I heard it too. There's still places in Florida still devastated from last year's round of hurricanes. Many houses and buildings still have tarped roofs, and many residents still live in government housing.

Charlotte County in Florida is still a mess, almost a year after Charley came through. Many businesses have not been rebuilt, houses uninhabitable, and many still live in FEMA trailers.

And there was no standing water issue in Charlotte County, the run off happened quickly and the waters receded, unlike NO which will be underwater for weeks.

Had events gone like they should, NO would have been cleared of water in 2 weeks. Pumps failed, sandbags collapsed... UGH... A mess.
