Insurance Rates

This is a national geographic map I saw last week. This is the worst case senario and will take a long time.

 

This twitter account has some pretty cool future concepts of cities. Cool and depressing at the same time.

Though fosil fuel industry types don't want to say that it is happening. Insurance companies have seen it for quite a while. They have been adjusting their rates to account for bigger payouts. Insurance companies are not likely to get caught with theri pants down on a plan. You decided to move into the bullseye. Enjoy the weather but you will be made to pay for it.

 

Insurance companies have already been caught with their pants down, and they bailed out of florida, after hurricane Charlie in 2006, Allstate was the culprit, you go through central florida neighborhoods and to this day and you still see abonded homes and tattered blue tarps..

 

What adjustment of rates? I have a clause, I have a 500 deductible, BUT if a named storm causes the damage, it escalates to 4000.00.

 

Funny, you see the weather channel now naming winter storms, all for the Insurance Companies.

And they push up your premiums. So how much money did they keep and not pay out but the premiums were paid. That was not a huricane. That was a flood. They love collecting and not paying.

I agree, Ive paid premiums for 34 years now, and have had 1 claim in the 90's for 3100, when a water pipe burst when we wernt home..

 

And the east coast of Fl hasnt taken a direct hit in over 30 years, yes Im in the bullseye but I feel safe

That map shows the Caribbean Islands still there, they would go a hell of alot quicker then Fla would.

not all of them

plus

the elevation on most of those islands are WAY higher than any part in florida

 

as far as those cranes go cravn

they're the ones with the red tip on there head right?

don't get caught feeding them

it's a huge fine.

 

one last note

[cravnravn]

Why not? my mom feeds them daily, peanuts..and then I take my dog over there and let him loose to chase them :>)

[oldcrow]

I was feeding them one day

they were like 3 feet from me

then some lady came up and told me that it was against the law

 

I too have seen where people put food out in their yards for them

[cravnravn]

The highest point of elevation in Florida is 345ft: Britton Hill, Northern Florida Highlands. The highest point in Central Florida is the Brooksville Ridge:

However, there are islands in the Caribbean that have mountains topping 10,000ft

I hope Florida has a good sump pump.

They do. It's called a sinkhole.

[cravnravn]

No worries here, as a matter of fact nobody else on the fl east coast is worried, they built a Joe's Crab Shack in Daytona literally in the ocean, and it's huge 3 stories

Does it have a battery back up or one of those water powered backups?

[cravnravn]

Sinkholes are on the west side of the state..Im more worried a gator in my lake then I am of a sinkhole or a hurricane

[papasmurfbell]

The whole syaye is made of I think limestone. It is porous and it erodes away. It doesn't matter which side of the state you live on. Who cares that they built a place that the ocean will swallow? The US rebuilt NO. It will still be taken by the gulf.

 

Crav have you considered being a GOP canidate for congress. You have such a great handle of science. You are already qualified.

holy cow!!

cravn the sinkholes donot live in the west side of the state.

 

and

 

papa

you're right it's nuutin but limestone

 

they make lovely golf courses tho

[cravnravn]

They most certainly do, look it up west of i4 are the majority of the sink holes

[papasmurfbell]

Just because the most happen now doesn't mean it will continue that way.

[cravnravn]

And the east coast hasn't been hot in decades with a hurricane

Edited November 18, 2013 by cravnravn

[papasmurfbell]

So I guess because it had been so long since NO was hit by a huricane one can't hit it in the future. MD hadn't been hit for several yrs and I guess they didn't get hit hard last yr.

[cravnravn]

Did you not see the pict I posted , I'm not at all worried about a hurricane or sinkhole, I only worry when it falls below 70

The only pic I see is of a peir.

 

Looking at Dee's pic it looks like the sinkhole likelihood is mix and matched everywhere. And If I am an insurance company I am saying the whole place is prone and I am billing as such.
