StephanieHOST
So the Trop, um, the Tropicana Field, that stadium was, uh, very damaged two years ago.

We had two back-to-back hurricanes, Hurricane Milton and Hurricane Helene, but Hurricane Milton really did a number on the Trop.
StephanieHOST

Garrett GrecoHOST
And so was this house already flooded when you bought it?
Jeff TrosclairGUEST
Yes, but not for Milton.
Jeff TrosclairGUEST
It was a storm before.
Jeff TrosclairGUEST
It was the 2023 storms, I think.
8 MINS LATER
Garrett GrecoHOST
So 2023, you're doing a couple of these, but it's only three years later, and you've done over 100 all over the state, and it sounds like, what, 80 or so just in this region at least.
Garrett GrecoHOST
Yeah, that's about right, yeah.
Garrett GrecoHOST
So did all of it start to waterfall after the hurricane in Milton in 2024? Is that where the calls really started to amplify? Yeah,
Jeff TrosclairGUEST
I mean, we went from getting, you know, call it, five or six inquiries a week to like 3000 a day,
Matt NelsonHOST
yeahSo Trooper inspired a law.
Matt NelsonHOST
Uh, Trooper was left, um, during Hurricane Milton.
Matt NelsonHOST
I believe that was 2024.
Lauren RiihimakiGUEST
Yeah.
Matt NelsonHOST
So this was, uh, in October of 2024.
Matt NelsonHOST
Uh, he was rescued from knee-deep water during Hurricane Milton.
Matt NelsonHOST
He had been tied to a fence post and abandoned by his previous owners.
Matt NelsonHOST
We don't say abandoned lightly on this show.
Skye LeBronHOST
Both men have resigned from their jobs.

Come November's election, St. Petersburg voters can either approve or deny a $600 million bond for the city to speed up its work in safeguarding two wastewater treatment plants that had to stop operating after damage from Hurricane Milton.
Skye LeBronHOST
Claude Tankersley is St. Pete's public works administrator.
Skye LeBronHOST
He says this is how they can quickly prevent another facility shutdown when there's flooding.
Lance CutsenGUEST
So and here we are on the eve of a major hurricane in Florida.
Lance CutsenGUEST
So I do wish everyone the best for Milton.
Lance CutsenGUEST
But on that note, I'm a Floridian myself, and I'm out here hiding in Houston away from the storm today.
Lance CutsenGUEST
Stay safe, everybody.
Dana McKayHOST
Yeah.
Dana McKayHOST
One of my friends, her roof was damaged during Hurricane Milton and she filed a claim and it took them so long to go through that whole process that she had a leaky roof the whole time.
Dana McKayHOST
And it ended up doing even more damage because they didn't just come out and fix it.
Ryan GormanHOST
And this is an issue.
Nadeen YanesGUEST
So Hurricane Helene, 32% of the claims still unpaid.
Nadeen YanesGUEST
Hurricane Milton, 34% still unpaid with no payment at all.
Nadeen YanesGUEST
Now Helene was a flood event.
Nadeen YanesGUEST
So there's a lot of nuance to it.
Grant PosnerHOST
Let me see the last time that we had one.
Grant PosnerHOST
The last time that we had a real reverse 911 was for Hurricane Milton and Hurricane Helene when they came through.
Grant PosnerHOST
We just had another one for dengue fever.
Grant PosnerHOST
Dengue alert.

Last year, they played their home games at Steinbrenner Field, the Yankee Spring Training Home, after Hurricane Milton ripped the roof off of Tropicana Field in 2024.
BrianHOST
Nearly 18 months after the natural disaster, the Rays returned home.
BrianHOST
They've been richer for it.

Hurricane Milton's strength and magnitude have left veteran meteorologists in shock, including John Morales of Miami.
speaker_4SOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
Take a look.
John MoralesSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
Just an incredible, incredible, incredible hurricane.
Johanna WagstaffeHOST
That's when a storm undergoes rapid intensification, what meteorologists like me and John call bombogenesis.
Johanna WagstaffeHOST
That tweaked something for John.
Johanna WagstaffeHOST
As Milton barreled towards Florida, he knew how bad it would be.
John MoralesSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
Milton was just absolutely exploding in intensity.
