Number Of Damaged Homes Increasing As Cleanup Begins In Cape Coral

Keith Luedke’s home is a mess following Saturday’s EF2 tornado that caused more than $6 million in damage throughout Cape Coral. His bathroom is destroyed, there’s shattered glass everywhere, and the roof collapsed. “They’re going to be demolition inside the house for certain things, the ceilings, the walls,” said Luedke, “so right now, we’re in a hotel downtown.” Luedke is just one of hundreds in southwest Cape Coral on the long road to recovery. On Tuesday, insurance adjusters were out on the streets, talking to homeowners, while firefighters walked from house to house to check up on residents.
