    Learned more in this 13 minute video than I would have on a 4 hour documentary series about the storm on the Weather Channel. Actually, the WC would leave me with more questions than answers. Thank you sir.

    The Weather Channel has been garbage for over a decade now. They overhype everything, even by naming winter storms. All they care about are their own stupid documentarys and reality series that no one watches.

Our community and surrounding communities have not recovered. It will be years.. We just NOW got our insurance settlement and can finally put on a new roof, replace windows, rebuild our front porch, etc.. It was and is a devastating thing to have a CAT 4, or 5 hit you.. Living in the immediate aftermath was insane..like a bomb went off in every direction..debris everywhere, 12 ft high along the roads and neighborhood streets once cleanup operations began 3 weeks later.. For 4 months you could only see debris fields out every window.. Millions of trees in the county..gone..half the homes gone.. Tons and tons of debris, demolished properties, belongings, etc... had to be removed truckloads at a time..that was a monumental task.. Breathing was hard for many of us.. as air quality was poor..due to mold, demolition, ..and still is a constant health issue, due to all the teardown and construction all around on a mass scale. But we got through it all and will get through...with the help of Almighty God..my Heavenly Father. He provided many miraculous ways for our family and our neighbors who lost everything/homes/ businesses..to remain positive and hopeful. We had our lives and that's all that mattered! May God's protection be with all our fellow Floridians, and may prayers go up to Heaven for "those survivors" on the islands this storm just destroyed.. And a friendly reminder..Jesus loves you and me.. Call upon Him in times of trouble..He will hear and help you..He is the ROCK on which I stand..He will be your Rock too.
