Pensacola

The past two weeks have been deadly along one of Louisiana's favorite places to play. If you have a beach trip planned for the fourth, here's what you should know.

Hurricane Sally passed through the Gulf Coast this week and did quite a bit of damage to the area, including parts of the 3 Mile Bridge in Pensacola, FL. New drone footage shows the severity of the damage to the newly finished bridge. The footage was tweeted out by @WEARAllenStrum and you can see it below We first reported the breaking of the bridge while inclement weather was still hanging around

The bridge, part of Highway 98, spans Pensacola Bay, connecting Pensacola to Gulf Breeze, Florida.
