Yo kiwis my home state is getting fucked hard. (Yeah said was from somewhere else was bs didn wish to give real residency) but it looks like my gome town of tampa is gonna get fucked along with a lot of other peoples home towns. My dad told me stories of cleaning up after andrew said it was apocolyptic. Like a bomb exploded. Nothing around for miles. So just wanted to ask if you all could just say a little something for florida and for all those people that are getting fucked. Along with those people down in Puerto rico and barbuda and saint maartin who got it much worse then us. id really appreciate it.

Film outside when wind speed is 100 miles and ill give you all the winner ratings youll ever need
 
Hopefully everyone lives through it but if you insist on building an entire state on what amounts to a shifting, rapidly subsiding sand spit that's barely above sea level staring down the barrel of hurricane alley you kinda get what you ask for. It's sorta like the UK "Hurr DURR let's build this town on a flood plane that'll never bite us in the ass" attitude except you guys have ALL the land in the world, you don't NEED Florida. Srsly though I hope nobody dies.

EDIT: I DO hope Mar El Lago gets flooded and washed away just so Trump can't play golf any more and has to maybe President for a few weeks while it gets rebuilt.
 
I thought Florida was America's penis.
I guess that's why the fabled Florida Man can be such a dick at times, amirite?
(Floridian here, our family made it through the hurricane with no real major damage to life or property. We lost power for a while but we're back up and running again.)

Will he Hurricane do something about the smell in Pensacola?

Discuss


Man, I read this post after being decades removed from Pensacola and I can swear I caught a whiff of it.
 
Even though the east side of the hurricane is much worse than the other side, my area (and at my folks' house in Melbourne on the mainland) only got away with downed branches and a brief power outage from 1 A.M. to around 9:15 A.M. I continue to pray for the other cities in Florida (and other surrounding states, especially Texas) that weren't so lucky.
 
After being in Florida for almost 3 weeks now I can safely say this state sucks! People drive like assholes and the roads are autistic.
 
Sorry for unbury this thread from the graveyard but I spotted that article via a post on Telegram about FEMA disaster fund for Florida and it's not good it all!

The federal government's disaster relief fund is on pace to run out of money at the height of both the hurricane and wildfire seasons, a top official warned this week.

Why it matters: Government funding emergencies aren't new, but the climate crisis has sent the number of costly natural disasters soaring, stretching the Federal Emergency Management Agency thin at the worst time of year.

What they're saying: "We can no longer speak of a 'disaster season' — we now face intensified natural disasters throughout the year, often in places that are not used to experiencing them," FEMA Administrator Deanne Criswell told a House subcommittee Thursday.

  • Criswell said that in 2010, FEMA had 108 declared disasters to support. A decade later, the number jumped to 315.
  • "Our mission has not changed, but our operating environment has," she said. "And with that, comes the challenge of ensuring that everyone who qualifies for FEMA assistance is able to access that help."
The big picture: The U.S. has experienced 12 weather and climate disasters so far this year, killing 100 people and each causing losses over $1 billion, according to the National Centers for Environmental Information.
