My wifes nephew lives in Mexico Beach. They got extraordinarily lucky and had just minor damage to their house considering everything.
He's in the Air Force down there and the base commander basically told anyone who can to get out of town until further notice. The AFB was pretty much totaled.. He and his wife are headed to Mississippi where his mama lives to stay with them..
Just wondering if Wright Patterson has been busy. I remember back during other hurricanes (when I lived in Dayton) they would scramble jets to WPAFB then when the hurricanes were past it would be non-stop jets taking off for a few days. I lived up on Gunkle Road during one and the jets flying directly over the house rattled the windows and basically shook the foundation of the house.. It made it kind of tough to sleep at the time.
