I’m sure you’ve seen lots of Hurricane Helene news and pictures and videos over the weekend. But I wanted to also share some that I have seen because its way more damage than some people realize. Our Tampa Bay area families are definitely in need of our help in every way we can.

A friend and videographer, Ryan McGibbeny, made this drone video when he went to help a friend on Sunset Beach in Treasure Island:

Here are some pics of how much sand washed on shore in Pass-a-Grille:

Here’s another drone video of the damage to St. Pete Beach:

And here are just a few pics I grabbed from Getty Images that show how bad it got all across our area from Crystal River down through the barrier Islands.

This is just a small sample of all the damage from around the area. Just know that there are lots of people all around our area, and the state (plus North Carolina, Georgie, Tennessee, etc.) that will need some assistance for quite awhile.
