Is that ALL flood damage? Looks like high winds could have mixed things up a bit...

Flightwxman,

That's flood damage. The winds helped produce the coastal/tidal flooding.

Some additional food for thought...

Although the raging floodwaters knocked down some trees and flattened some fences, not everything that was swept under the floodwaters met an unhappy fate.
