Drove the rest of the way to Pooler, GA, and was a tad early for my 7:30 AM EDT loading appointment. Loaded a Volvo ECR145EL Excavator that is going to Saint Rose, Louisiana.
Left there and headed that way. Driving west on I-10 through the 'Big Bend" area of Florida I went through the area hit by Hurricane Idalia. I-10 is at least an hour north of the Gulf of Mexico Coast. There was a lot of tree damage. A lot of the road signs were also broken off or gone. Here are a few photos of what it looks like along I-10 two weeks after the storm.
That is just a small sample. I didn't think about getting photos until I had past the worst of it. The damage was worst in about a 25-mile stretch along I-10. For those that have seen tornado damage, think about a tornado 25 miles wide. That was what this looked like. I stopped for the night at the TA truck stop in Mariana, Florida.
