This happens a lot, why did early settlers decide to stay in such places?

We had a small storm early this year, average of 75mph. Shit was scary, the roofing of our neighbors folded half open and pulled a part of our roofing as well. Not something I could endure every year like you guys do with even higher wind speeds

75? shiiiii. that's like a strong breeze here. i've encountered 165 - 175 mph speeds (andrew). THAT was scary af! you can hear the storm trying to rip the roof off.

Florida always seems like such a great and fucking awful place to live. The beaches must be killer in the summer. But all the hurricanes, the gators and snakes, and hurricanes makes me never even consider it.

actually, the summers suck! it's too fucking hot and the weather is bi-polar (sunny one hour; thunder and lightning the next; then repeat). the humidity is horrible. 

 

the winters are amazing here! the water is a bit cold, but nothing you can't get used to after 5 minutes. aside from 5 or 6 days, where it's somewhat freezing, the weather is cool, dry, and sunny. ironically, i lose weight without trying because i'm so active from november to march.

eh, it's all good man. worst case scenario, i'll stay at the tv station i work at. it's cat 5 proof, with 2 monster generators. i moved back into a condo, so i'm too worried about my place. if it gets destroyed, i have insurance.

Hurricanes as strong as Xbox 2020 line up would be a blessing right nao.

I hope the beaches are clean. We don’t need more plastic in our oceans

Those are the biggest reasons?

 

Hurricanes are overrated and I've never seen a snake or gator that wasn't in captivity

i've seen snakes and gators in the pines area. but yeah, while hurricanes suck, they aren't too dangerous if you know how to prep (or have a plan where to go if you are in the eye). 

[kaz 2,439]

lol gators, snakes and tornados. you survive the monthly tonardo blast assault and then get fucked by a flying gator. hell on earth, right after the place with mutant spiders

Or luck. I think the last really really bad hurricane in this area was Andrew in 93. After that there have been others that caused flooding, outages and raised sidewalks cause of the trees, but nothing close to what happened to homestead.

Ahh good, @Voidler is here to tell us about the real threats of nature, not these 'Gators and Pythons people left in the glades once they couldn't fit them in a terrarium any longer.
