You guys realize sandysurvivor isnt a real "ny" poster and is just trolling the dumbasses? Its amazing that a generation who grew up on the interwebs cant pick up on this stuff lol

What's amazing is you guys didn't deal with it before it turned the discussions into complete garbage.

Anyone hear from Simon Brewer and Juston Drake?  They were both on Twitter talking about chasing in Mexico Beach, but nothing since it got real nasty.   I guess there isn't much info flowing yet, however.

I've made that drive before between Panama City and Port St. Joe and your perception is correct.  There's a reason that people like Josh didn't go over there- lack of options.

Bad news is that between the live site map showing the chasers, tweets from other chasers who said they were in Mexico City, and Jeff Piotrowski's live feed it seems that there were a lot of chasers in major risk areas between the two.   Jeff claimed to have been down there but barely made it out before storm surge and fallen trees blocked the way - and that was a bit before it got REALLY bad.

Hope others made it out or found places that held.

That looks like the place where the car ended up drifting around.

 

Such a bad spot.   When I watched them make the decision to drive over the bridge near Port St. Joe and head that way I couldn't believe it.   I had watch when they traveled through to Port St. Joe earlier in the feed and it was clear that the whole are was super low.   More importantly the only road to get out was basically on the coast.    

It's bad.  They are on the SE side of Mexico Beach and the water has trapped them near the shore line and the best option they seem to have is a wooden house on pilings.
