Oh man poor people, i hope everyone is fine😢
You just never know what mother nature has planned next... it will be always stronger than us

[rockerm]

Those tornados were relentless. Those poor people 😢

[avengingcarma]

Great job Tom reporting the damage and respecting the victims and showing compassion and empathy😢

[TRDjuli]

Standing by a window in a tornado is outrageous

[chaz]

Can we stop showing a stadium which can afford to rebuild and show the people

[adriancamano]

My prayers are with you and i got through fires in California i have empathy don't panic

[bocca]

Don't forget North Carolina and East Tennessee

Year after year being devastated and they keep rebuilding on a sand bar 2 feet above sea

WE have a place in Naples FL and with insurance rates out of sight and more hurricanes increasing in size and frequency, we will be leaving for good if this home gets damaged. Just not worth worrying about it anymore.

I am speechless when I see all the damage. Florida had just had Helene rip through, now Milton! I pray no more hurricanes, tornadoes, or any bad weather to visit Florida. I am sending my prayers and strength to the people of Florida from Queensland Australia. ❤

They need to turn Florida into a National Park, this can't continue year after year, so sad

[MyLoganTreks]

It's funny that some people call immigrants "murderers and rapists", yet after every hurricane here in Florida that I've experienced everyone is glad to see a Juan show up and help with rebuilding their homes after hurricanes. Let this sink in, take all the time you need, I'm not buying what these politicians are selling, facts are climate change is real.

Heartbreaking. So sorry that they are going through this.

I lived on a barrier island & been through many hurricanes but after a devestating hurricane - I moved! The stress alone of going through a hurricane and the aftermath is just too much - financialy and emotionally 😐

17:01 How many times do you rebuild your house in the exact same spot before you realize it's a bad idea? Personally, I'd have to rebuild my house 37 times before I learned my lesson.

[Chainyanker]

$100+ billion in damage is my guess. What a horrendous mess, poor people having to deal with this disaster.

[hermburgler]

You'd think a crane company could retract a crane in the days it had fore warning

[TheSpiritgurl]

On the west coast, unbelievable hurricane & tornadoes! Devastating for many people :( this was HUGE. We are safe though, many are not. The aftermath is the worst I have ever seen. The sounds of the winds at night with no power was horrendous! Thank you for all the prayers. Praying for those that had it worse...😔 I have never seen anything like this before & never want to again.

The East Coast was NOT caught off guard, we had plenty of notice, they literally evacuated the coast 36 hours before it got bad.

As an australian, I have to ask whether Florida may become uninhabitable?
