were a strong as those it was so fast, that it didn't do as much damage as some of the other storms, including maria and jose that we have seen so far this year. >> i'm sure preparation helped as well. how did the areas along the gulf prepare for this, this storm. >> reporter: well, this is the gulf coast and they were all over it, before the storm hit, we saw a lot of sand bagging, people were boarding up their homes, some of the areas near the coast were evacuated and people heated those warnings, people tying up their boats. there were shelters opened but people just decided to stay inside and wait out the storm and that is what they did. >> courtney, there in biloxi, mississippi we will get back to you. thanks so much. lets get a check of our weather. lets go over to meteorologist chelsea ingram with the eyewitness weather forecast. still tracking nate, this morning and have been downgraded this morning from the hurricane. >> it has been downgraded and we will tap into those tropical ingredients but not
