system is that the backlash, the bank, i log and 2nd round is arguably worth the some areas in the 1st week out or to read . when you get 14170 kilometers per hour with the 1st batch, then we got the i, the i was sort of the messy id was filed. so there was some light drizzle did. bitter wind in there. and then the backlash has been markedly more intense in my mind. we've seen a lesser years more fresh water flooding where i am right now. now early rod naples farther to the south on shore when they got the nit flooding from the storm church, an hundreds of people were left trapped on the rooftop looking for help. matthew, tell us this and governor desantis is actually saying that the storm surge has actually likely peaked. yeah. are they coming down to the low tide? go that night? brought a midnight and ultimately the wind has to be on shore to get
