More Ike damage here: 50-80 feet of beach lost!

Wow... the hurricane's powerful storm surge sheared the fronts off dunes, leaving them as vertical as cliffs. Portions of the islands lost between 30 feet and 50 feet to erosion caused by storm surge and some lost as much as 80 feet, according to recent estimates by local scientists.
