these areas and for simply stating the basic facts about how flood/surg waters will affect basic furniture and appliances. Good work on your part.

[@richardmacdonald8806]

Shame on you for making fun of these people. They have lost everything. Have a heart and don’t try to profit from other peoples losses. Very sick what you’re doing.

[@FLORIDAHOODVLOGS]

Go watch the same story on a big news network... they make more than me, but you will never see the big mans face. they will also carefully protect your sensibilities.

[@FLORIDAHOODVLOGS]

i am pretty sure when the bought a house on the big bend region of Florida they knew this would happen like every few years or so moron

[@creativeforce11]

Totally agree.

[@melanieredfield9736]

Jose I usually like your videos but it seems really harsh to criticize people for choosing to live on the coast, and suffering a Cat 4 hurricane. The last few years have seen extraordinarily strong, destructive hurricanes on a frequent basis, which has not been the usual weather pattern historically. Newer construction can withstand storms much better now, but the small coastal towns with traditional beach cottages dont stand a chance and this destruction is terrible. The people who live(d) in such places probably spent their life savings to retire to a quiet beach town for a relatively modest cost, low taxes, and a quiet lifestyle. It's a risk of course; but the Midwest gets violent tornados and droughts, the Pacific coast gets earthquakes and wildfires, and the Northeast gets blizzards and floods. There is no place people can live and completely escape the risk of natural disasters! When people choose where to live, they have to factor in the cost, the climate, the lifestyle and maybe their employment options...its not as simple as being "stupid". Some people love the beach lifestyle, just like others love the mountains or living in the heart of a big city. Everywhere has good and bad, but nature always wins. We are all vulnerable humans when it comes to natural disasters. Your income or race, your politics or religion, means NOTHING in these situations....so I wish you'd get the chip off your shoulder. Underneath it, you seem to be a compassionate person; but the tone here borders on gloating as though **certain**hurricane victims deserve this misery. Please stop categorizing and judging people! Your footage is very good but sometimes your commentary makes you look mean-spirited, ignorant and prejudiced. If you're doing it for views, stop it because I think you are better than that. At least, I hope so.

[@FLORIDAHOODVLOGS]

This is the 3rd hurricane to go thru there in like a few years. Its always been like that and always will be .. i remember the first time i saw this area it was like this.. this isn’t anything new

[@deniseventi8362]

Thank you for your content I will be watching you indefinitely stay safe out there!

[@ItsJSTNDAD]

My opinion is if you lived by the water, you better have a second Home somewhere else incase shit like this happens.

Bro the voice was epically creepy..but you are definitely speaking truth..keep up the great work..yet the Hialeah accent got me😂..

[@user-im_Me05123]

For the airheads that question about why we have to throw things away,,; yes it's very dangerous to keep things damaged and destroyed by the hurricane. I bet uf your home was hit and all your belongings were damaged, you too would throw things iut . Im in crystal river fla and ny whole complete home qas flooded and everything was damaged.

[@FLORIDAHOODVLOGS]

😢 so sorry. Just a pretty town too

[@el-Cu9432]

Why would anyone expect people to wet items that will harbor mold in their homes? Doing so presents huge health risks. It's really not worth it.

[@erikochristy]

Currently looking through the comments section, patiently waiting until a random bring politics into this and play the blame game.

[@Rita-iz9up]

You dude are sad they all need prayers not this bashing people you are sad dude I ll pray for u to have a heart prayers to all you out there who lost everything prayers to you all 🙏🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

They knew where they were buying. I am not laughing at anyone i am teaching viewers so they don’t make the same mistake

I totally agree that Jose needs to grow a heart

[@pureamerican100]

This guy and his wife has NO heart. So there is nothing to grow from!

[@Rita-iz9up]

It’s not just people who live on the beach who lost everything it’s from the surge is not people who live on beach and no u should act as tho you have no heart that is really sad so excuse me if this upset s me how you talk to people and real sad you don’t get that you should rub it in people face period it could happen to anyone including your self

Insurance companies not answering the phones - surprise! surprise! What we have in Florida are fly-by-night companies that write junk policies. DeSantis allowed this and is responsible.

He doesn’t allow it, he enables it

[@BillyLintzenich-wf7sk]

Dont blame desantis for your stupidity. If you want to live in fla then youre willing to accept the fact that hurricanes are gonna come through. Therefore insurance companies wont payout.

[@FLORIDAHOODVLOGS]

@@BillyLintzenich-wf7sk you wouldn’t say that if it was your house

[@w8lvradio]

Jose: Wouldn't it make more sense to just rent as opposed to owning in Florida? 2) Why don't they build houses out of heavier materials, and have covers over the windows, heavy reenforced roofing, instead of building "Midwest" style ranches and so on, with something better than mold prone plasterboard construction?

[@user-he1pp9gh1l]

Elmo Comentary is perfect. People will deny a probability until its reality. Jose isn't s insensitive, it's sarcastic commentary. Be more aware, and prepare.

Curious what happend to the old homeless. Prisons. Jail inmates. Hospitals .

[@rachelboone4526]

Yes I'm particularly worried about the homeless where did they go

[@bonnielicollins2958]

My best guess is the shelters. There were several shelters open in the area including for special needs and pets. I have talked to people who were planning on cleaning their homeless camp, but I hope they weren’t in their camp during the storm

Against storm surge generally yes if they are up to code and concrete. The wind is another issue. Most of what was shown here is all surge damage.

[@mamabear1927]

A lot of people are throwing stuff out of the garage All right it's plastic and your coolers could be washed off why you sending you cooler away just runs the freaking thing off soap and water man I've seen so much in the last few days if people throwing things away it's like you do have a hose don't you.. I'm sorry I don't know I don't agree with everything that people are throwing away wasting all that money for what cuz they're too afraid to wash anything off and let it dry out in the sun like furniture patio furniture.. I'm rinsing my patio furniture off flipping it over rinsing it off again I'll do it two to three times I don't have money to go out buy new patio furniture every single time I get flooded out only thing I got to replace is my washer and dryer thank God everything else I'm rinsing it off letting it dry and putting it back in the shed.. and I have my washer and dryer a foot and a half off the floor and the water is so tall that when I got into the shed on the belly of my house cuz my house is on stilts it's 4 ft inside that so even having it up and trying to keep it dry but it's impossible I still got destroyed... So I wish everybody good luck... Don't feed too much into my rant I'm just tired I got a lot of raking to do and cleaning and after I finish here I'm going next door and helping out there as tomorrow if I have enough energy

[@mamabear1927]

umm wouldnt say the paint ca be fine as long as the lid ids on good water would get into to it ,same with the pesticides ,as long as the lids are on tight,or is that a naive way to think?

Its gonna end up half a mile away when the storm surge flushes out the garage. You dont see the bottom corner bent

The towns destroyed right now. I grew up in Homosassa and there’s a list of favorite places in town that aren’t open since the storm. Some will open in two weeks (tentatively) some have no date yet for reopening. The boat docks, the restaurants on the rivers, the beach, the wildlife park. It’s not what it typically is right now
