As per the video, she lives in a brick house 8 miles inland....so she’s obviously safe from the threat of high winds and catastrophic flooding. /s

Unfortunately, there are many homes described as “Brick” which are nothing more than standard frame homes with brick veneer fronts over the wall sheathing much the same place that siding would enclose.

In hurricanes, the damage generally starts at uplift on roofing/roof sheathing or at gable ends. Once the structure envelope is compromised, anything can follow.
