Take a look at the photographs and video to see what happened:

US Coast Guard Air Station Clearwater saved a man and his dog, Thursday, during Hurricane Helene after his 36-ft sailboat became disabled and started taking on water approximately 25 miles off Sanibel Island, Florida.

Bald Eagle Drive in Marco Island, Florida, was under water about two hours before high tide Thursday night. Roads were flooded throughout the largest of the Ten Thousand Islands as Hurricane Helene started to come ashore north in Big Bend, about 165 miles north.
