Prayers extended for all who didn't make it and for those who have not yet been found.

Very sad situation. We are very blessed to have early warning technologies and sturdy structures to protect our coastal residents.

Three towns and near a million folks?
Got news for ya, a town has like 12,000 people.

3 or 4 hundred thousand people isn’t a “town” in any dictionary I ever saw.

While any number of deaths is sad, I am surprised at the relatively low number of deaths from this hurricane (so far).

Considering the history of deaths by hurricane in this region, and the size of the winds, I had expected the death toll to be in the tens of thousands.

We’ll have to see what has happened after the storm has passed however.
