Hurricane Nicole - Florida homes falling into ocean

[@bartmadness830]

I can’t understand why people build in these locations known for hurricanes and tropical storms! This damage makes everyone else’s insurance go up😡

[@XMON888]

But but they needed a pool by the ocean 🥺

[@michaelhoffman4470]

First off...it is doubtful that they were even that close to the coast when built. Also...without coastal areas there wouldn't be much economy. Man has always lived on/near coasts and set up settlements there. No one could foresee this.

[@steelegrinder]

Well. Insurance is a racket made to go up. The more the merrier

[@tjkohlbrenner]

Those houses had big backyards before Ian.

[@sharynwest2944]

What do you build your house back on if the ground is in the ocean?

[@machinegunrilla8629]

"Houses built on sand", I think there used to be a proverb about that... As a Floridian I can tell you I'm tired of paying for wealth people's homes being washed into the ocean every other year...

[@monacallender721]

BEEN DONE FOR YEARS. And it will be again.

[@maggieking6619]

But you don't. They have to buy separate policies, one for wind, one for flood, one for regular house coverage. SO no you do not pay more for these people. ANd believe it or not, outside of Florida, many working families live on/near the water. My town is fishermen, shrimpers and oystermen, not snotty rich people. We work on oil rigs, catch your favorite seafood.

[@machinegunrilla8629]

@@maggieking6619 I've lived in florida for 43yrs. Do some research and find out how many times we've replaced the beaches washed out by weather for the sake of saving these people's homes. And here in florida our coastal neighborhoods that I grew up in with surfers and fisherman and shrimpers have been priced out by rich snobby people from ever being able to afford to live on the beaches we grew up on... their insurance does not pay to replace the sandy coastline that has been ever changing since the beginning of time.

To clean house.

[@stevenhusmann3816]

thy just needed better seawalls, plenty houses left and right are fine only some walls breached.

[@icare7151]

The developers and builders completely failed in proper erosion protection measures. The local building codes must be changed. It’s unacceptable!

[@skateboardingjesus4006]

Completely agree. These houses should not have been permitted to be built. Glorified sandcastles.

[@nftportfolio]

Let them build what they want. Freedom. Liberals ruin everything with their HOA and bylaws. If the insurance company is stupid enough to sell the policy, it really doesn't matter.

[@DianaCB_TX]

Some falling in are homes from the 50's per another video by LMS

[@monacallender721]

Seriously. It’s the worse in 40 years. Who knows.

[@hebneh]

And this storm was barely even a hurricane. Ian was massively stronger. Had it hit this same area, all of these buildings plus the next row or two of inland ones would have been wiped out 100%. The highrise condos further down this same beach would've been undermined as well, leading potentially to those collapsing or tipping over.

[@kennysponto6568]

When the whole state submerges. Then what's your complaint?

[@nickg7205]

So what's the purpose of the building code if a passing grade results in this?

[@jimmyjames2022]

How is the drone so steady in that breeze, does it have gyros?

omg!! stunning! Best to everyone! we'll get thru this.

[@bonita1228]

Insurance rates will sky rocket for the rest of us too. Should not be allowed to rebuild. If they rebuild they need to find it themselves.

[@monacallender721]

Then everyone in a tornado should not be allowed to rebuild or a flood area. What’s the fracking difference. They should have known better.

[@cherylg46]

Heartbreaking 💔 Thx for sharing

[@timboc105]

Nothing Heart breaking about it

[@johnathanlamey8777]

Those areas need massive sea walls with convex faces towards the sea. Such a structure can protect all land based developments

[@johnathanlamey8777]

Sorry... actually a CONCAVE face towards the heavy waves.

[@ddieter603]

@@johnathanlamey8777 Not even.

[@hebneh]

Nope. What needs to happen increasingly is that endangered coastlines like this are going to have to be abandoned and left to nature. This type of destruction is due to uncontrolled development of barrier islands which should have been left alone and used purely for recreation, with only a few disposable buildings on them.

[@melvinjohnson2074]

This but have happened fast. The insides are still furnished, incredible.

You bought it you own it. Insurance coverage?

It was fine until it wasn’t, you build on a beach this is what happens

[@monacallender721]

Seriously. I wouldn’t hire you in a bet.

[@craiggillett5985]

How are these homes allowed to be built, on sand, on a coastline known to be susceptible to erosion, WITHOUT 30-50 ft concrete pilings? This wouldn’t be allowed in 🇳🇿 New Zealand 🇳🇿 or 🇦🇺

[@maggieking6619]

they were built when erosion was not so severe, the beaches were wide. This is a cumulative effect of climate change and FLorida developers being so greedy. And people refusing to see reality. It's all very inconvenient for deniers. I lived thru Katrina and I will never forget her power.

[@yvonnejohnson]

Sad to see this ...what ever they have in those houses that they can retrieve its best to do it now...because the tide is coming in harder and pulling away the sand...wow

[@stevenhusmann3816]

Oh look the beach is gone! Wait what are those structures revealed from under the dunes? Walls, boardwalk pylons, foundations of stairs. The beach is back to where she used to be. You want to build farther east? You're gonna need a bigger wall.

[@andrewvillanueva3722]

You can't build on sand that's not a solid foundation. Homes near the ocean must be built solid rock foundation like granite.

Thankfully they went out there and added those braces under the pool and deck after the storm passed. That'll keep things safe.

[@hebneh]

"Safe" for a few minutes, anyway.
