So a family with SIX small children stayed in beach home during hurricane! Lucky but questionable sanity.

[sherylclements]

Knowingly, putting yourself in danger is one thing. Putting your children in danger is unforgivable.

[codecaine]

Why do you need a lesson first going there on vacation knowing a hurricane is coming with children there also. smh

[Supremewin]

If you have to build your house on 10 ft to 20 ft Stills then you should not be living there😊

[usgary]

All this dramatic reporting! OF COURSE staying that close to the water during a hurricane is a bad idea. OF COURSE things are going to be destroyed. They report as if this is so uncommon and catastrophic. OF COURSE it is! So glad no one was hurt AND learn NOT to do that again.

Don't know why people think a beach house is safe when a hurricane is coming...

[brianbates]

OMG! That would be the last place I'd be with a hurricane coming in. To stay there was insane!

[nb]

Well don't live there. It's not like this hasn't happened before

[joymcdaniel]

I don’t feel sorry for these people they build right on the waters edge!!! now they’re gonna want the government to help them out

[renajennings]

Could you imagine what Beryl did to those small caribbean islands. She flattened them😢

[Luvstunes]

There has to be some construction common sense. Those homes are built right down into the sea. smh.

You should have your parent license revoked. Put your kids thru that right on the beach. You really should b put in jail for child endangerment. Pitiful parenting.

There are no "iconic" homes in Surfside. The only "iconic" home ever built in Surfside was the octagon house, and that got blown away years ago, along with the Surfside pier.

Sure hope the "iconic" restaurant Red Snapper Inn will be back up and running again someday.

For me the climate is changing now i think its not safe anymore to builds a house close to the ocean its not just this country the water is rising either fire or flooding or turnado

[Floridastoughestswimmer]

I knew hurricane buryl was going to happen over 2 weeks ago and nobody listened

[nurseratched]

Yes, I must say living in Houston is a risk..every hurricane 🌀 season you have to cross 🤞🏿 your fingers and toes that we don't get hit 🎯...While we still wait for power to be restored..I thank God every one is ok

[michelemichele]

i dont get why people would buy and live in a home that close to the water? i mean every single hurricane season you have to be ready to run? always have to be ready to rebuild. it just seems dumb.

[Jojojo]

Center Point Energy is never ready for the storms. Now a lot of people are suffering in the heat

Mother Nature will humble you and make you rethink your life choices!

Hurricanes are nothing new on the coast of many states and yet people still build homes on the coast.
