00:00
there's quite a bit of street flooding here kind of making its way into some of these buildings
00:03
behind me it appears this goes all the way down uh down the road here into the neighborhood there
00:08
were just some emergency crews down there some fire trucks and police officers uh apparently
00:13
helping out so they just took off but yep long uh long road ahead to get back to normal here
00:21
on our being in sarasota uh have you seen anyone out or do you think the people who
00:25
have stayed put are respecting what a lot of officials are saying with just to stay indoors
00:30
right now there are many people out and about you hope that they have some relatively urgent
00:36
business to attend to rather than just going sightseeing because obviously with the recovery
00:42
efforts just getting underway we do need to try to keep those roads as clear as possible
00:47
all right connor so looking at the uh conditions out there you know we talked about some of the
00:52
worst conditions now how would you rate as far as the overall impacts that you have seen here
00:57
not just for milton but compared comparing milton to other hurricanes as far as the flooding
01:02
the storm surge and the wind damage how would you rate what you have seen so far from milton
01:08
it's significant i've seen some pretty intense hurricanes i was in panama city beach area for
01:14
hurricane michael in 2018 the category 5 so it can be tough to compare to something like that but
01:20
one other thing to note is that this part of florida is really built pretty well to withstand
01:25
these kinds of storms so even with a pretty intense storm like the one that we saw yesterday
01:30
fortunately you don't send them tend to see too much damage to the buildings themselves i've seen
01:35
some minor roof damage some uh tingles missing from some from some buildings some sheet metal
01:40
roofs torn off things like that but overall the structural damage seems relatively uh relatively
01:47
contained limited to some of those weaker structures so it it was a good it was a
01:51
good intense hurricane here but you know they weathered it okay
