Good news in a way...last time I read this they were still trying to account for people on the ground as it was assumed there probably had been someone in the houses.

Thankfully seems not.

Stil,, not very nice for anyone involved but I bet there are a few feeling lucky today.

Not good, but could have been much, much worse.

Sadly, the US Navy lost an F/A-18E while making an approach to the USS Carl Vinson the same day about 500 miles West of this accident. Thankfully, the pilot was able to get out of his aircraft as well -
