My family had a time share in this exact neighborhood for 20 years from 1988 to 2008. I saw Humacao in the title but was actually shocked to see this video being filmed on the exact street we spent many months cumulatively in my life over those two decades. Very surreal to see Palmanova Plaza again. I even remember when Puerto Rico was battered by major hurricane Debby in the year 2000 as well. The Beach Bohio restaurant was totally destroyed and took a couple years to rebuild. Really heartbreaking to see this as there are some truly wonderful people in Palmas Del Mar. And I remember Hurricane Maria pretty well, because I live in Tampa and this was literally 4 days after Hurricane Irma battered the west coast of Florida.
Those people who have passed through this scary times together and survived, they will cling together after that like a close friends for a lifetime because of that hard time togetherness. 💕🤷♂️🙋♀️
It's not a good event to remember, but it's still a good memories that no one will never forget for having been sharing bad times together that directly create love even more🤷♂️🙋♀️💕
That decrease in wind speed that you showed at about 6.33am was that you were close to the eye ceiling almost crossing over your heads. Then you noticed the wind speed increased again. That was the eastern side of the hurricane hitting you. You guys were lucky my friend! I am glad you came out all well from this mayhem!
My grandparents and other family live in Louisiana and ironically my granddad and his wife live in DeRidder (quite a few miles north of lake charles) and even from there West Park in DeRidder was destroyed. It was crazy.
Ida was a Cat 5 hurricane, not a 4. The NOAA misclassified it on a technicality, and to the benefit of the homeowners' insurance companies. It's ok if you don't believe me, but those of us who live in Houma and know what we saw, know that it was a 5. So do all of the people in Port Fourchon who were monitoring Coast Guard certified wind instrumentation.
I'm going to disagree with you. I rode out the hurricane in Houma. While it was a strong hurricane, it was nowhere near as strong as the five Category 5 hurricanes I've been in (DEAN, HAIYAN, MANGKHUT, MICHAEL, DORIAN). That extreme gust in Port Fourchon was not included in the official report because there were questions around its accuracy.
As a Houma resident who rode out the storm, I want to personally thank you for this video. It really shows just how powerful Ida truly was. It's so crazy to see these places I'm so familiar with getting hammered, especially since I pass by that hotel you were in practically every day. You did an excellent job documenting the storm as it passed you. You've earned my sub. Keep it up ❤
@@iCyclone Most things are back to normal. Some businesses have fallen under, and remain torn apart like the day Ida came through. Some roofs retain their blue tarps, and some churches still lack roof shingles.
I live in Perdido key fl which Alabama Florida line an we got hit so hard I ended up with a tree in my house safe to say I went through Ivan and sally an sally gave me ptsd
I've heard some ramblings that the 2024 Atlantic Hurricane Season could potentially be a doozy of a season? since the SSTs/Sea Surface Temperatures & the UOHC/Upper Ocean Heat Content in the tropical Atlantic and especially in the MDR Main Development Region are at temperatures what you usually see in mid July which is blazing hot for this time of year especially off the coast of Africa which is concerning for the 2024 Atlantic Hurricane Season according to most weather experts??
