This Year's Hurricane Season will Dance On Both Sides of Florida. |
The hurricane season for 2007 will 'entertain' both sides of Florida
State - but for the most part, it will be 'Solo' dances with
'distinct' locations.
BUT, it will "RACK" many islands of the Caribbean.

A lot of insurance companies are canceling policies in Florida, no longer
writing new policies in Mississippi, and are drastically increasing their
rates for everyone along the East Coast. It's going to be very
interesting when people start losing multi-million dollar homes that they
can't insure. (There's a reason why the poor historically ended up
on the shorelines ....)

You know, Woods, we keep seeing homes directly on the beach in North
Carolina (Hatteras?) destroyed and rebuilt regularly. I believe there's a
state or a Federal insurance program that finances or otherwise provides
grants for this. It's been sort of a disgrace for decades. Maybe the
people in Louisiana and Mississippi just aren't special enough.

I don't know if they're pulling insurance from Louisiana, but the state of
Mississippi had a lot of wealthy people who lost their homes, and they
sued for better payouts, and won. (According to my daughter, insurance
companies frequently lose cases when claimants sue for more than what the
insurance company offers - remember that ;-).

I only see the images on a TV screen Woodsy. I don't think I'm alone
when I wonder just why people build flimsy dwellings there in the
first place.
Areas subject to Natural turmoil are sensibly the subject of strict
safety building regulations in most Countries.
It always looks as if your buildings are little more than collapsed
tin sheds. I'm amazed that insurance companies entertain extending
liabiliy to those wooden dwellings, and to the ubiquitous caravan
home.
The area seems to be filled with these lightweight shacks that would
blow away in a breeze..never mind a hurricane.
Can you cast light on this?

Sure can. Newer homes have a lot more constraints placed on them to
withstand hurricane force winds, while older homes did not have such
constraints. In their defense, way back when, they really didn't know how
to build homes to fit particular weather.
That said, when you see splinters all over the place, I can assure you
that they are not shacks, but are often well built homes. A storm surge
carries the same force as a tsunami, and it's the tornadoes embedded in
hurricanes that blow houses apart. Hurricane force winds can break
windows, peel roofs off, and destroy something like a mobile home, but
they certainly don't have the strength to reduce a stick built home to
kindling. (Tornadoes, on the other hand, can be strong enough to suck the
pavement up - nothing is left in the path of an F5, absolutely nothing).

Thanks...That's helpful. I don't fancy wandering Florida during a
hurricane then, considering that the shacks were houses! I've often
wondered about your building methods..mainly becuse so many in th US
favour houses made of wood. At least, they are covered in wood panels
rather than with concrete. There are some building style documentaries
here that are American, and there's quite a difference in the way many
things are made. The covering, or 'cladding' of houses with wood seems
very popular. I suppose that's just style preference. The integrity of
the building is probably sound enough.
The images in the wake of a hurricane would prompt me to move from
Florida I think!
That reminds me...I'm still due a 'wander' somewhere. Been too busy
gathering loot from buying and selling taxidermy lately. I suppose
I'll have to go back to France to see Danielle sometime in the next
few weeks, but even that raises an 'opportunity'...The heads of wild
boars. They are extensively hunted and mounted as trophies in France.
So many of them, means a lower price. Rare in the UK, a trip to visit
Danielle, combined with a search for a dozen wild boar's heads as well
as cigarettes, would be..profitable!
Thanks for the information Woodsy. Hell but it's peaceful talking
'normally' without that...inteloper...trolling. Suppose it will be
back though.

Personally, "I wouldn't be 'Booking' a Caribbean Vacation for the
coming months of the 'Hurricane Season' (June to August) for any of
these "Tropical Island" Destinations, myself !!!
The expected devastation of these Tropical Islands will exceed all
expectations.
The Devastation of Florida's Mainland (as minor as it will be), will
not compare to the 'Devistation' of the "Isles Of The West Indies".
Most of the hurricanes (of 2007) will drift 'westward' (into the
'Islands' of the West Indies), and proceed norrthward into Florida's
mainland.
The Florida KEYS will probably experience their 12 hours of Hurricane
'Passover' - as well.
But nothing as 'severe' as what will be seen in the Carribean !!!

It's the American way.. pick a word, change the spelling.. alter
the pronunciation slightly, and viola, you've got an American word.
:)
ps. I've seen it spelled 'cay' also.
cay (ke, ka)
n.
A small, low island composed largely of coral or sand.
[Alteration (influenced by QUAY) of Spanish cayo,
probably from Taino.]

I think someone here got it correct when they spelt it with a "C".(as
in Spanish OR French terminology).
I should have used the proper terminology/word "Keyes" - as this is
the more 'correct' way of referring to Florida's southern most island
'chain' or 'rift' of land masses.

I wouldn't even be surprised if it was a mis-understanding of the word
"Quays".
Maybe, because it had become one of the most 'preferred' places to
"Dock" your boat (in the Gulf Of Mexico) during a Tropical Storm .
And much of the terminology of the southern part of Florida was French
'Controlled' (during the early years of the 'Settlement' of North
America) anyway.
After all, "Baton Rouge" (is nothing more than a reference to a 'Red
Stick' on the Mississippi River) - in French !!!!

Yeah, stick built homes can actually take quite a bit, so long as the
builder didn't take shortcuts. (We do have some of that going on, and in
order to get away with it, I'm thinking there are some building inspectors
whose palms are well-greased).

Well, if you're not insured, certainly. Otherwise, you generally have
plenty of warning to get to someplace safe - several days, usually.
I'd also point out that the loss of a couple of shingles or a branch in a
yard doesn't make for very good drama, so you're not usually seeing
typical damage in the area, but those areas that were either hit by
tornadoes or a storm surge. Mobile homes, of course, don't withstand
much. I would also mention that once you get 25-50 miles inland, the
severity of a hurricane drops off quite a bit.
One exception to that is the devastation from Katrina - the cameras
couldn't really get in there. They're still picking up the pieces down
there. That was an unusually bad storm, as evidenced by the fact that
many of the shoreline homes that were destroyed by the storm surge had
been there for well over a century.
That reminds me...I'm still due a 'wander' somewhere. Been too busy
gathering loot from buying and selling taxidermy lately. I suppose I'll

I find it kind of weird that people would want to display stuffed animals
that they hadn't killed themselves. Must be a cultural thing - here, the
stuffed animals/heads that you see on people's walls are ones they've
hunted themselves.
Thanks for the information Woodsy. Hell but it's peaceful talking
'normally' without that...inteloper...trolling. Suppose it will be back
though.
