Member FDIC: Swiss Re did a study where they estimated that if Hurricane Andrew happened again and hit Miami, it would cost in the neighborhood of a quarter trillion dollars. That was in 2017, so that number has gone nowhere but up.

155 mph in June, Jesus Christ. Thing might be a Cat 5 in a few hours.

I am think we are gonna have a major crisis in the next month when one of these hits Florida, or the gulf coast.

I have been trying to warn people that we’re not really prepared for a Cat 5 landfall in Miami or Tampa.

It’s insane how dense Miami has become. Every year I hope this isn’t the year.

And the water is so warm everywhere that any tropical storm two days from landfall could potentially hit with 175 mph winds. Like Wilma, from... 2005.

Yeah, I’m pretty worried about August.

The terrible federal response in 2005 helped lead to the 2006 blue wave, and a good response to Hurricane Sandy helped Obama in 2012. But I am very concerned that no matter how good Biden's FEMA is this season, Gulf Coast governors will work to undermine it and him.

I just don't see any chance in hell that someone like Abbott or DeSantis will put politics aside in a disaster this time. Only Roy Cooper would, and I don't wish a deadly hurricane on my dear state.

Abbot will absolutely delay an emergency declaration and then blame Biden for responding too slow
