Collapsed Store Roof

2017-01-24 By Roger Edwards

This store roof caved in near the intersection of Krome Ave. and Silver Palm Dr., in the “Redlands” just north of Homestead.  Note the sockets on the top of the wall at right, which did contain the roof connections.  Cables, formerly attached to the roof, dangled from an overhead wall (unseen).  The great majority of Andrew’s destruction in South Florida was, like this store, wind damage well inland and away from the storm surge. 5 N Homestead FL (Aug 92) Looking NW 25.5501, -80.4784

About

Welcome to SkyPix, an online photo book of clouds, weather and water by Roger Edwards. As in a printed coffee-table book, every image has its own page with a unique story.

As a scientist and an artist, I hope my deep passion for the power and splendor of our skies and waters shines through in these pages. If you are a cloud and weather aficionado, outdoor enthusiast, outdoor or nature photographer, art lover, or anyone who craves learning, enjoy...
