Real estate expert says the area will get rebuilt, and soon enough, "You won't recognize it". Rentals by opportunistic investors will become the norm.

Before Hurricane Andrew struck SW Florida, weatherman Neil Frank, now 90, would breathlessly warn his Miami WPLG-TV audience of the devastation that tidal surges would bring with hurricanes.

Regarding boats, it's the "tidal surge" that carries boats inland. Florida sees hurricanes moving boats into fenced neighborhoods, forests, and mangrove islands while firmly attached to their trailers!
