Ian Hurricane damage to Fort Meyers too upsetted me, though right now I am not in US, Florida beach sides always are in my mind to settle if i survive to get there.
A dream site, even a few years surviving, living there, at a peaceful sea view is a happiness and could be a valuable meaning to life, even if hurricane is likely to catch lives every fifty years.
I mean, even it is a gambling against nature disaster, i would try it, i would take a chance. We human beings are all have a mortal end in different ways anyway.
So sad, %90 of Lee county dwelling architecture with a population of about 6000 people is lost by hurricane.
Only about 50 dead people announced.
Since definite identities are not determined, the real fatality number is not announced and, it is always in this manner traditionally. Even after many years, fatality number records stay same, very low, never give any idea about real dead people number. That's why I looked at the pictures and calculated that at least 5000 people lost their lifes by ian hurricane only in Lee County. I watched about at least 25 videos from Fort Meyer's Beach, Sanibel Island, I saw damaged houses that none could survive in them more than a day, and saw high rised buildings, big hotels comparatively not submerged underwater, not levelled to ground, but they also were damaged, their windows, roofs were gone, ian hurricane did not only caused floods, but also created high twisting pressures in sky. Flood swept away cottage comparable houses immediately, but the high pressure twister, tornado impact of ian hurricane was also too bad in Meyers Beach for high rised buildings. The ian hurricane seems caused only some flooding but luckily not tornado air damage in Naple, Florida
In a video, I realized ian hurricane high vacuuming speed that its pressure hammered a soft plaque through a tree body in a way that no current technology could craft. I saw such hammered ordinary matters passed through trees in other hurricane damaged areas. Such speed vacuums twist any matter, any human body to dust in seconds.
Ian hurricane massive flood also in South Carolina, in Orange City, Port Charlotte, Florida. Ian hurricane is not confined to only one city, or state.
A tv video talk from lee county government office, dated on 1 Sep 2022, informed that hurricane rescue asking people were above thousands, only in Lee County, FL, and imagined that unfortunately even on the first day of ian hurricane hundreds of people were dead. Even on the first day of ian hurricane, thousands were in need, thereafter, in disaster following 7 days, surviving in flood makes any human more needy for drinking water, for having sleep and rest. Many sank in flood in houses, in cars, thousands of people drowned. 10 days after Ian hurricane, thousands of people are still missing. Considering human survival ability, those rescue asking thousands of people (only from Lee County) unfortunately are unaccessible and can not be alive physiologically as of 8 September 2022.
I am so sorry about who passed away, rest in peace.
HURRICANE PREDICTION SUCCESS
Below is a path prediction for ian hurricane.
The recorded path of ian hurricane was a little bit different from the predicted path seen in below figure.
Anyway, the technology to predict ian hurricane is still awesome and very good.
Figure 1. Above figure is a prediction for ian hurricane. A prediction sometime in 27 September 2022.
The recorded real path was a little bit different but very close.
ARE THERE ALIVE PEOPLE IN THE SOMEHOW INTACT HOUSES
It seems, in Meyers Beach most of the houses were damaged, swept away into water, but some buildings were still at least standing in many videos, yet no human beings were on the roofs, nor asking for help.
Were they all drowned i wondered. Or they did not have time to climb high, or there was a second that water flooded as if tsunami inside houses that no video captured such too high flood, only receded flood height is captured.
After flood receded in a few days, videos showing house interiors prove clues of catastrophic scenes in rooms; tables, chairs were all over the places, despite intact enduring houses, human beings are always weak to stood against muddy flooding water, probably drowned, swept into ocean from broken windows. It takes at least 3 days for flood height decrease. Human will not stay alive even trying holding a wall, muddy water will take them down. It is not that in Meyer's Beach houses were weakly built.
At least 2000 people were supposed to trapped in Meyers Beach house roofs asking for help. This did not happened. Only few on the tops of trees were mentioned, i do not believe even gorillas could not stay on wet trees more than minutes, trees were swept away also.
If one would knock door by door to help Meyers Beach residents, would there be anyone inside standing. Were they alive and suffering.
My interpretation is that, thousands of Meyers Beach people drowned by hurricane tsunami or suffocated by hurricane twisting vacuuming in minutes.
There supposed to be many not alive bodies in flood water, thousands bodies, there were not. The damaged houses did not have anybody.
Hurricane kills people in a different way, maybe dusty suffocating air, maybe twisting, maybe drowning.
WERE THEY WRONG BY SETTLING IN WATERFRONT CITY AREAS of USA.
Some rumors suggest avoiding to settle at areas about 10 miles near big waters in USA. That they run into disasters by wrong choices, that they find unfortunate lands themselves.
Maybe true that tornados, floods, hurricanes frequently occurs at ocean or big water near lands.
Escaping from beatiful nature, this is against human psychology, most people find happiness by their nature view, having a house with a beautiful view is as if enjoying music. The ocean air, oxygen is even different at seasides, shores.
So many people are suicidal, drug dependent since they are unhappy with their house nature, view. Owing a nice viewed house is itself a nice life, psychological aid. We human are not on world to improve knowledge, science only, we human should like life, enjoy life. We human are not slaves. Seashores life is enjoyable, psychological supportive of mind. Increase quality of life, feeling better.
That, enormous disaster happens shouldn't change minds in loving seashores.
Holidays camps, hotels should be built at seasides despite high disaster chances.
What about freezing temperatures, earthquakes, volcanos. Dirty drinking water, gas polluted air.
To have any land in world is costly takes too much everywhere.
United States is not only one state, a few cities, but many of them.
Disasters is not new to US. Thats why it is USA. That is why it is there are 50 states in USA.
In short, that USA is many states is not an accidentally formed, it is what usa is.
I myself would even take a chance to die by a disaster with a dream of a waterfront city house. Even such a dream makes me work better, happier.
It is not that hurricanes happens every 100 years to erase a whole country. USA is USA.
