I just received a text from my friend in Venice. Said they were ok but lots of clean-up work needed at their place. Also said he and his wife will evacuate, next time.

Quote HistoryQuoted: Heard a guy on the Dana show talking about the huge difference in insurance cost responsibility between a Cat 4 and Cat 5 storm due to deductibles. Now hearing this storm was 1 MPH windspeed away from Cat 5 and still called a Cat 4. Anyone familiar with this or BS?  |

Now hearing this storm was 1 MPH windspeed away from Cat 5 and still called a Cat 4. Anyone familiar with this or BS? I don't recall hurricane category having any bearing on our insurance or deductible, but it DID impact the % of debris removal and cleanup costs municipalities could receive from FEMA. IIRC Cat 5 FEMA will reimburse the municipality 100%. |

edit out what I quoted as I did not go back far enough to see what was being talked about.
I am 30 mins south of gettysburg, and they are putting a new roof on as we speak/type. edit what a time to get a new roof, shingles will be in short supply. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Winkler and Gladiolus in Fort Myers. So far no water at all. Gutters aren’t even full. House is still getting beat up though. We’ve had multiple heavy impacts and I see lots of material belonging to this house spread around the street. Used to stay near there for 2 weeks every winter. Hurricane in 2017 really fucked the park up. Can only imagine what this one is gonna be like. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Is the tile dark colored? I found one 80-90' boat on google, and it's parked facing north, in front of a house with a dark gray roof. Quote HistoryQuoted: Quoted: What I'm generally being told is that '05 roofing codes dramatically reduced the blown roof syndrome seen in earlier hurricanes. Sanibel has very strict building codes, and most of the houses meet the new roofing codes. With that said, it didn't stop blown windows/doors/walls or flooding. So while the houses may look better from an aerial view (and likely have been much more survivable in a storm), the interiors are gutted. We shall see. My house has a tiled roof, and I suspect it will still look intact from the air. Is the tile dark colored? I found one 80-90' boat on google, and it's parked facing north, in front of a house with a dark gray roof.

It's on the mainland side. I have seen zero aerial footage besides the few stills posted by USCG. I'm kind of curious why they're not letting anyone fly over Sanibel right now.... This isn't the marina? https://www.ar15.com/media/mediaFiles/529571/sanibel_marina_jpg-2543982.JPG No - the Sanibel Marina referenced in all footage I've seen is actually in Fort Myers. Sanibel is (was) a fantastic place, and the mainland shops, marinas and hotels all used Sanibel in their name to cash in on the attraction. They're all mainland, though. I have seen no footage of the marina/gramma dots/fuel dock on Sanibel yet. I suspect that will be much worse than what we've seen to date. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: BTDT with Charley. The genny I'm using belongs to my SIL camper. 120v & not big enough to run mt well pumps. I know this is a long shot but I need: A carburetor for a GX240 8.0 Honda Generator. I'll pay cash. Quote HistoryQuoted: Quoted: Quoted: Well its all over but for the crying here in Punta Gorda. We came out the other side & it was bad but it could have been way worse. I know it is for a lot of folks. The eye went right over the house, it was a surreal moment to walk around outside for about half an hour looking at the damage. 2nd time I've done that. I have shingles missing, some damaged soffit & facia, bent railings, a tree top thru the 2nd floor screen enclosure. The house faired well which I am very grateful for. No idea when we will get power back. No cell service, currently posting from out T-mobile hot spot. Verizon is out totally. Only NBC-2 news casts on the TV. I'm on a borrowed generator as mine needs a new carb. Its only large enough to keep the fridge on. We're on a well so no running water until I can get my generator working. Wife ran out to check on the MIL place, she's right on Shell Creek & just had a new roof installed but the home was built in the '50's. I'm not optimistic that it survived, she has no insurance either. I can't describe the monumental task I have with clean up here. Every tree on my 5 acres is damaged. I'm not equipped to deal with it which has frazzled my last nerve. It will just sit there until such a time I can rent a skid steer & maybe an excavator. Not sure if my homeowners insurance picks up that cost. I'll need a new roof too which is the biggest hit right now. My thoughts go out to everyone near the coast, you all took it right on the chin. Alternate between the well and the fridge, as long as your gennie is big enough to hold up the well pump. Hopefully your well pump can be easily configured to safely hook to the generator. BT,DT. You are gonna want some running water in the next week or so. BTDT with Charley. The genny I'm using belongs to my SIL camper. 120v & not big enough to run mt well pumps.

Got some good news out of Venice.
My mom and aunt weathered the storm just fine. Minor home damage. The water is up to the front step. Still no cell service or power, but they are doing well. Had a friend that waded to the house and made contact with them. They had the option to leave and chose to stay. Random pics I found from the neighborhood. Not great, not terrible.
