here in panama city beach, we were near the center of the storm as it blasted away. we are now approaching the worst of hurricane michael. the city manager here tells us he thinks about 50% of residents have left town. at this point they are no longer responding to emergency calls. and if someone has a life-threatening emergency, they likely will not be able to get there. when michael made landfall, its winds topped out at 155 miles an hour. that is just two miles an hour short of category 5. gusts may have clocked in higher. many wind gauges broke. this is what it sounds like. pretty mu right up against pretty much all windows, the storm is trying to push through as best it can. it was enough to rip rooftops off buildings.

shoreline. if you take a look at what we're dealing with as of right now, okay, you've got a storm that's into georgia, way away from the ocean, and yet still holding onto cat-3 status. everybody asked the same question jeff glor is asking, how, how did this happen? what element came together? here is the deal. you had warm water. nothing but fuel in front of the system for it to feed on. we thought it would maybe pull in a little dry air. it never mixed in that way. that did not happen. you had rapid incontinuance if i indication and it never interacted at any point in time with the shoreline of the west coast of florida or the north portion of the panhandle. it just didn't happen. so you ended up were a nearly cat 5 landfall, the strongest storm in that area, the third strongest sthorm the u.s. has landfall.as far as a this is the picture at mexico beach. this is the worst i've seen so far. those are the tops of houses. that's about the worst storm surge we've seen. look at the destruction. we'll be seeing more pictures like this when we get daylight on it tomorrow. it should be pushing toward the
