Jonathan George is used to hurricanes, having grown up in Sarasota and lived in Mobile during college and a few years afterward.
George said Florida residents tend to be blasé about storms because they see so many of them. But he said he and his parents didn’t take Hurricane Ian lightly.
George, who graduated from the University of Mobile in 2017 and lived in the area until a better job brought him home three or four months ago, said this storm was different. He recalled Hurricane Charley wreaking havoc in 2004 when he was 9 years old. But that storm actually could fit inside the eye of Ian.
“You know, we haven’t gotten any update, which is odd,” he said. “I actually drove my mom to work yesterday and today ‘cause she works at the hospital, and quite a bit of neighborhoods around us – I think pretty much every neighborhood in our area has power except for us.” George, who works as a sales representative for a sports company, said he has vivid memories of playing an Xbox as Hurricane Charley came in. That storm pummeled his home area. His father was a firefighter; his mother a nurse.
