Extreme Debris Filled Winds, Placida, Florida - Hurricane Ian - 9/28/2022

[@jerryconner4270]

A shout out to Florida emergency management. I live in a manufactured home in fairway village largo and with help of my veterans affairs case manager,, was evacuated to Dunedin middle school used as emergency shelter for this hurricane. I'm still at the Dunedin middle school which was used for emergency shelter during evacuation, its special needs people. The staff have been complete professionals very kind and loving, supplied excellent care food and service to citizens. Thank you to all employees, emergency people and staff in taking care of us. Still waiting to get approved so we can return too our homes. A few grumpy citizens wanting to leave but I'm impressed by the kindness and love the staff showed and continues to do so. I will probably never again be in the company of a finer group of people. Thank you, too all that served and protected us.

[@dianapearson1771]

God bell them and you!!! So sorry you all have had to go through this!!!

[@jerryconner4270]

@Davrotu72 i don't have any past experience with this staff, agencies. This was arranged by calling emergency management that was supplied in the local newspaper flyer you receive in you're mail along with standard junk mail. They arranged everything in a timely professional manner and all service was truly professional. Keep in mind its emergency shelter, but lots of thought went into preparation. The many different staff people all worked as a team, very impressive, I can't say enough. In addition , they put in many hours with little sleep. Full attention was given those in need.

Keep close to your family, social networks and neighbors because they will be there to support you once the temporary relief has pulled up stakes. Self care practices will prepare you for the times ahead, try them now. Take in that beautiful sunset of yours. Much love to all.

@@purplenights1 I would say many are elderly living in homes they have owned for decades. They are on fixed incomes. There is not flood or hurricane insurance. They may not have family members to turn to. Nor the means to relocate. They will not receive help from FEMA or US Government. It is heartbreaking to see. These are people who have worked hard their entire life, spent money wisely only to end up homeless at an age they physically can not start over. It’s happening in natural disasters from hurricanes, tornados, wildfires, etc. One day Larry you may reach a point where you look back and understand what I was saying❤🙏

@@purplenights1 dude, at least show some respect. People can choose where they want to live. It isn’t like it’s their fault.

[@lioleigh9791]

FEMA and aid groups like the Red Cross will be there for sure. This flooding from the surge reminds me a little of Hurricane Katrina in that it was enexpectedly high water levels, completely devastating. I'm sure most around the country (myself included) will be donating to help. But we need to be on watch for gofundme scams, only give to verified people/groups.

[@franka2743]

@@Graphics_Card while my heart goes out to these people, the fact of the matter is that this happens every so many years, and it's the same routine every time-- stuff gets destroyed, news coverage shows crying people and the aftermath/destruction, and then people stay there and it happens again and again, rinse and repeat. Living in a mobile home in a place well known for its hurricanes isn't a very smart choice. As for the rich, I get tired of hearing their crying every time this happens because they deliberately choose to live there and rebuild each and every time-- so the person has a point.

This is why you don't want to be in a mobile home whether it's in a tornado or hurricane.

[@oneperson5760]

These homes actually fared better than i would expect. And some people don't have a choice. I live in a doublewide, and we turned a large set of concrete steps into a tornado shelter, because I got tired of having to run down to the creekbed every time there was a tornado warning.

[@Graphics_Card]

They tell you that on the evacuation maps. Regardless of zone, mobile home owners are always required to evacuate.

[@oneperson5760]

@@Graphics_Card , I understand. But if you are elderly or disabled or poor, and there is no one to help you, being required to and actually being able to are not the same thing. I would hope everyone would have at least one person they could call for help getting out, but previous storms have taught us that's not the case.

[@Graphics_Card]

@@oneperson5760 Then that is something that should have been taken care of before. Which brings us to another point. Always prepare, and not last minute. This is why they tell you on the news.

[@truthteller9580]

@@Graphics_Card you completely missed what they said and fail to understand that the news can tell people to leave all they want. Most people have no where to go or no one to turn to in these situations (common sense). To go somewhere you need a couple hundred dollars to a thousand and most people don’t just have that lying around (also common sense) The gas prices in FL were even made more expensive when people were trying to fill up their gas tanks to evacuate.. It’s not easy just to get up and go without being able to afford it. Not everyone has the funds or resources where they are able to relocate to a safe destination. (Common sense)

*2 of 4* Cities are spending millions of dollars to open and run homeless bed shelters; that the homeless reject due to the many restrictions and lack of security. _Pallet Shelter's_ two person _Shelter 64_ cost only $7,000 and provides a dignified, secure sleeping base of operation. So for only $201,000 [$120 tents] a city can establish and run a *Homeless Shelter Village* [HSV] with 1000 shelters that can accommodate 2,000 people: 2 beds and belongings per 10'X10' tent.

[@rebeckylee157]

Do your research before asking why people live in homes like these. People live in what they can afford. And mobile homes and crappy modular homes are very cheap for those who cannot afford brick, mortar, and stone construction that is actually up to hurricane code. As for the residents of this particular area: I’m very sorry for your losses. Having lived through Hurricane Sandy, Irene, and Gloria in southern NJ and Hurricane Andrew in FL, I know how awful this is for you right now.

My guess is "storm chasers" who do this as a hobby or even sometimes as a job for the video.

Hope it had been evacuated.

[@brianmcginley7215]

2 guys, they're doing it for licensing and broadcast. Good filming, i'm glad someone got good footage. They deliberately picked a trailer park (think it might be Gasparilla Mobile Estates) as they KNEW that would make for the most dramatic video as these are kinda permanent trailers but they just will not stand up to a direct hit by a Cat4 storm. Hence....head there, get the max wins, license video, make lots of money from broadcasters and TV networks paying them.
