He might not have expected to have a crazy bleep like kayne west run up and support, but best believe, we are going to make america great. I tell you what, that was pretty impressive. Glor good evening. Im jeff glor in panama city, florida. I am standing in front of what was a local business here, one of the Staggering Number of buildings and houses that have been either damaged or destroyed following hurricane michael. Michael has now claimed six lives, as victims recovered here in the Florida Panhandle and in georgia and North Carolina. 11yearold sarah radney was killed by debris that ripped through the roof of her home in southwest georgia. More than 24 hours after michael made landfall on this coast, the scale of the destruction is becoming clear, and it is immense. Have a look at mexico beach, 20 miles east of here, before, and then after the storm. It took a direct hit. Homes and businesses were blasted off their foundations by winds that reached up to 155 mph, and this huge surge of seawater. To fully understand how hard this coast was hit and how widespread that damage is, it is helpful to see it from the sky. We did that today. Were going to show you that in just a moment. But re going to h Manuel Bojorquez in east pointe. About 60 miles southeast of us. Reporter a view from above mexico beach, florida, shows utter devastation. Today, fema called this tiny tourist town, ground zero. Were in the eyewall. Reporter michaels 155 mph winds decimated homes. Businesses were reduced to piles of scrap metal. Neighboring towns along the panhandle didnt fare much better. Ve meve made it to east pointe, florida. And this is the type of damage that were seeing around here. It looks like the entire corner it this building was just sheared off. This is whats left of the gym at Jenks Middle School in panama city. The roof and walls, ripped away. The hornets Volleyball Team was roheduled to play their semifinals here yesterday. Roads through the panhandles coast remain treacherous. Driving down the road here, and you can see some of the pretty big debris thats been scattered about. This semi here almost looks like ke was bent in half and thrown to the side of the road there. Block after block littered with debris, fallen trees and tangled power lines. This is something youre going to see all over the panhandle, and thats power crews moving in and out of the area to spots where theyre needed to try to get those power lines back up and restore the electricity here. Its going to be a long few days for them. Today, staff and emergency workers at Gulf Coast Regional Medical Center transported more than 100 patients to regional hospitals, starting with the most critically ill. Back in the hardesthit sections of east pointe, today was clean up day. That right there, thats the water line. Eporeporter Keith Millander has lived in this house his entire life, and hes never seen a hurricane quite like this. But he says he also wont let michael take him away from here. How do you rebuild . Time. Reporter time . Little by little . Little by little. Time. Reporter but this is home. You dont plan to leave. Oh, no. I aint going nowhere. Reporter keiths home is just down this highway, highway 98, which remains largely impassable tonight. And heres why the storm surge literally ate away entire lanes of this highway. This is what First Responders are having to get around honight, as well as people who are returning home to see what is left. Jeff . Glor manny, thanks very much. A huge challenge for those First Responders still tonight. As we flew along the coast today for as far as we could see from for ma city to mexico beach, harrowing scenes of destruction. Then, back on the ground, we thsited with some storm victims o have lost so much. It is a scale of devastation it that can truly be understood from the air. We took a helicopter ride to see the scope of the damage. Look at that house, literally blown off its foundation. This is where the eyewall passed over, and this is why youre seeing the worst of the damage. That is houses in the water. It is cars picked up and dragged or thrown hundreds of yards potentially inland. T ats a 100foot ship that has just been flipped on its side. Some of the damage were seeing right now reminds you a little bit at times of a tornado when houses just completely flatten. Youre looking at what was a large church in panama city. Most of the roof has just been sheared right off. After we landed, we met more of those affected on the ground. Hi. Including muriel stacy, who just moved here one year ago. So, you just moved down here juom michigan . Uhhuh. Glor and this happened. Yeah. An glor im sorry. So it basically ripped this whole section right through. Yeah, but it started back there. Im afraid to start cleaning it up and picking it up because, mores going to come down. Glor muriel still hasnt been able to contact relatives back in michigan, where she moved from, to let them know shes okay. Were trying to help her do that, but shes in a very difficult spot tonight, as so many are. Now lets to go to Omar Villafranca just east of here. You just saw some of mexico beach. He was on the ground there, where it made landfall. Reporter from above mexico beach, a town of more than 1,000 people, it looks like it was hit with a bomb. Row after row of homes were reduced to rubble. Hurricane michaels 155 mph winds and nearly 14foot storm surge leveled almost everything in its path. We followed First Responders as t ey went door to door for the srst time looking for survivors who rode out the hurricane. Everything looks intact. Sounds good. Reporter this crew from ceuisiana task force 1 has inrked big storms in the past, and dan simon says this catastrophic damage looks familiar. What were standing in right now is what katrina did to new orleans, you know, especially the lower ninth ward. Reporter just over here there are some duplex, homes with foundations, but they were just completely pushed off and fecked. As a matter of fact, the clean up process is starting over here with these people. This way, this was oceanfront property, and these people took the brunt of hurricane michael. The whole wall was moving back and forth. Reporter mike marciel lives in one of the hardesthit areas. He lost everything, but just wants to let his family in california and colorado know hes alive. Were okay. Ill call you as soon as we can. We love you. God spared us. Reporter First Responders estimate it will take months, and for some, years, to fully recover. But for now, residents say they just need a little help. We have no jobs, nowhere to go. Cant get out. Dnt have a lot of money. What do you do next . Reporter the debris piles here in mexico beach are 15 to 20 feet high, and they are everywhere and they stretch for miles. re theyre blocking many of the main roadways, making it difficult for the First Responders to get around. Now, fema and the National Guard are here, but i talked to several residents who tell me they are overwhelmed. They dont know where theyre going to sleep tonight, because they dont have a home to go back to. Jeff . Glor omar, thank you. That is the amazing and saddening part about this, scenes like that youre seeing for miles and miles down here anong the panhandle. At the height of this storm, Nikki Battiste hunkered down in a shelter in the town of tistol. Thats about 45 miles outside tallahassee. And she was with residents today as they very nervously returned to their homes. Reporter deidre hawthrone and her family are leaving this shelter, where they rode out mrricane michael with more than 200 other people. Whats going through your mind right now . Dread. Reporter hawthorne is returning to the place shes called home in bristol for the last 18 years. Oh, my god. Reporter we were with her when she saw her house for the first time. Somehow it still stood, beneath this twisted knot of fallen trees. Her daughter amanda had to find another way into the house. This tree happened to fall the other way, narrowly missing their home. What are you feeling as you come home . Devastated, scared. Happy. Ive still got a home. Reporter but not everyone was so lucky. The storm messed up our house. Reporter britney chambers and her fouryearold daughter urmani returned home to see firsthand what michael unleashed. The storm devastated chambers entire street and sent this tree hraight through her daughters bedroom. When you look in there, how do u feel inside . Sad. Reporter your home is severely damaged. You are alive. What have you lost . Materialistic things that can e replaced. As long as i have her, this is everything that matters to me in the world. Reporter this entire county has no power, and a local Electricity Company says theyve ordered 300 utility poles to repair downed power lines like this one. They also say they have no idea when the electricity will be restored here. Jeff . Glor not many people do at this point, nikki, thanks. Nis storm is moving north tonight.
