[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Obviously the number may sadly go up. But I am quite surprised that so many people can survive a storm of that strength. I imagine that like most other hurricanes, many of them didn't evacuate. What's the explanation?[/quote] You posted this at 6:27 AM Friday. I live in Tampa Bay (in an outer county). I can tell you, it was still dark then! You think they found the dead people by then? I couldn't even tell if my roof was ok then (I had to leave for work. My house was fine thankfully, I am inland). That storm surge was something! Look at the video of the worker at Tampa General Hospital calmly inspecting the AquaWall from the inside while floodwaters smashed against the outside. My local county beach park, damaged during Idalia and just reopened months ago, was destroyed this time. The surge came in much further this time.[/quote]
