I dont know why people stay. One of my best friends lives in Port Charlotte on the water NOW. Whenever we get storms on the east side I just leave and go have a vacation somewhere fun.
There is no reason to fk with storms this big. There is nothing you can do to save anything, so why bother...

I never understood staying if you are in the danger zone. I heard it all the time. "I am going to stay and protect my property". protect what? are you going to go up and hold the roof trusses on? bail the house out as it floods? I always tell people: no matter how smart or how tough you think you are, mother nature always wins!

Praying for everyone to be safe and praying that their homes, cars adn boats survive Hurricane Ian. My brother and some of his wifes family members have trailers at a Trailer Park in Fort Meyers for the Winter and are now think that they may be gone or heavely damged, will learn more tomorrow I guess.

I would think St James City at the south end of Pine Island would be obliterated. So many times the big surges never materialize. The angle that this storm came into charlotte harbor should have produced a huge storm surge. Not saying it didn’t but it should be a really good guide as to how far up the bays, inlets, bayou’s and rivers the really high water can go.
