ty again Mopos

It turned out to be more of a fizzer. Not many died or injuries Edited 13-Oct-24 02:42am

TY Mopos..!!

Amen to that, BB but what became of the I through L storms in the Atlantic and the Gulf coasts?

I hope the U.S. government puts more money into saving the people because something is very wrong if they continue to spend billions helping countries commit genocides but they are very slow in getting help into the regions being devastated right now in their own country.

so sad whats happend.

One killed my cousin in Miami many years ago

Hope they will recover as quickly as they normally do. I wouldn't live there for all the money in the world.

I'm in country where foreigners are citizens they treat citizens like foreigner's

My nephew, his ex wife and great nephew are in Florida, Groton, I believe, no word from them yet.

May God be with these people in the wake of Hurricane Milton.

I feel sorry for the animals such as pets. I hope people are looking out for them too.

There are a few Helene's and one Milton on rewardia. I bet they don't appreciate being compared to a hurricane. Lol. Just as well it's not named KAREN. 😆

We are indeed fortunate that we live in a somewhat "safe" area of the world. We get the occasional cyclone but we don't get the constant hurricanes and tornadoes that some states in the US seem to get. Our thoughts are with them but Americans are very resilient people and are good at helping one another in times of need so I'm sure they'll all be back on their feet in no time.

We should help with more than words & Blessings.Children need food & clothing .Families need dwellings .We do live in the lucky country

All the good energy, generated by you Boy Blunder now goes over there and sure helps, I believe that it helps...🙏

so am i in adelaide and loving it

LIFE is up and down. The MSM loves magnifying things. Talk to people on the ground to get unblemished facts, which you will get on MSM. BTW peope know what to expect when they move. Florida has storms every year and will forever find friends in different parts of world to get truth not MSM BS>Edited 11-Oct-24 16:43pm

I hope everyone affected is ok .

It is heartbreaking to hear that people have lost their lives, material things can eventually be replaced

Just take it as is comes. Not much you can do about it. just try and stay safe as possible.

It's sad when this happens as long person health and saved. This is best gift in life

We are house sitting in Adelaide and the weather has been perfect..

I feel for the people affected but such is life.

Shocking devistation in Florida, but let's face it, we can get deadly storms and cyclines in Australia too.

My son and his girlfriend went to Vietnam last month for a holiday, head to leave on 2nd day because of the typhoon, they had saved hard for this holiday too.

I live in East, Tennessee and we got his hard by Helene. So much damage, highways are gone, roads to my house were gone. It's devastating.

That bad

Devastating! ..... one disaster after another 😢..... prayers and thoughts to those affected .... 🙏 (how do these poor people cope??) .....

we have cyclones here in Australia

Yes it certainly is a mess over there. Hope help is on the way and they can restore places as quickly as possible but it will take years. It is very sad in deed and like they say you can rebuild buildings but you can't replace people. Here's sending good wishes and love to all affected, Be strong and stay safe.

Do the stay-at-home folk in Florida really think that God will save them?

HI Cher..ty

Cyclones in the nw

I agree, we are lucky living on the southern states of Australia, it may get cold, floods and bushfires but nothing like we are seeing over the USA. Mother Nature is certainly not happy.

AMEN

TYVM Hanno

I been praying for those living on the East Coast and have made a donation to help. Unfortunately, FEMA is totally screwed up offering $750 for relief, but if people can't pay it back, the government will take their property.

Katrina was pretty bad for the east coast. Helene was pretty bad for nc. Completely wiped out the mountain homes that are not going to be rebuilt. There are still bodies that haven't been picked up just bloated and smelling up the air. In biltmore village you can literally smell death in the air. Sorry I'm a scatter brain.

Gabrielle and Hale are bad words in NZ.

we are in the safest place in the world, but bushfires and floods are things we need to deal with

All peaceful here in Melbourne, we are very fortunate not to have tornados ,it must be very scary stuff. Sending best wishes to all affected and displaced from their homes . Hoping Victoria avoids bushfire this season too.

A useless effort to try to placate some imaginary god. If you really want to help, do something useful! Vacuous blessings have been done ad nauseam. But we do now all think you're a wonderful human being for doing this.....

No hurricanes here, but we do have the occasional cyclone in Australia. None in my area but up north.

Yes agree we are lucky in Australia.

We should all consent to politicians having a sabbatical trip to form a barrier to areas that are about to be hit by hurricanes, volcanic eruptions, earthquakes and any other natural disasters, with only a bottle of listerine to sweeten the smell of bullshit coming out of their mouth as they get hit by nature.Edited 11-Oct-24 09:14am

That is nature for you! Just be thankful our, and all other, politicians can't control it! Just think of the appalling disaster that would really be!Edited 11-Oct-24 08:53am

Thankful that we don’t get hurricanes, twisters or cyclones in Australia. Our prayers go out to Florida residents.

