I was watching a webcam on Ft Myers’s beach. Over the span of 5 hours the water level went up considerably. Apparently it lost power as it’s off line now.

Oh boy, that was such fun...every two weeks a hurricane in Central Florida! In 2004 it was 4 hurricanes in a span of 6 weeks for Florida.

The ultimate live cams of the storm.
Check out Surge Cam #9, cam is mounted 10 ft off the ground.

I was watching that earlier as the water came up to engulf cam #9. What a stud! Academy award nomination. RIP cam #9

Not in Florida, but two Dahua PTZ's, another fixed point Dahua (night color), fixed point Hikvision (also night color), and a Camect NVR to with very good object A.I. to tell me if I need to chamber a round in the wee morning hours..

Who said anything about stopping it, its way too little, way too late as I've mentioned elsewhere. As to Ice Ages of course they have been, last one ended approx. 12,00 years ago. Its only the last several thousand years that the Climate was "relatively" stable that permitted "Civilization" (which would still be a good idea...) to exist today. Most of Earths Climate over the last geologic epochs is in one of two states...Hot House, or heavily glaciated and cold. Complete reversal from one state to the other can take as little as a dozen years. Despite your disbelief, we are now in Abrupt Change, and also well into the Sixth Global Mass Extinction. And again despite your disbelief, Humans caused this one. The effect Carbon has on the atmosphere, and its heat trapping ability were first discovered in 1856, We've been dumping Carbon into it ever since the Industrial Revolution. Been quite the party ever since, but the bill is due.

Guess you never heard of the "the little ice age".... Also you can't explain what caused it to end. Volcanos and forest fire cause way more issues than man. Climate change has been going on for billions of years. There are no deniers regarding that...there are a lot of people who have been misled and are deniers that climate change happens regardless of man. Look up the little ice age regarding the last major change of climate that had nothing to do with man yet man was here to record it.
p. s. Be very glad the planet warmed up. Cities are sinking faster than sea levels are rising.

Quick answer...NOPE. We contribute much much more than Vulcanism or forest fires (in relatively recent history) If you want to go way back in geologic history about 250 million years or so, the eruption of the Siberian Traps DID and resulted in the Permian Extinction Event (i.e. the great dying), the planet lost 90% of all species during this time. The last time CO2 levels were this high (currently 415ppm approx.) was during the Pliocene and temperature then were from 1.8 to 3.6 degrees higher than our own pre-industrial temps. A little bit more of temp increase will also cause global good drops to fail, shouldn't have to point out the consequences.

Waffle House Index is now Code Red.
This is a bad storm. 21 Waffle Houses have been closed between Naples north to Bradenton.

Starting to get some stronger gusts now, of course the real nasty stuff will come after dark when the power goes so you can trip over cords and miss the toilet

They may upgrade it after things settle down. At 7000 ft they were seeing 190-220mph all morning…of course that didn’t make it to ground level…
Here in Polk county, we are getting beat up. Wife in Pasco is letting the dogs out so not terrible. I did get to go out on the veranda and deny science for a while.
Remembering not to pee into the wind is science you can use!
What kind of tree is this? I’m concerned if it might easily be blown over. On a posirive note, it was just a few weeks that all windows, doors and garage door were upgraded to impact rated.

Well said.
I just laugh when they have a 40 year model that they want us to believe but are wrong with weather forecasts in shorter timespans...

This looks to be a good low light camera ..
