The big glass building behind you with no windows anymore went thru a huge battle with the insurance company and it recently went up for sale, at the end, the big building behind the 1 10 bridge was isle of capri casino , it was open until rita before it closed wnd never opened until they got it back running again 3 years afterward as horseshoe casino, it was devestating, i live 1 hr north of lake charles and i evacuated but my parents stayed bafk and i remember seeing the new the next day and i actually started crying. I remember i teacked the storm since it was a wave in the douth Atlantic and thinking about we could get hit by a hurricane was terrifying for me.

Another great video icyclone!, Laura was an absolute beast and being a nocturnal event must of made it even more sketchy. Have to say though I do always like see a good power flash!

I remember these 2 seasons,you could only chase in the US because of covid restrictions but man,did they ever kept you busy. Good job!

My grandparents and other family live in Louisiana and ironically my granddad and his wife live in DeRidder (quite a few miles north of lake charles) and even from there West Park in DeRidder was destroyed. It was crazy.

Yeah you’re right. That’s that high tower of glass I remember. Great storm very dangerous but heart racing 😎🎥👍🏽 love all your work and watch your great content always. I will join in the fun soon as I be moving to the Philippines later this year and starting a family and new life to build and simple life in the mountains. Always welcome to stay anytime you’re chasing in the Philippines. We have a New Strong concrete home with great views of mountains and hills of palm trees and banana trees, so you’re always welcome.. 👍🏽

I remember in 2004 we had 4 hurricanes impact central Florida within months.

[@thehuracan]

Wow, it's something strange and strong that more than 2 Hurricanes passed in the same place.

[@emillanza7816]

Great video. Will there be any videos for hurricane Fiona and Lisa? Also, I really enjoyed mission hurricane. ❤

[@Gavin-ii7ho]

Did you record hurricane guam

[@danielelise7348]

Err so lightning can & often does strike in the same place,twice,even 3 or 4 times.🌩️⛈️⚡⚡

[@pollenatrix]

I wonder how anyone can get home insurance in these areas to protect against such destructive acts of nature.

[@jrrp5865]

So... no Fiona video ??

[@iCyclone]

It's coming. I just have to find time to work on it.

[@jrrp5865]

Ok 🥲🥲@@iCyclone

[@Dave-id6sj]

Please tell me you are in Guam for
Typhoon Mawar

[@iCyclone]

No, and I'm glad I didn't. The storm weakened dramatically as it approached the island and barely nicked it.

2023,Florida's luck might run out
