This week we reached out to our old neighbors in Melbourne Florida to see how they faired with the recent hurricane rainfall. We lived through 3 hurricanes in a five year period while living there.
If I had to, I could go back and name a hundred reasons for each day (I'm 64) that I am proud of America, not just once in awhile:
My wife reminded me that this is our normal month for the most rainfall and after all we had received earlier this spring, I had forgotten that fact. Watching those wet Iowa folks helping each other out in the flooded streets of their towns reminded me of how great American neighbors really … (2 comments)
Guess what? It is snowing again!!! This winter weather just doesn't want to end. Conway has officially had 136 inches of snow this year and has broken all previous records. I think in Tamworth and Sandwich we have had more than that as some of these storms have been more coastal … (8 comments)
Here in Naples and other parts of Southwestern Florida annual flooding is an unavoidable disaster. The pleasures of living near an ocean or on a beach are obviously not without their risks, and can be considerable. However, what you may not know is that inland living can be just as risky.

I just found this site on the internet. I think it could be useful for homeowners, especially in Florida and the south where our weather can sometimes be severe.
Have you been watching the news lately? Floods all around the Bound Brook Area, devastation hit all parts of New Jersey, Ogdensburg and surrounding area's received over 8" of rain in a 36 hour period of time!
This year has been a very different year here in Hawaii for real estate as well as for the weather. While the real estate market set new records this year by leveling off or decreasing in price and sales, the weather is also making it's own records this year. It's been raining here a … (7 comments)
South Florida lead home insurance rates in the State of Florida. The average rate for a home in Florida is about $2500 compared to almost $4500 in Broward County alone. They say that if we go one more year without a storm that will go far to help lower or slow … (0 comments)
One of the most important things that you can do before a flood for the financial protection of your home and family is to purchase a flood insurance policy. 
Yes we all will remember Hurricane Katrina this week. Still devastated, the Gulf Coast will be rebuilding (for years) not only the buildings and memories but the broken hearts of a place that they called home. Will another oce come soon? Who knows? Do people think that all beach property is now … (2 comments)
