I was just watching the evening news and they were talking about Hurricane Irma and they said that in our area in Florida they do not think that all the debris will not get totally picked up until Christmas.
The pile is getting higher and higher in front of my house and even higher around the development. They also mentioned future storms possibly hitting here again in the near future.
This is really getting out of control. Besides that it is still so hot here and tomorrow will be in the mid 90's again. I hate hot weather.

They probably don't know what to do with all that debris. Oh my gosh, another storm? That's scary!:(

@kobesbuddy It is not negligent, there are not enough people to clean up after big storms and nowhere to put all the debris. We understand it and we know the worst has to be taken care of before anything else.

Maybe people should take matters in their own hands by forming volunteer brigades to recycle, burn, bury whatever. It has been proven that we cannot rely solely on our government in times of a major calamity, it's far far worst here in the Philippines when something like that happens.

There is to much devastation here and there is not enough people to get everything done very fast. We have all the down trees and debri in a big pile on our front lawn and we heard it won't be picked up for quite awhile. We need more man power and places to put all the stuff.

I know that. My husband wanted to come down here as he cannot take the cold. He has had many heart attacks and surgeries and the cold is not good for him. I stay inside a lot after I get my gardening done in the morning. After that I do not go outside.

Hurricane Irma was very devastating and am sorry to hear that the people in some areas will have to put up with the aftermath for so long.

@1hopefulman When you are my age things don't bother us as much any more. Things that bothered me years ago I overlook a lot now.

@LadyDuck I cannot even imagine what they are going through. My son is going on a cruise this weekend and is staying here overnight as the ship leaves out of Miami. He said the islands he is going to were not effected by the hurricane. Some of the cruise ships had to reroute there itinerary because of the storm.

It is. There are still areas here where the houses are apart and you can see in the front and out the back.

It is the humidy that gets to us. Do you know we have the exact same temperature at this time even though we are thousands of miles apart. But I'm inland and I can't even imagine how it must feel in those kinds of winds. It is so pretty right down to Miami even though I've only seen pictures being so close to the ocean would make me look seriously at weather forcasting.
