At 155 mph sustained winds, this will start to disintegrate most homes. Don't forget the 175 mph gust also. At least it looks like it is tracking fast enough to travel relatively quickly over the area unlike Florence which took it's sweet time while dumping rain.

Saying the Mexico Beach area hardest hit - leaving only foundations. No words.

We have visited St. George Island a few times and stayed right there on the beach. Last I heard there were 125mph sustained winds registering between there and the Air force base northwest. That whole area is just flat marsh. I would imagine that entire area will become swampland very shortly and stay that way for awhile. Good Luck to all in the area and stay safe.

I'm still amazed that on Sunday and Monday forecasters were saying "oh this will be a mild cat 2 when it hits". How after the cluster F's of Katrina and Sandy have we not invested more money into better forecasting models and research. Or is this simply just a matter of we can never truly figure out mother nature. I really really don't want this to turn into a political commentary, I'm just honestly curious. So please let's keep it civil.

Down to a category three but 125 mph is still plenty dangerous.

As for Katrina and Sandy, I don't remember whether or not the forecasting was inaccurate. The response with Katrina was horrible and the extent of damage was just not foreseen.
Another 6 weeks of hurricane season for us and I hope we don't have another!
