I evacuated from P.C., but reports from friends and family who stayed indicate heavy tornado damage in Parker area east of P.C. and also in the Thomas Drive area. One reports said Hamilton's Restaurant (across the street from Capt. Anderson's) lost all or most of it's roof. My mom said this a.m. 80% of Bay County is without power. No report of storm surge damage yet. Indefinite mandatory curfew in effect in Bay County presently.
