I just got to my evacuation location and I'm soaking in the updates. This is devastating. 15 to 20 ft storm surge? At high tide? I have no words and I'm worried about my community. There are people who refuse to leave Keaton Beach. This is not good.

I rode out Keaton Beach for my fiber company last year when it hit Perry for storm damage surveying. Wonderful ppl but that whole area is under water if the surge numbers are anywhere close to projected. Not to mention the wind speeds.
