Aerial video shows wrath of Hurricane Ian on Daytona Beach shores
HEY, STU. SO WE ARE SEEING SOME PRETTY EXTENSIVE DAMAGE HERE ALONG THE SHORELINE HERE IN DAYTONA SHORES. I WANT TO TAKE YOU A LOOK HERE. LOOK AT A SHOPPING CENTER. NOT ONLY WAS THE WAVES AGAINST THE BEACH, BUT THE WINDS HAVE JUST BEEN INTENSE. I KNOW WE SAW 81, 82 MILE PER HOUR GUSTS AT THE AIRPORT. I GOT TO THINK THAT THE WINDS WERE A LITTLE BIT STRONGER HERE RIGHT AGAINST THE OCEAN, BECAUSE YOU CAN JUST SEE THAT ROOF COMPLETELY RIPPED. THIS IS NOT THE ONLY SPOT WHERE WE鈥橵E BEEN SEEING DAMAGE. WE鈥橵E SEEN PLENTY OF HOTELS WITH SOME ROOF DAMAGE AS WELL. A LOOK, THE SEAWALL THE SEAWALL HAS COMPLETELY COLLAPSED IN INTO THE INTO THE BEACH. AND THAT EROSION AHEAD OF IT HAS BEEN DRAINING POOLS. WE鈥橵E BEEN SEEING A COUPLE OF PEOPLE TRYING TAKE A LOOK AND TRY TO ASSESS THAT DAMAGE. SEEMS A LITTLE UNSAFE IN SOME THESE SPOTS BECAUSE THE WHILE THE BLACKTOP THERE SEEMS TO BE SOLID UNDERNEATH IT. WE鈥橵E BEEN SEEING JUST AGAIN, IT LOOKS LIKE THE GROUND UNDERNEATH THAT HAS BEEN JUST BEING PULLED AWAY VERY CLOSE THERE TO THAT POOL AS WELL. SOME OF THESE IF WE ZOOM IN THERE, KIRBY THAT THAT STAIRCASE THERE IT LOOKS LIKE THE STAIRCASES ARE ALMOST FLOATING OVER THE BEACH LINE. AGAIN, THE CONCRETE THERE IS STILL THERE. BUT THE OCEAN WATER HAS JUST BEEN REALLY JUST ERODING THIS AWAY. AGAIN, ALL ALONG THIS AREA HERE ON THE SIDE NEAR DAYTONA BEACH SHORES, WE鈥橵E JUST BEEN SEEING SOME ROOF DAMAGE, PLENTY OF SHINGLE DAMAGE AS WELL. WE鈥橵E BEEN SEEING SOME OF THESE, AGAIN, HOTELS WITH, JUST THE ROOFS COMPLETELY GONE IN SOME SPOTS AND ALONG WITH SOME SHOPPING CENTERS, AGAIN, WE鈥橰E GOING TO CONTINUE TO WATCH THIS ALL THIS DAMAGE ALONG THE BEACH, UP AND DOWN THE SHORELINE. THIS IS NOT WHERE WE鈥橵E BEEN SEEING. WIDESPREAD FLOODING LIKE WE鈥橵E SEEN. BUT AGAIN, JUST THE EROSION AND THE WIND DAMAGE HERE HAS BEEN QUITE. REPORTIN
