Milton made landfall 6 miles from my house. the leading eyewall was ok but the “back” eyewall scared the hell out of me! i have new respect for category 3 hurricanes.
It was almost 🐱 4. I agree the back eye wall we worst. I was in the eye first time in my life and it was such an eerie moment. So we must be neighbors. I live in Osprey.
😩 yes, all the beaches of the Pinellas County barrier islands did sea oats planting, quite a few years ago. Very successful.

Very sad.
I used to be involved with our report to Congress on the status and trends of the nation's wetlands. We used aerial imagery to compare changes to wetlands at 5-year intervals. It was shocking to see wetlands and beaches torn to shreds by hurricanes
I agree. These storms change the coastal areas and it’s mind blowing. This was my first time going through such a large powerful storms despite living here for over 20 years. It was hard not to know will happen and if I still have a house to live in…
