This morning

That's my point.

Suddenly a mother nature disaster in a blue state and there’s hell to pay.

Life is all about ME,

Really?

If I were to be trying to save someone from drowning, I’m not going to ask how it happened while I’m doing it.

We know what tribe is complaining, its a one track train.

Maybe some should return favors they enjoyed.

[Animl-AW]

Really?

Absolutely.

Why do people hate someone who sins differently than they do?

My biggest sin is having morals and empathy. I’m a bad man, a very bad man!
Logic us over rated

[RUSH1]

We dodged the bullet on 2 major storms hitting the Gulf Coast last season. Some minor flooding and a couple screens flew off. Still recovering from Ian with over 100k in damage.

Seems as though historically thankfully most of those storms wont hit the same spot for long periods of time.

Correct.  I believe every 100 years is the estimate/average for taking a direct hit if you live along the coast of FL.

So, the scrutiny over the fires in CA has nothing to do with possible mismanagement?

True on direct hits. But that entire southern coast takes 1-3 per year. One town over doesn’t count?

Every square inch of the country can have a 100 yr disaster.

Pretty sure this is LA 100 yr disaster.

Not arguing, just sayin

Midwest in my backyard its tornados.

Seems as though historically thankfully most of those storms wont hit the same spot for long periods of time. Irma came through and actually being north of the eye caused all the canals to run dry by pulling all the water out which I would think be ideal living in coastal areas.
It is starting to look very dismal though. This year only had 2 homeowners insurance carriers left that we had to choose from and premiums are at an all time high. Some neighbors not too fortunate as insurance companies packed up and left the day before Ian.

You just never know anymore. I grew up in the Hudson Valley NY. They got pumbled in 23' with a thousand year storm that caused many homes to flood. Never in a million years would call that one.

Looking more and more like a bailout will be coming for insurance companies, or something is going to have to happen. Millions of people aren't just going to leave Florida. And at this point, pretty much no where is safe from a natural disaster. Even if they think they are prepared. Fire, tornado, flood, hurricane, ect. It could hit anywhere at any time. I'm not sure what's going to happen, but if we can send 50B to Ukraine, we should have enough to bail out insurance Cos, along with the actual citizens who are suffering. If they dont. Than you can just clearly see the agenda to screw over Americans as much as possible until they are broken

Every disaster has a mismanagement, even though it would not have mattered. Half-truths.
Yep, their water was not setup for massive fires (name a city or suburb that is)

That said, hose water was evaporating into steam before it even hit the ground. 800-1,800 degrees is damn hot. It was air drops that got it. We all know you’re not flying in 100mph winds

Roads where blocked by abandoned cars for about 2 hrs, fire trucks could not pass to get where they needed.

A funding cut 3-4 yrs ago understaffed the FD.

People who cut fundings might pay attention.

They will get bailed out where its due.
If we can guve tax cuts to the rich, we can afford it.

[Animl-AW]

A thought.
It take 3 fire trucks per house fire.
Its estimated this fire required 24,000 trucks

"Tax cuts to the rich". You mean the 10% of the people who pay 90% of the taxes. Are you aware that half the people in this country pay no taxes at all? Everyone of voting age should be paying taxes. In the Soviet Union it was illegal to not work. Maybe that's one thing they got right.

A direct hit and just 20 miles away is apples to oranges.  Also, what side of the eye you are on makes a tremendous difference.  There are many variables to consider.  Most of the damage you see on TV, though, is from storm surge along barrier islands.

LOL, exactly.
