You can stock up on non perishable food, cook on your BBQ in a safe area, listen to the radio and wait it out. Truly think we're in a safe enough area.Hopefully we'll never have to experience it though.

Skip....you were down here when Sandy hit Long Island...and when it hit it wasnt a hurricane.

Those that sheltered in place...in Fire Island, Breezy Point and other low lying areas...quickly regretted it. Sheltering in place can sometimes be the most foolish option.

After Harvey, im thinking of getting flood insurance. Can you imagine what the amount of rain that hit Texas hitting TV.

We, lived on LI during hurricane Sandy. Laughing a bit-our government did not declare it a hurricane, SHAFTING THE INSURANCE COMPANIES as most people did not have hurricane coverage. We lived about a mile up from the water. People on the water-homes then worth over a million each found boats through their homes-I HAVE PICTURES. We were without power for 6 days.

Sumter County and THE VILLAGES are NOT assisting residents get sand bags. WILDWOOD- Yes, Lake County -
Yes, Marion County - Yes. I think it is time to replace the current County Commissioners. They do not appear to have the best interests of their constituents in mind. WE need answers fron out CCD's as well!
