incredible drone video from Panama City
here showing a school ripped apart by
Hurricane Michaels historic winds we're
hiding in the closet I like it here is a
lot of wind and I thought the roof is
gonna come just look at all of the
debris clogging the streets as workers
use this heavy machinery to try to even
clear a path more than 700,000 people in
four states are now without power after
the storm and those downed power lines
and debris filled streets have
authorities warning everyone to stay in
place at least for now
local tends to row for an a live now in
Apalachicola with much more force Tyrell
well those emergency responders are just
starting to pull into town and into
areas all across the Florida Panhandle
that is why the governor and other
emergency managers want people to stay
off of the roads because they will also
encounter things like this you see this
cell boat it is no longer in the water
it is on dry ground this just gives you
a glimpse of the devastation across the
Panhandle
Oh God Panama City there's nothing there
Governor Rick Scott's surveying what's
left in the aftermath of hurricane
Michael he was in Panama City to assess
what resources will be needed in the
recovery process were resilient state
and you know we've been through a lot of
hurricanes with lots of storms and so we
take care of each other and they County
and the whole Panhandle is very
resilient people so you know they're
gonna come back right now my job is is
to do everything we can help to get
people keep people safe a drone flying
through what's left of the gymnasium of
a middle school the roof partially
peeled back like tin foil last year this
school welcomed children from Puerto
Rico who were displaced by Hurricane
Maria
the principal reacting I know what the
school means to our kids and our
community and to see that type of
devastation on their school and
realizing that that ever station not
only is their with their school but it's
also with their homes because the kids
live nearby one Panama City resident
comparing the aftermath to what he saw
after Hurricane Katrina the only problem
with this is nobody's gone house the
house foundation the foundation
find bodies like Petrina lots of people
taking to social media to show the
damage in this video showing a home in
st. Joe Beach that is now off its
foundation on the other side of the
street and stuck in floodwater also in
st. Joe Beach neighbors rushing out with
the ladder to help some people get down
from being stuck on a roof we have just
now flown over Mexico Beach and it's
gone CNN's Brooke Baldwin reporting from
Mexico Beach the damage seen from the
skies shows some homes just missing only
the outline of a foundation is all that
appears to be left in other areas huge
trees have been knocked down damage from
Hurricane Michael can be seen as far
away as the Jacksonville area and Sapta
peep trees debris and an overturned boat
were littered across a highway in
Jacksonville one couple's wedding plans
had to be reworked due to the hurricane
the bride and groom had planned to get
married Wednesday at the courthouse in
Tallahassee where they once lived but
instead they had to get married at
Jacksonville International Airport
before flying out for their honeymoon
and take a look at this we are just
seeing these images for the first time
this is brand-new drone video recorded
and Panama City Beach just this
afternoon it gives you an idea of just
the wide path of catice catastrophic
damage that hurricane Michael caused in
that area again we're talking about
winds of 155 miles per hour there were
many structures that just could not hold
up to those kinds of devastating winds
but out here in this community where I'm
at right now
there was a sign of life earlier the
town's only gas station was opened up
lines were very very long but after only
a few hours gas dried up there there is
still there is running water but there
are still no power at this point but as
far as the running water there is a boil
water notice in effect so the water
still at this point is not safe to drink
at least the coroner in Franklin County
I'm too rough one a local 10 News always
after the storm there's at least that
beautiful weather to help everyone in
this recovery Terrell thanks for your
live
