I follow a few channels on YT pretty closely. The content varies widely. The common denominator is likable people worth caring about. I am so thankful to you for sharing your situation with us, and I’m very thankful you are both well and safe.

[@KeyWestWaterman]

really appreciate the kind words! we are almost back to normal, just gotta straighten some stuff up downstairs. 🙏

[@Meidas_Lea]

Indeed!!!

[@eurogael]

I just found this channel cos of the storm and will be following for the same reasons you mentioned above

The Scourge of Climate Deniers (i.e. CharlatCons)

[@flysubcompact]

Well put. My sentiments, exactly.

[@chuckcavanagh9511]

We took the center of the eye directly over my house in Cape Coral. I've been through every hurricane for 40 years and nothing compares to this storm. 8 hours of hurricane force winds with gusts over 160mph for a few hours. My new Gulf access home did not flood but others were not so lucky. We lost power for 11 days but many lost everything so I am not complaining. Pine Island, Ft. Myers Beach, Sanibel and the barrier islands were all decimated. We are heading to Key West in a few weeks to have a beer and relax for a few days. We definitely need a break!

[@KeyWestWaterman]

I heard it was terrible over there, really hate to hear it. reminds me of irma from what I've heard. love to hear yall did okay. prayers to the rest.

[@keithmosley1859]

We got hammered in Arcadia too

[@davidelin89]

So thankful that you guys are ok! Thank you for the inside look at the storm, it was super interesting and informative. My thoughts and prayers are with all those affected by the hurricane as they begin the clean up and repair process! Take care and stay safe!

indeed! thank you!

I’m so glad the way it went for us but unfortunately so many people can’t say the same, this hurricane was pure devastation for many families. Stay safe brother great footage

[@KeyWestWaterman]

It was a bad one for sure. Breaks my heart to see all the loss.

[@catchcountcostas]

First of all, prayers out to those who've lost property, livlihoods, and their lives. As a resident of Wilmington NC for the past 10 years or more, I have to admit, I do not understand how people continue to be "caught off-guard" during these hurricanes. You guys obviously were prepared, but how others continually choose not be, I will never understand. I really enjoy your videos, I'm sorry you had to make one under these circumstances, but I'm glad you're ok.

[@KeyWestWaterman]

its shifted alot more than they said it was going to, 30-40 mph winds are a winter cold front for us. 70-80 is a different ballgame. The reports showed it would be the lesser.

[@catchcountcostas]

Hey Aaron. We are about 3 blocks from the Square Grouper on Cudjoe Key, south side of US 1. We had 11.5" of water downstairs. Just like you, prepare well and all will be well.

indeed, we were some of the lucky ones

[@chrisgreen177]

I appreciate you and your wife, working together as solid unit. You two are blessed brother. I just hope that all of the single ladies of Florida and the single men of Florida find each other, because in times like these, no one should be alone. Two heads are better than one, and women gives men strength as men give women strength, and together, they both move with purpose, focus and can move mountains in times like these. I sent a communication to all of my military brothers and sisters living down there to just do what we're trained to do in crucial and catastrophic times. They're on it!

[@KeyWestWaterman]

amen! noone I'd rather have by my side in these situations!

Glad that you fared pretty well. Ian has been blowing pretty good here(St Petersburg) all day. It's amazing to see how it sucked the water out of Tampa Bay. Just hope for the people along the bays that the surge as Ian passes isn't to bad. We ate at the hog fish last year when we were in key west. Sorry to see the damage to such a beautiful place

[@KeyWestWaterman]

yea its pretty creepy when it does that, stay safe!

[@lisalisalisa7721]

My gf and her husband just moved to port Charlotte last year so this was their first and it went right over them. They put in shutters which saved all of their windows, an enormous tree going down on the neighbors just missed their house. She said the eeriest part was when the eye went over them. Glad you all had minimal issues.

They a hell of a first storm to ride out. Sounds like everyone got it pretty bad over there.

My brother is in Port Charlotte and i have not heard from him since this morning. I'm sure their ok but they got hit hard. The house has lots of damage and don't know much more. They preped well just like you and that is all you can do.. thanks again.

hopefully they are okay! heard its bad over there.

So happy you've not suffered badly during the storm. We messaged you via another of your recent posts stating our concerns for you and Madelyn. Wishing you calm seas and insignificant damages.

[@KeyWestWaterman]

very fortunate!

[@rocinblues]

Live in Venice FL, the eyewall sat over my home for nearly 5 hours, with 125 mph winds, and dumping 19.5" of rain. We went to Stuart FL to ride it out 1.5 days before landfall. Numerous neighbors told me, "no it won't happen here and we're going to stay", but it did hit! My wife and I are alive, their status unknown. It has been heart breaking watching this on TV. If you have visited SW FL you've already shed a tear. Going back on Sat to access, with no idea what awaits. Say a prayer for SW FL.

[@KeyWestWaterman]

such a bummer so sorry to hear it. hope everyone is okay.

[@alquinn3562]

Everybody I know has a relative or close friend living in Florida. This is news more than entertainment and I personally appreciate the “state of the keys” after Ian message. My mother was in the direct path at Bradenton. Miraculously for her it went south and east by about 80 miles. She is bone dry, full power snd no damage at all. Her husband did have a medical emergency at the shelter and had to be hospitalized. No word on his outcome. At 93 anything could be wrong but hopeful. Anyhow glad you all had minimal issues and as always. Much appreciated. Thank you.

wow she really got lucky, hope hes okay. we did just find considering.

[@stevejohnson5062]

Thanks for sharing. It is important for people to see the power of these storms for both preparation and evacuation. I live in a little town outside of New Orleans called Luling. We were ground zero for IDA and live in a slab home just above sea level-very different from a hurricane rated -elevated home. We were without power for 22 days and many folks like my neighbor have still not been able to move back into their homes for over a year later. No appreciable services (GAS, Food, Water for a couple of months). I recall the horror of seeing the neighborhood that looked like a war zone upon my return. Our contractor did not complete the needed repairs until January 22 and we had to spend another 3 weeks out of the house during the worst of the sheetrock work. Not from flooding just wind and rain. The moral of the story is you need to understand the risks and limitations of staying or leaving. You are in a good place with type of home you have and experience in dealing with storms. But people need to fully appreciate their individual circumstance, the power of these storms and prepare or get out accordingly. Again in the wake of this storm as in Katrina we will see many deaths and heartache that could have been avoided if folks would only think through the decision to stay or go. Regards Steve

[@KeyWestWaterman]

they def are humbling every time!
