People don’t understand how far inland the storm surge will reach.

We had a cat4 last year here in the Keys and from Islamorada to just north of Key West the damage was extensive. So bad "Big Pine key will be three or four years recovering if they are allowed to rebuild." Houses that had more than 50% of damage are not allowed to rebuild.

We have 1,300 hotel rooms in Islamorada. We still have only a little more than half ready for occupancy.THey are our economy.

Every day from 6-9 am we have a steady stream of const. workers heading to the middle and lower keys from the mainland to go to work. Few know how bad it was down here.

]If you are in the danger zone in the panhandle get the hell out of harms way or you may not be here after the storm.
