Jim Cantore pointed at a casino on the oceanfront in Biloxi and speculated rather strongly: "Look at it. In all likelihood, in the aftermath of this storm, it will be gone."

The size of this storm will leave a swath of destruction that is difficult to grasp.

Jim is standing in front of the SMALLEST Casino in Biloxi. The beautiful Beau Rivage and Grand Casino far rival what we are seeing.

Because the LAW says no Casino's will be built on land, they had to build them all out into the water..Tunica MS as well..

Historical perspective---in the Great Hurricane of 1938 that ravaged New England, Rhode Island's Watch Hill Yacht Club got picked up whole and dropped into the bay.
It also took away a number of sturdy lighthouses and innumerable houses built to withstand Atlantic fury.
Hundreds of people died.
