This will be upgraded to Cat 5 post analysis just like Andrew was, everything was leveled down there.

I think so too.   But if you're referring to the Mexico Beach area, it's hard to tell what's storm surge damage vs wind damage.  I guess the tree damage???  I saw fully debarked trees.

Yes it looks like major tornado damage down there, it's about as bad as a hurricane can ever get.  I was glad to hear that we didn't lose more people.
