Lasted predicted path puts the center south of the Tampa Bay in the Sarasota area. Better for the bay but not so much for the south.
Especially with Biden/Harris pumping 15M illegal aliens into all available temporary housing.
this is one time I’m glad my girl didn’t inherit the house in Naples. Don’t need two places that get fucked by hurricanes.
They must be leaning on the ECMWF model for now. Guessing as it may better model the interaction (attraction) of the low pressure system off the east coast of Florida.
The last five GFS runs ( which is good ) has the storm going right up the Tampa Bay shipping channel.
There is approximately 12 miles divergence for landfall between the two models at this time.
Still too soon to be certain where Milton is going to go.
If that’s a system, it isn’t yet identified as anything yet. There is another one in the Atlantic, but like Kirk is expected to move northward and disappear as it hits cooler waters.
Starting to look like Sarasota is going to be ground zero for this thing; possibly even a bit south. We just had a cold front so maybe that's going to push Milton south a bit. Sad to see. If it's a direct hit at 150mph+ in Tampa & then moves on I-4 to Orlando or SR 60 to Melbourne, we're talking BILLIONS and BILLIONS of dollars of damage.
It's looking more & more like my dad and step-mother are going to be in the bullseye.
This is the most likely path, being the path of least resistance. This one’s going to kick ass and eliminate names.
Yikes, prayers for all! Both for those who will be impacted directly, & family / friends outside of the impact risk zone(s).
Expect loss of communication, eg don't stress into a health condition...zen, whatever works. Really.
5 and 0 so far in the panhandle on storms i don't know how long our luck will hold out and this is only our first year in fla
Grew up on the SE coast, eight years in the Pacific (five on an island) and 35 in NWFL. Typhoons/hurricanes are like Christmas. You know it’s coming, gonna be expensive, but you’re never quite ready.
Phew, good news. I have some friends on the other coast that are prepared but are struggling to keep their pool from overflowing
The shear is doing its job. Can’t really say what the storm surge will be but Milton is loosing some of its power. Lots of rain, still winds that are nothing to joke about but there might be a bit of hope at the end of this storm.
Latest radar picture shows it is, according to NOAA, a “sheared hurricane.”

TWC says it's still gonna be a cat 1 when it hits Daytona Beach tomorrow. Also 6 tornadoes so far, and up to 18" of rain. Their pool is gonna overflow.
I lived in Daytona for a couple years back in the 80s, never saw a hurricane.
No matter what people say, it’s cyclical.
Pervasive and constant 24/7 monitoring and reporting and to some extent increasing population density makes for a much more “eventful” situation.
Here’s a neat surface wind flow picture I posted elsewhere.
Hurricane seasons are pretty fickle. I lived in sw FL for just over 3yrs and saw several, a few in the 3/4 category. After I left there were very few and they weren’t very strong for about 10yrs.
Praying for everyone in the path of this thing. Had a pretty strong Tornado hit on the A1A Oslo area.

Florida man straps his entire house down ahead of Hurricane Milton
Tampa resident Mohammed Nijem recently went viral after local news outlet Spectrum Bay News 9 shared an image of the extreme preparations that he took ahead of Hurricane Milton to X.
Is this an above ground pool?
If it's not, sloshing around is no different than letting kids play in it.
Overfilling is a zero issue.
So far so good. We just had two flickers on the power, but otherwise pretty good. Rebecca's big wind chime is still hanging and playing notes.
I had to explain this same shit to my ex wife every damn storm that blew by. Did i say my ex wife.
Also had to explain to here that the house will probably never hit 72degrees in the summer no matter how long the ac ran when it was 9000 degrees outside. Did i mention ex wife?
tampa may have gotten a little lucky with the eye passing to the south, and the winds blowing offshore.
Mid 30s with 50ish gusts. Constant rain for several hours now. Last predicted track had us either in or very near the eye.
A buddy of mine lives on the Manatee River about a mile and a half west of 41.
He said the gusts are 100+ at his house.

This can help a lot by avoiding the peak of the surge driving deep into the bay.
Bay St. Louis in MS got hit hard by the surge in Katrina but NOLA stole all the headlines.
You guys are fucking killing me
