Florida's Coast Faces Increase in Hurricane Strikes

A tiny stretch of Florida's coast has experienced an unprecedented three hurricanes in just 13 months, raising concerns about living in the Tampa Bay area. The storm impacts have prompted communities such as Perry, Steinhatchee, and Keaton Beach to vow to rebuild despite the frequent disasters. Residents are increasingly questioning the viability of staying in such hurricane-prone regions, with some drawn to the appeal of 'Old Florida' now living in what is being called 'hurricane alley.' As Hurricane Helene makes landfall, communities are urged to help victims dealing with surge waters and the loss of homes, highlighting the growing intensity and frequency of storms in the region.
