OMG OMG OMG OMG
This house is on the Grand Lagoon in Panama City Beach. My parents live right off of the Lagoon, but we did not think they were in any danger. I am getting no answer at their house. Trying to get hold of other siblings to see if they have heard from them. My dad is 85 and my mom is 83. PLEASE PRAY FOR THEM!!!!
PRAYING!
Listen, Dems_R_Losers, call the police. Here is the information:
Phone (850) 233-5000/Emergency # 911
Location: 17110 Firenzo Avenue, Panama City Beach, Fl 32413
They will be able to tell you what happened to that area.
You and your parents are in my thoughts and prayers.
I will pray for them throughout the day till I hear you've heard. I'll especially include them as well as that man on CNN with his son and grandson whose wife was torn from his hands by the force of the wind. So heartbreaking but if they live in that neighbourhood, it doesn't look too bad now. I guess it depends on how high it was yesterday at it's peak. Some areas are almost bone dry while a block away a house is up to it's roof. I will pray for everyone there...the victims and the rescuers. I'm trying to get people up here to send help to take care of pets etc. More later.
Don't worry too much. The original caption for that house identified it as one that was still being rebuilt after Hurricane Dennis (I think Dennis) from last year. That is not new damage. Winds there weren't that strong - but I'm sure phone lines are down.
Panama City did not get hit very hard at all. The picture you posted was actually from a Grand Lagoon neighborhood in Pensacola. I am very near Grand Lagoon in Panama City right now - we are fine here.
Hope this helps!

I will pray for your parents! If it helps any, it looks like that house was under construction, so the damage looks worse than it really is.
Praying that your parents (and their home) are safe and secure.
