The death toll has risen to 27 while the hunt for resumption in Florida condo | Weather News

The remains of the house were destroyed overnight after rescuers searched the previously unsafe area of ​​the garbage heap.

Three more bodies were found in the rubble of a collapsed condom in Surfside, Florida, on Monday, bringing the total number of people confirmed to be 27, after the remaining parts were destroyed overnight.

The bodies were found when the search and rescue operation resumed following this tearing down the remaining part of the Champlain Towers South complex at Surfside. The number of missing people reached 118, officials said.

“Demolishing an entire house is a painful decision and destruction was not an idea I made lightly,” said Miami-Dade County Mayor Daniella Levine Cava.

“Proper demolition was necessary to expand our hunting grounds, in fact, we could not continue without demolishing the building,” Cava told a news conference on Monday.

At 10:30 pm on Sunday (2:30 GMT Monday), an explosion ripped through a 12-story house that collapsed on June 24.

A video of what he was able to show was seen falling and dropping smoke and dust. Using a technique called “force-building”, workers use small arms and rely on gravity to demolish the building.

The fire department unintentionally inspected the house and the animals, used temperature drones to detect body temperature and set traps for live animals on the ground, the mayor said.

“We did our best to do everything we could, at great risk to the first responders to ensure that all the animals that were a loving family, no one was left in the house,” he said.

Search and rescue operations had been completed suspension at the time of the crash but the experiments resumed within 15 minutes and looked at the stone sites that the rescuers could not have explored in the past due to the danger of the building, Cava told reporters.

As of Monday morning, Tropical Storm Elsa was approaching Cuba with strong winds blowing around 100km / h (60mph) and set around the country en route to Florida. It moved northwest at 22km / h (14mph), said the Meteorological Institute in Cuba.

The storm is expected to reach west Florida north of the city of Tampa Tuesday or Wednesday, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis said.

The National Weather Service said that as the storm moves westward, Miami-Dade will experience heavy rain and thunderstorms and occasional tornadoes and torrential downpours and floods.

Prior to the devastation, residents of nearby homes were told not to move out but were instructed to stay indoors and block the air from dust.

Investigators could not confirm this what caused it difficult for the 40-year-old Surfside to fall. The 2018 engineering report found flaws that are worth questioning that include a major jury review.

The tragedy prompted a quick inspection of some buildings. Citizens of Crestview Towers in North Miami Beach, were told on Friday to leave when engineers discovered serious concrete and electrical problems.
