How many can you see ashore? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LUWCBUM7_Eg


Somehow a video just can't capture what it was like in person. Not
knockin' just this video.... I've seen quite a few and none of them
can. I guess it's better than print or a verbal rendition though.
Still, you just can't imagine without actually seeing it.

BTW, most of it was shot in downtown Gulfport, apparently from inside
the parking garage behind Hancock Bank. Some appeared to be as it was
coming ashore and the rest after it was all over. I didn't see
anything showing the worst of it and the tidal surge rolling in. Maybe
the camera guy had more important things on his mind during that
period -shrug-
