Josh Morgerman takes his documentary team into the fourth most powerful hurricane to hit mainland American since records began. Category 4 Hurricane Michael brings wind speeds of 155mph and unleashes more energy than an atomic bomb on Florida's Panama City.
Josh Morgerman and his filmmaking team continue to document the fourth most powerful hurricane to hit mainland America, hurricane Michael, as its devastating course progresses over Panama City. As 155mph winds wreak havoc on the city, it's a fight for survival for Stephen Brookins' family and filmmaker James. After the hurricane passes, the people of Panama City emerge to a different world. For many of them, their lives are changed forever. Almost every tree is down and 13,000 homes are destroyed. The emergency services struggle to cope with the workload. Meanwhile Josh's analysis of the hurricane's path leads him to the small town of Mexico Beach, which was obliterated by tsunami-like storm surge.
