I guess that there is really no area untouched.
I just heard a news flash (a lead to 10 o'clock news) saying that "...a coastal town has been discovered as 100% gone and where are all the people?" Of course, they didn't say the name of the town so that you would watch the news, but it appeared to be south of Surfside. Well, anyway, hope that things fall back into place as quickly as possible for everybody.
