Hurricane Matthew: 'Big bad beast' storm batters Florida

Quin's boyfriend, Dillin, is in Florida and this was his first big storm since getting down there for school. He is not looking forward to going through anything like that again, but he did make it through okay and his mom flew down right before the storm hit his area to make sure he was safe and ready.

My sister-in-law is in Haiti running an art school and the area where she is made it through with minimal damage (comparatively) and her house and the art school both came through with no damage she said, but she shared some pictures from a local photographer who had traveled to some of the worse hit areas and the damage was really devastating.
