are just not able to be rescued tonight. they are on their own. patrick, stay safe you and your team. kelly machi rode out the storm. i spoke with him by phone a short time ago. kelly, thank you so much for joining us. i m so sorry for what you re going through. is the storm still hitting you? yes, i m in my wcar. it s very windy. we cannot see at all. the only thing we can really see is the u.s. coast guard helicopter circling around us at the moment. they are taking out ones that are seriously injured and pregnant women. we re looking at a video you shot. we see trees ripped apart. it looks like the whole area
