Watch: Drone shows Nocatee, Palm Valley, Micklers, Jax Beach after Matthew

St. Johns County was one of the hardest-hit areas in the state of Florida by Hurricane Matthew, and many residents of Nocatee, Palm Valley and Ponte Vedra Beach evacuated after the storm.

Aerial Photography Jacksonville flew their drone above these areas as soon as they could on Saturday, less than 24 hours after the storm:
