00:00ECE is moving away, but my goodness, that's as nasty as I've seen you look all night, Leslie.
00:12Yeah, I know you told me in our last live shot that things are going to improve.
00:17They have got to do so.
00:19It is crazy.
00:21Wow.
00:22Again, barely stand.
00:24And I'm worried about a piece of debris.
00:26David, I'm going to hear you.
00:28I'm going to turn it over to that piece of debris.
00:31Debris is on the ground where we are, and it's littered of this area.
00:38But I have some video that we just said to you guys.
00:41So David and I were out not even two minutes from our hotel.
00:45And it's not a transformer, but some electricity.
00:49We don't know what happened.
00:50Some poles collided in blue.
00:52If you guys can know that, we can show you what happened.
00:56It's a short clip, but it crossed.
00:59And then that apartment complex that was attached to that car line with dark.
01:04So we are getting sporadic power outages here.
01:09And I don't know if you guys got that.
01:13We're trying to make sure we're not getting anything coming over our head.
01:17But anyway, so it's still quite dangerous here in Panama City Beach.
01:22The rain is gone.
01:24The winds are a huge factor.

01:33All right.
01:36Yeah, we're going to, Leslie, we can barely, you know what, Leslie was talking about all the bad the wind
01:41is here.
01:42Let me show you what's going on.
01:44I have Doppler radar up here.
01:46What I've done is you can measure the wind speed and direction using Doppler radar.
01:53So I wanted to take a look at that with what's going on here.
01:58So here is Panama City right here.
02:01That's where Leslie is located.
02:02Let's see what Doppler radar is estimating.
02:05There's 49 miles per hour.
02:07There's a 78.
02:08That's offshore.
