Whole state is gonna be under water soon
Might finally invest in a boat

Well tbf they're describing this as a once in 1000 year event.

We’ve had like 12 in the last 5 years. The math ain’t mathing

I told myself the same thing at one point, but at the time between the berthing fees, fuel costs and insurance...

FL just seems determined on squeezing anybody who owns anything, for as much as they can, before the whole thing collapses.

Just relaying the info provided. They haven't recorded anything like this in Fort Lauderdale. I've been living in Broward my entire life and have experienced only one other instance of similar flooding a couple years back (swale area and some of the driveway). What happened yesterday was at least twice as worst (water was up to the one foot step of my front door and had minor flooding inside my house thru the backdoor). Even more perspective, my neighborhood rarely if ever floods.

Insane what happened in FTL yesterday. They saying two feet of rain in one day off the dribble.

It was rainy in PBC yesterday but nothing like that. I'm South County on top of it and still we didn't get it that bad. That's crazy.

Airport will not officially open Until noon. They let people that wanted to leave at their own risk leave @ 2:30 near terminal one on the upper level. The lower level is not accessible.
We risked it and got an uber to miami international and have an early flight . But what is fukked up though is at FLL THEY cancelled every flight at like 8:00. Then auto rebooked everything for Southwest . after that if you were not happy with whay they did, you had to re book at the gate. Then-They asked you go to carousel 6 and got your checked bags. Once you did that, you could not come back inside. There were some upset people. We did not check any bags so we set in the terminal all night

There is no need to worry fascist desantis is already on it, a few more book bans about MLK and rosa parks should resolve the issue.

Damn shyt crazy

 

[chineebai]

No wonder flood insurance going up goddamn. I would sell my house and move.

We poured concrete on a swamp that meets the ocean



As a native Floridian I'm worried. Actually resigned, since our mayors and councils don't GAF.
It was never this bad growing up, shyt has only been getting worse year after year
Imagine an Andrew type cat 5 making landfall in South Florida
This shyt now is just water reclaiming it's level. We were never supposed to live here.

Houston the same way. A lot of SETX tbh

 

[RennisDeynolds]

Of course I carry my stupid ass down here right when the bugs bunny gif finna be reality smh


I was working from home all day and I don't live in a flood zone so I just thought it was raining hard. Didn't realize how bad it was until this girl I was texting was going to pick up her kids from her sister house in fort Lauderdale n told me her car just died on her and sent me these pics

If I wasn't at work I would've probably had to come save her

The car shortage just got even worse with this

 

[Armchair Militant]

Insurance going up

We stay losing

Climate change is gonna change society for the worst.
