Breaking news, eh? Then you all need to have the zillion mega pixel graphics deleted as they are posted. I'm going into early retirement after this.

This could be worse then andrew damage wise...Andrew jogged south and missed miami..and hit the less populated areas just south and then moved into the swamps..i assume mobile has a bigger population then the south suburbs of miami..and likley weaker building codes too

Yeah, the central core is fine... It was a bit less symmetrical an hour ago, more of a tilt though, rather than a lopsided core.
