The Florida Panhandle sees ~$3B in tourism revenue each year.

Hurricane Michael cost Florida ~$25B in damage in 2018!
Michael struck the Panhandle as a Cat 5 — the strongest ever to hit the region. Coastal development has made Panhandle landfalls costlier over time; insured losses from Michael alone topped $12 billion.