I agree

My heart goes out to all those who have experienced Hurricane's it would be absolutely devastating to go through something like that.

ty,hi JANN R

I agree with you boy blunder I live in country victoria and we are so lucky to live in this part of Australia I also send my blessings to those in the ifected areas

hi ty boy blunder

Nature at its most terrifying and destructive. I am hoping and praying for no loss of life.

i am currently 30 kilometres south of the equator in between Borneo and New Guinea. Due to the location being close to the equator and the subsequent Coreolis Effect we do not get cyclones or hurricanes here. Sadly we do get tsuamis, with the most recent one (6 years ago) killing 5,000 people about 40 kilometres from here.Edited 11-Oct-24 08:09am

I send well-wishes from Sydney, Australia - keep safe, folks! Great discussion of the day, boy blunder!

The Lake" - Sunday 19th December 1999 From the Pen of MariaB The frozen waters on the lake Allows you to upon it skate Feel the breeze blowing past your ears Making you bold, conquering your fears Going faster, watching the world spin past Embedding an image that will forever last The free flowing waters of the lake Reflecting an image that is true, not fake Capturing a water colour that is there to stay And only the ripples can wash it away The birds flying overhead change the scenery Adding a colourful plumage to all that greenery The murky waters of the flooding lake Truly endorses that nature can both give and take Rip up onto the solid riverbanks And tear down the living monuments Wash them away ..... far downstream Creating a nightmare ...... disturbing the dreamEdited 11-Oct-24 07:30am

I have many friends in US BUT they keep in touch with me re their situation.There are so many AI reports,BUT I rely on my friends with their reports and comments...Amateur radio is such a good communication tool

Jehovah's Witnesses will be there to help, not only their own, but their neighbors also. They will call in volunteers from all over the world to help supply needed food, water, clothes, toiletries, and to help rebuild homes, as well as Kingdom Halls. Jehovah has an amazing organization, and I'm so proud, and blessed to be a part of it. If only I were younger, I would be able to do more to Jehovah's Glory and Honor! ;-D

Every natural disaster is devastating for everyone involved. What about the WARS we are listening to that is human self inflicted. That is more devastating and destructive to watch and listen. Don't want to watch or listen to the news anymore. Very heart breaking.

strong winds as hurricanes are testaments of the power of nature, cycle of life given by Almighty God, to clench and renew, and to test our faith, yes human suffer because of it. The question is "Do we have the strength and the understanding to cope ?

Thoughts for everyone involved. Fortunately we don't have hurricanes where i live, but as the world's climate changes we never know.

Scary stuff!

Prayers for all

My prayers are sent over to Hurricane Helene the people affected by this tragic storm. It is so sad.

I USE TO LIVE IN TAMPA AND LAKELAND FLA,PRAYERS GO OUT TO ALL THAT HAVE BEEN AFFECTED...

My heart goes to the people experiencing the effects of the hurricanes. It is devastating!

My sister in law and family live in Florida but her area was spared any damage due to hurricanes Thankful this morning.

Yes, here in Perth we had an awesome day. Love, prayers and blessings to those in Florida and surrounding areas.

Hubby and I are blessed and highly favoured by our loving and living God!

Hi boy blunder - cool sentiment! Furthermore, the national hurricane center is predicting a brutal hurricane season this year - Florida is not where you 'wanted' to be - this hurricane season!Edited 11-Oct-24 01:36am

We're lucky here in Vancouver, Canada too. No extreme weather events here except for the odd heat wave which doesn't bother me, or the occasional storm with winds that don't exceed 100kph

Yes blessings to all

American people are so stupid. They built a lot of expensive properties right on the coast and they should know the history of the place. Why aren't they building more hurricane proof properties? They have the knowledge to do so. They have a lot of wealthy people who live in Florida so there's no excuse. Why does the media focus so much on those wealthy areas when there are many poorer folk in much less wealthy countries that do not get the same attention as they do. Bangladesh, Phillipines, south pacific, etc. But the yankies expect the rest of the world to care. Why does the Australian media carrying on about every American tragedy? .What rubbish!

Very, very sad , agree.

I'm in Ontario ,Canada and sun's out here too! Florida is an awful place for storms! The south is always having strange weather conditions.. same as Japan always having earth quakes! That would be terrifying

Very tragic 😞

Much is being revealed in all of this tragedy.

Well the media love to make everything worse than it seems. They were saying thousands or hundreds could be killed, but not many casualties have occurred at all. Florida is prone to those conditions because they are sub-tropical. It happens in other places like that around the world. It's those who own property, businesses, and insurance companies who will be fighting some financial losses.

Very tragic.

What a stupid daily discussion! Poorly written and there's no need to use swear words. Obviously, you aren't too articulate with words. Yet, rewardia approved this?😬

Thanks boy blunder. I'm in Florida, but wasn't in the path of the hurricanes.

They've run out of petrol for people evacuating too. Not sure where most of them are stranded, There's probably thousands of vehicles sitting waiting now.

AND THIS IS PICKED OVR DECENT NON SWEARING UNBELIEVABLE
