As hurricane Florence comes to a close here in coastal North Carolina I have been feeling a lot more...happy in my heart. Like...I’m valuing things a lot more. Cause in the past 48 hours I have lost nothing. My house is fine, my animals are fine, and my mom and I are fine. But, many of my friends have lost everything.
I just feel like....I feel like I’m valuing things a lot more. Like...my anxiety doesn’t seem as huge as it was before, big problems I had before the storm seem minuscule....is that weird???

No, it's not weird. You are looking around your and seeing what to be grateful for. It was always there but it's in perspective now that you see what others lost. It's awful all the loss. So far the news says 4 people died. A young mother with an infant. An older woman had a heart attack and a man that went to check on his dogs. It is awful.
Wonderful news; you are very fortunate! Hurricane Harvey dumped >51" rain in Houston and southeast Texas August 2017. Many residents, including us, are still displaced. We are thinking and praying for everyone affected by Hurricane Florence.
Sounds like your mind has turned to gratitude rather than fear.
