No kidding. Central FL is going to be extremely wet, coast to coast for a few days. Tamps bay will probably never look the same again.

Looked at the path this morning and it appears that we might just get hit dead center.

As of right now, it's predicted to hit the north tip of Anna Maria Island and possibly run directly up the mouth of Tampa Bay.
If it does, I'm praying that it's low tide when it comes through.

Our tides are usually small like 1-2', but in the last few days they've been about 1' higher than normal.
High tide would be a bad thing.
Thankfully, I'm inland about 12-15 miles and around 100' altitude.

Looks like it's a batten down the hatches storm.

Predicting 5-10 feet of storm suge in the bay area. Lots of pre-70s neighborhoods around Tampa. Many at about 3' ASL. Stay safe.

It's not that easy.
3 kids at home, oldest daughter and husband coming over and the MIL coming over.

Then there's that pesky money thing that's always in the way.

If I had lots of property, then the daytime power outages would be spent shooting. 🙂

I'm at 12-15 miles inland and 100' plus altitude just south of the Alafia river.


Flood-wise, we're fine. If we have any issues it'll be wind related problems.
There's a really tall pine tree right at the back edge of my property line. It can fall if it wants to but not in a southerly direction....

My niece lives in south Tampa between Westshore and the bay.
I think they are in that 3' area.
No fucking way would I ever live in south Tampa.

Flood and wind zone, not to mention too damn many people.
 
That bra is way to big for her titties. Both my engine mechanic expert and painter are both saying that I go on the way I am going, meaning wrap and cover. I do appreciate your input.

Give the header manufacturer a call and see what they say about wrapping them.
