The biggest mistake you can make when it comes to preparing for a hurricane or hurricane season is not being ready financially.

The National Hurricane Center (NHC) has taken it up a notch in the wake of the completely insane seasons of the past 6 years. New to the area? Not sure what we are talking about? Here is a recap...

JACKSONVILLE BEACH, Fla. – Jacksonville Beach’s most iconic and visited landmark is closer to reopening, but it’s a slow, painstaking process that’s expected to take at least another year and a half. Construction has resumed on the Jacksonville Beach Fishier Pier, which sustained extensive damage and lost a quarter of its length during Hurricanes Matthew and Irma in 2016 and 2017, respectively. RELATED: Why did construction on Jacksonville Beach Pier stop? | Jacksonville Beach Pier construction to start in fall | Rebuilding of Jacksonville Beach Pier set to begin in NovemberThe new parts of the pier are supposed to be bigger and more durable, which is no small feat, according to the contractors, who gave News4Jax a tour of their progress. While the pier project is funded by Jacksonville taxpayers, an insurance policy is helping defray some of the cost.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – Coastal and tidal waterways really have seen the worst of it with the intracoastal as flooded as we have seen without a hurricane. High tide flooding will fade but only slowly with some areas likely to still flood for the next week. Biggest tides were on Sunday with Saturday, Monday and Tuesday a very close second, third and fourth. Highest winds were on Monday, with many locations seeing wind gusts to 40 mph. The highest gust was on Saturday with a peak gust of 49 mph at Marineland.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. Isaias has weakened considerably and is probably no longer a hurricane, but as a comparison to what the State of Florida has seen, Michael (Cat 5, Mexico Beach, 2018), Irma (Cat 4, Entire State, 2017) and Matthew (Cat 3, East Coast, 2016) Isaias has always been more bark than reality. Hopefully this will continue. Still anticipated to remain on the expected track, Isaias may slow down and drift a little left of the current National Hurricane Center track, that is just east of the State. That track was based on maintaining hurricane status. Even as a strong tropical storm, the entire East Coast of the State of Florida need to alert to regeneration of heavy flooding rains, especially right along the coast.

JACKSONVILLE BEACH, Fla. – With eyes around the world on Jacksonville’s beaches, some of the first to open amid the COVID-19 pandemic, many are noticing the pier rebuilding project is on pause. The Jacksonville Beach Fishing Pier, which was damaged by Hurricanes Matthew and Irma in 2016 and 2017, respectively, is part of a nearly $10 million project to repair and rebuild the last 300 feet of the pier that was ripped off by the powerful storms. It’s the focal point of Jacksonville Beach, but construction crews haven’t made progress on the pier in more than a month. The Sky4 helicopter flew over the pier Tuesday showing cranes and construction equipment sitting idle, a temporary structure half-built next to the pier. It’s completely closed for the remainder of the construction project.

What was supposed to be a nice family photo shoot quickly went south when a toddler hilariously made a run for a nearby pond. The Mizzles family were just wrapping a photo shoot in Texas with their three children, and parents Matthew and Haleigh wanted to take some shots of just the two of them. I had a blast photographing this family, even though 2 out of the 5 members got drenched in nasty pond water. She was able to capture dad knee-deep in the dirty pond while he carried Lincoln out.

GREEN COVE SPRINGS, Fla. - If you live in Clay County, you might have to pay a new annual fee to improve drainage and runoff issues. Flooding remains a major problem in parts of Clay County after Hurricanes Matthew and Irma, and the Board of County Commissioners is looking at creating a stormwater fee for property owners in the unincorporated areas of the county. If implemented, an additional $60 would appear on your next annual tax bill. The new stormwater tax would bring nearly $5 million to the county to address problems with runoff and drainage. The fifth-generation Clay County resident said the stated "benefits" of the drafted stormwater ordinance would only impact certain areas.
