    As a Harvey survivor, I cannot understand this. Windows from the high rises blown out? People died and the way the day turned to night instantly. Without a hurricane. Like I’m having a hard time processing that but I’ve never seen that not even with Harvey. Much love from San Antonio guys stay safe!

    You know, we get it downtown lost some windows. Let’s show the real victims, drive through the heights show the people who actually lost homes.

    I was in the eye of it and am still in shock. Ive been through many hurricanes, but this was so weird.

    Looks like a 5/6 year of recovery from this storm and the loss of lives will never be forgotten 😢😢😢 Prayers for Texans

    I've lived around tall buildings before and understand the term: "Wind Tunnel". Tall buildings magnify high speed winds and are really impressive when they get the ground to sway and heave. I wouldn't want to be anywhere near these modern, "high glass content" buildings, during a storm.

    Hey do you guys got anymore pictures of windows of the wells Fargo building? I was worried the whole time about it. Idk how the bank will recover.

    Officials are saying keep your distance because some of that debris could still fall down. See the officials in the background directly under the debris. 0:51

    Whitmire isa joke. What about those who lost homes and their livelihood ?! He is more worried about downtown businesses and workers responding it seams. They are important but what about the others and the families who lost loved ones ?!
