Recovery? Most of the vehicles are total loses. It will be another reason for insurance companies to bail on FL.

Low lands in Florida. You will be experiencing this frequently. Along with rising seas. But hey, you don’t believe in that sort of stuff

[ahderme]

Jesus Christ called people everywhere to repent, so if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe with all your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved and inherit the kingdom of heaven and eternal life. To this, people would accept Jesus Christ in life in their hearts and told other people how good he is, how he saves, heals and frees and gives eternal life for free 19

The problem is Florida nobody knows when you have a house the insurance does not answer your flood and that’s fraud
