Description
As folks in Pinellas County watch the forecast and prep for the potential storm ahead, the name Debby rings familiar for folks near Pass-a-Grille Beach and beyond.
Back in 2012, then-Tropical Storm Debby caused beach loss, erosion, flooding and even brought tornados through the area as it sat on top 12 years ago.
“[I remember] the high tides, the flooding,” Rick Falkenstein, who owns Hurricane Seafood Restaurant, said.
His spot has been a staple in the community since the 1970s, and he’s been here for every storm since.
“I’ve been through so many, you just hope nothing bad happens, if it does, it does, that’s why most of us have insurance. Save life, that’s the important thing," Falkenstein said.
