IAN
STATUS: 2 Dec 2022
In daily (vacation) life in Naples, one is very rarely confronted with the issue of IAN. A real 'upset' for the German Naples visitors is more and more the behavior of the German Lufthansa. Considering the unbroken stream of vacationers from Europe, the rebookings and flight cancellations are not appropriate and cause great annoyance and frustration.

The author opened the beach season today with his wife and parked on 11th Avenue South. One of the beach umbrellas is his. A sign warns only about isolated debris in the water, but that doesn't stop many people from swimming.
STATUS: 09 Nov 2022
As of today, the first third of the NAPLES PIERS is open again. The restrooms to the left and right of the PIER entrance are also open. You can walk down the stairs from the front part of the PIER to the beach.

The author drove down the entire Gulfshore Boulevard (including Venetian Village) today. On the side of the road, you can only find a pile of debris in front of each house about every mile. Lowder Milk Park and also the pier are still closed, but all other beach accesses at the avenues are open. Some people are already bathing in the sea again, although signs still warn of bacteria in the water.

At 11th Avenue South the beach was open (see picture) and so were the beach accesses at the other avenues - only a sign says that swimming is still prohibited. The pier and Lowder Milk Park remain closed. The piles of debris along the roadsides are continuously being cleared by FEMA. They make quick progress.

Situation report by the author of this website: Coming from the HOME DEPOT, we drove on the DAVIS BLVD towards downtown today. From the ocean the water was said to have come up to the level of OAK FARMS and lo and behold the store was closed. Then continued the stretch up US41 past TIN CITY looks the same as always. No visible damage, although the water was a foot high here. Then into FIFTH AVE SOUTH: Everything cleaned up, felt all restaurants are open, only the stores have empty windows and are of course closed. Then turned right into GULFSHORE BLVD heading north: Here it looks bad. The smaller, flat and old houses have been totally 'washed out'; all furniture and appliances lie broken on the roadside. In the more expensive, newer and higher houses, it doesn't look quite as bad. All lawns and streets are covered by a film of sand. Then we got off at LOWDERMILK PARK (beach) and walked through the barrier to the water's edge. Wonderfully clean sand and not a soul as far as the eye could see. BUT... the view of the wooden buildings with kiosk, showers and toilet offers a picture of horror. It looks like after a bomb attack. Repair is obviously unthinkable due to lack of substance - demolition and new construction seems to be the only option. I think the first step is to clean up the parking lot and level the access to the beach so the public can get back to it. Then we continued north going on CRAYTON; the same picture there, too - a mountain of broken furniture in front of every other house. Finally, at the WATERSIDE SHOPS the world seems to be in order. Continuing the good news: Everything east of US41, including WINTERPARK and FALLING WATERS, looks like there was no hurricane.

Swimming in the Gulf is currently still prohibited due to high pollution. Walking and Sunbathing on the beach is tolerated. In Falling Waters you will have the feeling as if there was no hurricane: no damage, clean streets, open pool, electricity, water, internet and television are available. Hotel room rates have skyrocketed, and demand for rental properties in Naples is at an all-time high.

Ten days after the passage of Hurricane IAN, which severely hit Southwest Florida, a first assessment is possible as of today. The islands of PINE and SANIBEL, as well as Fort Myers Beach have been devastatingly hit; the destruction and also the number of dead are enormous. A detailed description would go beyond the scope here. The situation in NAPLES is different. Basically, it can be said that the damage caused by the storm is surprisingly low, much less than during IRMA a few years ago. More dramatic this time was the damage caused by water (from the sea and from above). Affected in NAPLES were the areas south of US41-East and west of Airport Road. Since our main residential areas, FALLING WATERS, WINTER PARK and TENNIS CLUB are at higher elevations, they remained 'dry' with no damage to buildings or roofs. After only five days, electricity and telephone were available and the pools were reopened. WhatsApp worked, but there were still problems with internet and television as of today. Even in the Flooding Zone, 5th Ave and 3rd Street, some restaurants have reopened. Only swimming in the Gulf is currently still prohibited due to high pollution.
