What happens when salt water floods land/fresh water sources, wells, etc.

[Frustratedlady]

Are plants killed? Fish in creeks/rivers killed? Wells contaminated?

I understand home insurance prices are beyond reasonable in Florida. What about vehicle, boat, golf carts, etc. Is a hurricane considered God's or Mother Nature's phenomena or whatever insurance companies call what they don't want to cover. I can't imagine any insurance company can remain in business after storms like these that are happening much too often.

3. The grocery store prices will soar by tomorrow on all fruit...

even though it is just happening.

2. Be careful buying a used car now.

They get shipped all over the country and sold with no warning. Everything that can go wrong with a car will if it's been in a flood.

5. Well considering I have been using salt water

On weeds in the rocks and have to be careful because stuff won't grown back where salt is near.

That tells me lots of trees, bushes plants will be killed and they may have to bring in new soil as it is ruined from salt.

6. Good to know, as I had considered doing the same but was

afraid the salt would leach into the grass.
