Recent reports from the low-lying coastal town of Steinhatchee in Florida’s Big Bend area have revealed a devastating scene as homes were washed away by storm surge. The destructive force of the storm surge caused several homes to float away in fast-moving waters, leaving a trail of destruction in its wake.
Shaky video footage captured by storm chaser Aaron Rigsby shows the harrowing moment when the homes were pounded by wind and rain early Friday morning. According to Rigsby, the homes that were swept away appeared to be empty at the time of the incident.
