Weird fucking comment wtf. You wanted a denser area with more people to suffer? You can’t stop a hurricane, but did you want it to be another andrew or something? Andrew was terrible and that was still a lucky situation where the storm could’ve made landfall further north and caused far more damage
Saying as someone who’s lived in south fl my whole life btw
Edit: this guy lives in miami lol. I think he just wants to die

You sure this is Ft. Myers Beach? I drove the length of it last Sunday and nothing looked this good. It was total devastation and nothing was open. I feel real sorry for those people.

This is at the Bayfront Bistro, which was in surprisingly good shape considering how messed up the rest of Fort Myers Beach is.

Maybe it’s just because some tall guy named Ian was there

What is the point of keep living on a place like that, this may happen again on some years, everything will be ruined again.

They have this at a place in Jersey Shore for Sandy, not as high though

Yeah, my Dad lives(d) a few blocks north of there. FMB is totally annihilated and will probably turn into the next Miami Beach, unfortunately

I live in about 2 miles from Fort Myers beach. I can confirm the storm surge had the water 6 feet deep rushing down my street. Peoples belongings being brought off to wherever. It was insane and have never witnessed anything like it in my 36 years here.

It’s weird. We all end up paying for this. Over and over. For the rich to have a good view. Move!

There really should be a forced revamp of what these areas and their infrastructure should be. It's not if it's when.

Saw something similar in a restaurant in Beach Haven, NJ less than a year after Sandy.

Because it's paradise and failure is not an option.

What they're saying is that it's going to become more corporate owned entities rather than the privately owned, small town feel to the beach.

There is. Look up the FEMA 50% rule. It’s causing a lot of grief and confusion down here

Well when you repeatedly build in an area that had this happen you'd think someone would learn to build a solid building...
