    When I was serving in the Royal Navy on board HMS GLASGOW. We were called to do disaster relief on the island off ST Lucia in 1980 when hurricane Allen hit the island it certainly was devastating. So much damage caused. We had to do electric repairs especially in the hospital we had to fly food around to island with the helicopter to feed locals who had lost everything. What an experience. So do all stay safe and look out for one another. Great video stay safe.

      Yes, many severe loss, injuries and people who have lost everything…and even though many areas has some flooding…the places that took the biggest hit and had severe storm surge…don’t have much to laugh about today…many prayers for those who had it really bad…so many youtubers are using this to make a good video and have some drama for entertainment …at least jill mentioned people more affected.

    My grandparents live half of the year in Venice FL and they usually never go back down to FL in September but they had to for doctors appointments! They went through the hurricane as well luckily they're safe but they have no power! But when I tell you yesterday when they didn't answer our group chat for over 5 hours it was absolutely terrifying!!!

    You all are extremely luck you didn’t lose power, I had to wait nine days after Hurricane Ida hit last year for it to be restored. Mike and Ryan are also lucky they don’t have much debris to pick up. Last year my pile of debris was six feet tall and fifteen feet wide and it took me four days to clean up. 🌀

    Thnx for sharing your enjoyable video especially the frisbee toss!! We’ve been living in Venice for 6 yrs but this is our first hurricane we stayed for while we evacuated to Charlotte for Irma in 2017. Ian was a doozy without power for 4 nights, flooded street that prevented us from leaving for 2 days! Except for minor damage and inconveniences I’m glad we stayed!!
    Heartbreaking for folks south of us who are living a nightmare each n every day!😢😭😱
    Glad you’re safe and your kitties too!! We have two kitties also who were bewildered through the storm with the house being dark!! But we survived, unlike the 100+ who perished!! 😭🥵

    I've lived in Orlando 62 years and this storm was ridiculous. Never have I seen the flooding like this. We were fortunate as to not have flooding in our development. Only had one of our oak trees come down and several large tree limbs. Every storm is totally different. 2004 we had 3 storms in 6 weeks was without power 5 days with each. Ian so much worse and just lastest forever. So many have lost so much.
