@lrx54, yep and obviously there were some homes/buildings completely leveled, this could've been so much worse. Even as the storm hit with 120mph sustained winds, the surge was less than expected and I can only imagine that everything would've been leveled/submerged if the storm came in at 180mph sustained winds which is what it's strength was a few days before it got there. Floridians really needed a break as do those in states above, thankfully the storm didn't come in stronger and turn north into GA, SC, NC etc.

I'm a Miami native, born and raised and I'm now 50 and still living here so I have seen many hurricanes. I'm still amazed how you see a house completely gone and the house next door seems untouched. I'm sure every home in these videos got some sort of damage, the difference is most of the ones still standing can be repaired, while your neighbor has nothing but a pile of rubble. Incredible.

[@rs2352]

Building to Federal Flood levels (8 feet above highest tide) is the answer. Along the Texas Gulf Coast, for decades homes were built using telephone poles for the 'legs'. Add in metal shutters (even better, also a metal roof), and do NOT enclose the pilings for a garage, etc. and it becomes basically a 'non-event'.

[@hschmidt79]

Do you remember the first 5 Hurricanes? They happend until you were 43. And after you turned 43, there were 7 more Hurricanes that hit hard in the US. And the damages are rising, every time more destruction than before. It gets worse.

[@sdlausen1]

A lot of these homes are still standing! Incredible! They must be built really well.

[@SterileNeutrino]

You need enough flexibility to yield without snapping. It may also depend on completely random contingencies like orientation and how the houses are grouped. There are probably papers and books on building survivably out there.

[@WYO_Dirtbag]

Wow, structures not built to handle a hurricane storm surge built 5 yards from the shoreline got destroyed in a hurricane storm surge. I'm shocked for one. Let us hope when rebuilding occurs, people build to match or exceed required hurricane building codes.

[@MotoAtheist]

That's the problem one real estate person was explaining. You are only allowed to spend so much of your properties value on repairs before having to bring it up to full code. Ie... your house is worth $200,000. You may be able to spend $50,000 on repairs without updating to any new codes. Go beyond that $50,000 and you could now end up spending $150,000 in repairs to bring the house up to current code. So most people just try and repair what is needed as cheap as possible to not be forced in to paying 3x the cost.

[@miamiwax5504]

There is gonna come a time where it's not worth it to rebuild if we keep getting 1 hurricane after another. What is to say another one wont come in a few weeks? It's beyond frightening to think about.

[@SS11660]

First floor can wash out from under a 2 story. In storm surge. This looks like wind damage

[@chris_jorge]

and they'll have the insurance rebuild it and it'll be destroyed again. rinse and repeat.

[@harpintn]

I noticed that the houses on stilts seemed to fare much better than the ones built on the ground. It looks like most of those houses were built on a slab which is the worst possible way to build a house.

[@richardjohnson8114]

@@chris_jorge Not that easy. If it's storm surge damage then homeowner's insurance doesn't cover it. Flood insurance only pays $250K and if damage is more that 50% of assessed value the home needs to be brought up to current flood zone elevation, so those single story homes on the beach will need to be raised so that the first floor is 8+ feet above sea level before they can be re-built or repaired.
