My mother-in-law lives on the harbor on Holiday Isle in Destin..... She had to evac. yesterday, I wonder how the place is fairing...



The road in there is closed beyond Sandpiper. Holiday Isle gets hosed bad by these storms - every time. I expect damage similar to Dennis, and perhaps significantly worse, as there is little protection from the waves over there.

I doubt I will be able to get in there to get pictures, but might be able to get some idea from the bridge, if I can get over it (98 is washed out on Okaloosa Island; no report on whether it just got flooded or was damaged again yet)

More when I know......
