8 Possible Sinkholes open near Ocala !!!Evacuations
Engineers surveyed the area with ground-penetrating radar, but have not yet determined if they're sinkholes.

It's not known when residents will be able to return home.

"I’m a little nervous," said Stacy Guzman, who lives in the complex.

City officials say they will monitor the area over night and engineers will return to run tests on the area.

this was on the 16th

For the second time in as many weeks a North Central Florida property owner is asking for help that county workers say they legally can't give.
This time, a large sinkhole has one rural family looking for a solution.

Re: 8 Possible Sinkholes open near Ocala !!!Evacuations
oh yeah, central florida is sinkhole central.
this happens every year, especially after large storms.
its part and parcel of living here.
the ground can just open up underneath you at any moment.

just a bit south of Ocala is THE VILLAGES, called the largest retirement community in the country if im not mistaken.
they are saturated with sinkholes opening up, its really bad there.
we dont even hear of half of them....

Lived there...shitty developers! All their 'manmade' lakes in the middle of hastily built subdivisions ALWAYS pop after a long dry spell (which they just had) followed by heavy rains. The weight change in the RETENTION PONDS break through the underground caverns. Happens all the time.

water level of the lake is super low, as all the water has found its way to underground channels which super saturate the ground beneath the grass, eventually causing it to liquify into the earths

tips on insurance for sinkholes...
[link to www.insidethebubble.co (secure)]

Other companies are going to what is called “catastrophic ground collapse” instead of sinkhole coverage – and the bugaboo is that the home has to really be affected for coverage to kick in – companies will tell folks that it covers sinkholes, and it does to some degree, but of course it’s written by insurance companies to give them a whole lot more leeway to say no.

Thats what you get for building on limestone...

You can pretty much scuba dive from Tampa to Ocala underground...

Hate to tell you but they know what it is!!!!

The underground aquifers are being lowered by the volume of drinking water that is being pumped up out of them!!!

As this displaces and is being refilled by rain water it dissolves the limestone under foot, and you get sinkholes.

Looks like that was developed by humans when building the complex. Water seeps into the ground and loosens man made Terra.
