A hurricane is about to hit a Florida seaside town. People board up their homes, while manatees, fish, and shore birds sense the coming of the storm and take shelter in the safety of a mangrove swamp. Detailed realistic-looking oil paintings and ink and watercolor spot art show the storm and its aftermath in addition to the swamp's protective adaptations.
