Was thinking this as well. But I guess if your house floats away.
Me too, but having been through a hundred of these things, here’s my 2 cents -
You tend to gauge these things by past experience, and none of those people expected this thing to move there a sit on them for 2 days and dump trillions of gallons of water on them, they expected it to blow on through with past results. They were probably prepared for what they had seen in the past and were not told any differently.
Not saying that’s right or wrong it’s just human nature. We learned a long time ago to be ready for a solid month of being on your own, it’s happened multiple times since living here. We never trust our ability to survive on anyone else, but even so we’ve been surprised more than once by tornadoes and other stuff that hit us during the storm.

I got another update from my buddy who’s with the line crews, he says they have not seen a FEMA person anywhere. He has heard there are some out there but not seen A SINGLE ONE OF THEM
This was as of 15 minutes ago
 

The Hatians will bring all the generators, excavators and support equipment from Springfield Ohio, No need for trucks to haul them. The citizens future tax money well spent.

Looks like FEMA is sitting this one out, To the American people....."You're on your own!"

Gee.................................. IKE must have known something............................

 
My ex-wife was a State Farm insurance agent and any damage done by flooding will not be covered by any insurance company as far as I know unless you have FEMA policy if you are in a known flood plain. Most of these people will not have FLOOD insurance.

State Farm screwed all the Florida policy owners in Florida during the 2005 season and they pulled out of the state completely back then.

Looks like insurance companies are going to stick it to policy owners in this event as well, so their won't be much rebuilding in this inflated economy.

Homeowners are rushing to file insurance claims after Hurricane Helene left a trail of destruction across six states. Many of them will likely be left empty-handed.
Property insurers in recent years have hollowed out coverage and sharply increased rates to make up for steep underwriting losses driven by natural disasters. Owners of homes and businesses slammed by Helene could be in for a nasty shock when they check the small print of their policies.
“Insurers have become significantly tougher on hurricane claims,” said Rick Tutwiler, a claims adjuster for property owners based in Tampa, Fla. “We’ve moved to an era dominated by exclusions, diminishing coverages, and even harsher policy terms.”
Helene is one of the deadliest and most destructive hurricanes to hit the U.S. in recent years, with property damage pegged at $15 billion to $26 billion by ratings firm Moody’s. The insured loss, however, will likely be at the lower end of initial forecasts, which ranged from around $5 billion to $15 billion, according to John Neal, chief executive of the Lloyd’s of London insurance marketplace.
Much of the shortfall is because typical home insurance policies don’t cover flooding, and most people don’t have separate flood insurance. Another reason is an increase in coverage restrictions.
Policies in hurricane-prone areas are now more likely to have higher deductibles for wind damage, reduced payouts for older roofs, limits on interior water damage and exclusions for damage from wind-driven rain, according to insurance agents.



If this looks like a good way to force people to move to urban smart cities because their insurance won't pay out to rebuild you are watching with OPEN eyes.
