Looks like I'm the only one left on my corner.

Hmmmm...are you on the water or otherwise in a flood zone?

This used to be Zone B, but now it's called Zone X. I'm about a mile, mile and a half from the coast. Actually, most of the area around me is Zone A. My block seems to be located on a tiny bit of higher ground in Cutler Ridge, like a tiny little island surrounded by Zone A. When Katrina hit here, all of Cutler Ridge flooded with two feet of water which lasted several days, except for two or three blocks around me.

What worries me is the possibility of waterspouts. There are no barrier islands directly opposite my area. To the north, there's Key Biscayne, and to the south, there's Sands Key, which is followed by the rest of the Florida Keys. So there's a large gap where I am. If a waterspout forms out there in Biscayne Bay in my area, there's nothing to block it or slow it down if it comes at Cutler Ridge.
