@@Phoenix8Rising First I thought you were making that up, about the color. Indeed, they range in color all the way to black. Whatever the color, no fun!

[@marylamb6063]

Until the late 1980s Florida building code did not require any drainage plans. My house was built on high ground and the entire neighborhood has drainage tunnels built underneath to siphon heavy rainwater. Before the new codes were enacted, builders built on low-lying areas with no drainage system. That's why Florida homes flood so easily. Most were built in the 40s through the 70s.

[@gpwcowboy]

Shouldn't have built there then or now. That's the problem.

[@SorminaESar]

The Lord God, almighty God save and bless all of you, Florida peoples in Jesus Christ. Don't be sad just keep strong, guys. Thank you🙏🙏🙏

The reporter is in the bed but doesn't know how high the water is😂😂

[@winthropbaker5494]

That water will recede in a day or two...months is a crazy call...put down the bong

[@gpwcowboy]

You can't fix stupid.

[@Soapboxstomper]

Thank you President Biden for your immediate pledge of support to Florida North & South Carolina, as well as So Cal and Maui! Youve been super supportive in these times of natural disasters and it is greatly appreciated❤❤❤🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌴🌴🌴🌴🌴🌴🌴

It doesn't take "a few months" for the water to recede! Com on Lady!

[@2olvets443]

I’m thinking she meant a few months of cleaning up after.

[@Natily80]

Hard to sympathize with people that choose to live there

[@marycrawley3293]

Got to watch out for 🐊 and 🐍 😯. Glad I don’t live in florida, live in north ga. I feel so bad for all the people affected, sending prayers for everyone 🙏

[@lindaroberts1308]

To all the crew who go out there to rescue people,man,thats dangerous.I only got alot of wind and rain but im further inland

[@JERios-wv8lx]

Some people don't like to follow authorities' instructions and refuse to leave home...They say "This isn't big deal" and "Something like that has never happened on here"......Unfortunately, some of them don't survive the ordeal...During Huricane Ian the son of a lady i know was swept away with his wife by the sea and they never were found!

[@mushishi9684]

Peoples only together we prevail 🙏🙏☀️ Florida 💛🙏🙏🙏

[@tesscot]

Gators are also a risk in that area. I had to look twice at something floating, but it was a log. Hope these guys don't get in trouble with the authorities. For some reason they don't want people rescuing people. Ridiculous.

[@lenasmith6943]

😂 Thanks God for keeping us all safe in your arms😅

[@openthedoor8092]

I enjoyed this reporter going out for real news. Fun to watch. Scary to be there.

[@lhady-mohandzeljka4011]

Almighty God helping those crew who are gonna to help people to going out of the dangerous zone . You are great .Hopefully everything will be relatively ok .💝🌼💝

[@mylifemychoice9250]

It’s so upsetting when people drive down roads when peoples homes are just a few inches of water entering! It ticks me off!!

[@Babsnray]

It is clear these people were being very respectful with their speed not to mention they were out to help rescue fellow neighbors in the area. Totally, totally agree on that though because I have seen people out joy riding and they don’t care at all!

[@lhady-mohandzeljka4011]

Prayers for everyone of you friends,stay safe,Almighty keeping you safe in these very difficult moments of your life. 💝🌼💝

Great TV. That truck could break down. Its not without risk of snakebite or electrocution. Nice work. Kudos.

Don't ever drive in salt water..it destroys your vehicle.

[@ricksal9012]

People, remember that most vehicles have the ECM ( Electronic Control Module ) under the seat. Water enters = dead car.

[@SurvivalSavvvy]

This will wreck your wheel bearings and cost you $1200 to replace. It also splashes water into the houses and make it worse on them. Should not do this unless you have too.

[@normajoskenbeamora4747]

THE REPORER AT THE TV STATION JUST USE THE WORD FASCINATING 😯

[@kimasp7482]

THIS is why we drive big trucks here!

[@buzz5969]

For those that are new or unfamiliar to Florida, this is the norm since at least growing up there in the 70s and 80s throughout to currrent day today, so Id recommend yall get used to it, or move, its gonna happen every year during CANE SEASON, which is now. This is only half the bad, we got Tornadoes too.😂😅😊

[@sadiecaroline6623]

I don’t remember Ian doing this to crystal river …

[@QueenB086]

We didn’t flood during Irma. The water was pulled away and Crystal River didn’t flood that time.

Spectacular isn't a word to be used when someones house in under water...and his demeanor is excited versus sympathetic. These ppl sicken me, they're pretty devoid of compassion.

Wasn't like a year ago everyone hating on big trucks

some people build their houses on stilts- for this reason…

What type of truck is that???

[@Offthbadan]

Toyota Tundra.

Jacksonville didn't feel anything

[@johnberube8608]

I lived in Hudson Fla during the no name storm in the nineties

[@Goody29]

This is REALLY BAD!!!!!

[@nacholibreri]

every year: they tell them to evacuate, every year- they wait too late and act surprised 😮

[@Ruel-rc2ly]

Trick is keep the water out of the tail pipe ride your breaks and keep the engine revved up to keep the water blown out ....:)

[@lawrenceleverton7426]

How about don't be an idiot and stay at home. One manhole cover missing and you become the stranded.

Who would of thought it could flood around rivers. I guess this is the first time ever in our history.

Really, stronger that Andrew at category 5? Or Charley that hit Punta Gorda as a Cat 4? Or Ian who made initial landfall as a cat 5 put tore apart ft meyers. Would be awesome if the media would fact check occasionally.

[@stavid7870]

Ian was probably one of the worst storms to hit the state ever. It moved incredibly slow and flooded a huge swath of the state.

[@pamelafox5882]

I believe they were just talking about what happened in their area.😢

[@seg2895]

Didn’t they get Evacuation orders?

[@Walt1119]

They were all told to evacuate a day before and didn't!

[@LanieJohnson-fc7jz]

Why dont people listen and then cry for help?

[@FrancineSmith-b9d]

Insurance, not tax payers dollars every year

[@2olvets443]

I live no where near there now and not even in FL. and my insurance went up across the board this year because of FL, and the fires out west last year. Between Home owners and auto up about 1000.00 per year. Won’t know exactly until a policy comes due in Dec. sounds like crap but the reason our vehicles with same carrier are on separate policies is because of how we titled them with kids names on them so there is no bs with probate court and inheritance tax when we’re gone and to take advantage of multiple policies for discounts.

[@gpwcowboy]

Insurance isn't paying the sheriff's department, EMT,s, fire department, water utilities, road repairs, tree removal in roadways.

[@zane9373]

Crystal River is 3 feet above sea level.

[@srugge]

thats nuts

[@Kingfamilyfavorites]

That’s actually the Indian River which flows into the Crystal River

[@Faiith1964]

Maybe i need to go back north after being in ga for 48 years

[@16MedicRN]

First, please know the name of the person helping you. Second, 'spectacular' isn't a word I'd use. You seem super cheerful. Tone it down maybe?

[@4Marktk]

Ian took "a few months" for water to go down. Now a year later , the same thing. Who insures these homes ? Anybody ?

[@stevebeimler2579]

If this is a know flood area - it should be left as a nature preserve and no rebuilding permits be allowed - just so that it can be flooded again and again with the warming up of the planet 🌎

[@sharicesteen1260]

I thought people just liked lifted trucks when I moved to Houston. Then Harvey happened. Now I too have a lifted truck.

[@Crime.me.a-river]
