They gave Texas Billions of Dollars for Hurricane Harvey so I can't see them giving to One State and not the other. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You must keep track of your cost basis--amount you paid ( or inherited step up value) and the cost of capital improvements--and depreciation claimed in prior years if any. Good luck!

The bad part is the ones that choose to stay, if they need any kind of assistance the First Responders won't be able to help them until after the Storm has died down enough to be safe to make any Rescue Attempts.

Problem is that Miami is only about 3 feet above sea level, flooding scares me, cause i have a collection of expensive guns. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Houston Texas had 15 Feet or more of Water from Hurricane Harvey then you can tell what Miami is going to look like in the coming days with Hurricane Irma. Winds get so strong it even snaps off the Cellphone Towers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SPYING 1 Posted September 8, 2017 Share Posted September 8, 2017 http://vidmax.com/video/162557-UNREAL-FOOTAGE-Almost-200-Mile-Per-Hour-Winds-Batter-Puerto-Rico-with-Trees-around-like-Straws More than 1 million residents in Puerto Rico are without power Thursday as Hurricane Irma bares down on the U.S. territory, former Governor Alejandro Garcia Padilla told CNBC Thursday. The category 5 storm has been recorded to have sustained winds above 180 miles per hour, making it the most powerful Atlantic Ocean hurricane ever recorded. The storm has already killed at least 10 people in the Caribbean, according to the Weather Channel and is expected to make landfall in Florida this weekend. In addition to the loss of power, about 50,000 Puerto Rico residents are without water. Officials warned that residents could be without power for up to six months following the storm as Puerto Rico's crumbling infrastructure remains ill-equipped to deal with a hurricane of this severity.
