Safer than Tampa, that’s for sure.

Philly is a possibility. We have good friends there. But Ive never really been there, just drove by

Move to Dallas. Relatively safer but real hot during summers. People are laid back. Rodeo all you want. Go eat your heart out at Golden Corral and become morbidly obese.

Idk about Dallas but Houston is definitely top of the list so far. We visited early this year to check out houses and the city. MD Anderson is a major reason why we’d move there. I personally thought Texas is too much like Florida. Hot as fuck, flooding everywhere when it rains and Mexicans :grin:

It looks like the strongest bands on radar will come through between Tampa and Sarasota. Clearwater is just dodging the bullet. Worst surge is seemingly in Englewood and Port Charlotte again. Reports of debris in Sarasota though, that really sucks for those nice hotels down there. I love that Westin down there, hope they can recover quickly.

Also reports of waters pulling back in Tampa because the wind direction is changing up there.

Sarasota 962mb is their all-time lowest pressure and they will beat it shortly, according to the stream I'm watching. That's sickly low P.

@Bjerknes is this normal hurricane behavior ?

Absolutely. The eye wall is south of Tampa, so the winds are out of the Northeast, drawing water out of the bay and offshore. South of Sarasota, the winds are out of the Southwest. Totally normal and a good thing, but will change once the storm pushes through the mainland.

This might be even worse than the surge.

And FYI tropical cyclones rotate counterclockwise in the northern hemisphere. I should have mentioned that earlier.

So far just lot of rain on my cameras - power went off for a bit but back on.

19 tornados so far? Crazy
