Heart of st. Augustine, florida. It used to be a property across from the water as one of our producers noted, it is a property in the water now. Ill speak live with the citys mayor just ahead. And a look here from st. Augustine, just a few moments ago. Well, this tells the whole story. You can barely see anything. Weve been checking back for live pictures for sometime now.

Heres what else he told us awhile ago that he is worried about. This is the only replica of the america from 1851. The real irony for me is that the original boat was sunk here in 1862 by the confederate navy, so i certainly dont want to repeat history. Reporter yes. Folks here still bracing for the worst. It
