ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. — Hurricanes Helene and Milton caused damage all over the City of St. Petersburg.

You might even notice the area at the St. Pete Pier looking a little different.

Officials had to remove the Bending Arc sculpture recently because of damage from Milton.

The city is storing the artwork to fully assess the amount of damage it took, but it's still not clear whether it can be reinstalled at this time.

Welty's mobile home lost its roof during Hurricane Milton. She said it was the only one in the Buena Vista community to get totaled by a tornado.
