Cruise Ship Tenders…

… serve as emergency pedestrian cross water transportation where bridges and causeways are out of service.

Florida, a center for cruise industry, should have spare cruise ship tenders available to be pressed into service as emergency pedestrian transportation where needed.

They are heavy duty industrial vessels set up for pedestrian access, already equipped with life preservers and other equipment required by coast guard.

Cruise industry can provide trained operators.

Stay Well..,,

Thank you for this. I have a friend in North Port. No word from her since just before the storm hit land. They decided to hunker down and "ride it out". Crazy!

How does someone so massively obese and out of shape get in a responsible position as a firefighter? Amazing.

Any news around Kirkwood St. in North Port, FL? We haven't heard from my grandmother since 10pm last night after part of the roof collapsed. We are very worried.

Im in NP, lots of flooding cant get to my house

Any more news from North Port ?

Anyone from North Port ?

IDIOTS WON'T LISTEN. MUTANTS

That city was just pounded yesterday. For like 5 hours I watched it on radar and it was constantly in the inner circle of thunderstorms, just one after another.

Enterprise Florida…..
Lost power at 5:58 am lost my front door as Ian stole it off the hinges

Why would you not want to evac., then floods your house, then o I need help and to be rescued, then why you stay and not evac. When they told you all to leave, but refused then now you want to be rescued. I'm jw, I don't understand thar at all. Facts.

Any pictures from North Port ?

Hey you guys out there there is this one man who built a home up near the panhandle It can sustain storms like this and come out with no problem don't you do that It can sustain storms like this and come out with no problem He made it especially and designed it for hurricanes I think people should check it out. While everybody's house crumbled for the most part he was pretty much the only one standing It was awesome I think off already and should do their house in somewhat the same manner so stuff like this doesn't happen

I HOPE PEOPLE CAN GET THEIR HOMES BACK.THIS SUCKS

West Bradenton here… Got power back around 230a .
Minimal damage and flooding in my direct location. Can't speak for the rest

Evacuation or stay home. Which is it?
