wow. big surprise. i looked yesterday-nothing but a maybe mid atlantic. this one was hugely rapid building. about 40-45 mi inland from cedar key so i look to get a big piece of this one. been done it before,so wait and hope for the best.
can't avoid anywhere in FL or so. al,miss,louisiana,w.TX.,costal GA,SC. sucks bad but northen blizzard,kali fires,midwest tornadoes also suck i am sure. we do get our share of tornadoes at times.
Western Panhandle, Pensacola to Destin, hasn't gotten a strong one since Ivan, while just east of us got rocked by Micheal in 18. They keep pointing this thing towards the big bend so looks like this area might avoid another one.
