I took a series of photos on march 28th, looks the same only the grass is higher. On that date there were vehicles everywhere including under houses.

I was on the MS coast about a month ago and it still looks horrible. A lot of cleanup has been done, but to see what once was a highway lined with business almost void of traffic and no business that I recall opened along it was heartbreaking. (Highway 90 from Gulfport thru Biloxi) And on the back streets, the destruction was just as bad. It will take years for MS to recover from this. I just pray that God is merciful to the folks along the MS coast and New Orleans and doesn't allow another monster storm in this area again!
