Anyhow, hopefully the casualties will be minimal as well as the damage.

These people's IQ put together did not exceed the wind speed.
Did you see the footage of the idiot & company that stayed on a pier on Galveston Beach? It was a two story restaurant looking thing on a pier with some crummy living space above it. The whole bottom floor which was the restaurant fell into the ocean. They were lucky they were not all killed.
It does not show it in the video, but it looked really junky. I would be scared to stay on it in a thunderstom, let alone a hurricane.
