Rescue operations were still ongoing, especially on the Gulf Coast of Florida, which was hit hardest by Hurricane Ian in the United States.
“People think they have lost everything, but you haven’t lost everything if you haven’t lost yourself,” he said.
The Federal Emergency Management Agency, FEMA, has prepared its largest search-and-rescue operation in the wake of Hurricane Ian’s destruction in Florida. “We worry a lot about the direct impacts from the storm itself as it is making landfall, but we see so many more injuries and sometimes more fatalities after the storm,” Criswell said. “People need to stay vigilant right now. Standing water brings with it all kinds of hazards — it has debris, it could have power lines.”
“My home is close to underwater,” Madlang said. “Right now, I’m just going to sandbag as much as I can and hope and pray.” “The Mad Hatter Restaurant, unfortunately, is out at sea right now,” the Facebook page reads. “The best news from this devastating scene is that there is still land for us to rebuild.”
