This could be Florida's Katrina. Shaping up to be a huge disaster.

@tbaydog Are you still in Tampa? If so stay safe man!

 

[Dawg1976]

Hope not. I received my homeowners renewal Saturday and it's up 27% over last year. This is in Meridian not the coast. Everyone should get ready for higher rates due to all these storms and escalated replacement costs.

and Bob Carskadon, last I heard he was still in Tampa/St Pete

 

[DesotoCountyDawg]

If it takes the path that is forecasted right now it could be catastrophic.

Latest recon found 933mb.. probably 150 mph at next update.

The track moved slightly north to Sarasota. If it moves 30 more miles north it will become the costliest hurricane in history by a wide margin.

 

[thatsbaseball]

If the European model is accurate Tampa and Orlando (and many other smaller places) will be devastated.

@tbaydog Are you still in Tampa? If so stay safe man!

yes, ******* { ah} very tight.............thanks much............

It just passed our resort on the Yucatán. Just a little rain and thunderstorms last night. Pretty wild how it spun up so quickly.

Saying it's going to be a Cat 5 later today

We forget that just south of there got waxed by Ian in 2022 and recovery is still on-going there. I just noticed that before Irma in 2017, Florida hadn't had a major hurricane since 2005. Been ravaged pretty good since Irma though.

Will be the first west to east Cat 5 recorded in the Gulf as well I believe

 

[ckDOG]

You hate to root for a hurricane to move in any direction bc people live all up and down the west coast of Florida, but this thing really really needs to stay south of Tampa Bay.

 

[IBleedMaroonDawg]

Great animation. I do wonder what's gonna happen after it goes across Florida?

He's 2 mph shy now... wow.

My company is based out of St Pete and I was just on a call with a coworker that lives on a boat. He is staying. That is absolutely nuts.

I certainly wish him the best, but from what I'm seeing they might wanna start looking at resumes for that job.

He is freaking crazy. I hope he survives. When we had 6 weeks with no tropical storms and the gulf water just getting hotter and hotter, I was worried we'd have an October like this. This one is shaping up to be the worst 1-2 hurricane punch in history.

NASA has a special radar. It will not get touch.

My wife is on a Disney planner group and there’s people arguing saying that families shouldn’t cancel their Disney trip. Morons live among us.

 

[L4Dawg]

If the current dead center of the cone turns out to be the actual track, that is just about the worst case scenario for a hurricane in the US.

Didn't take long. It's already at CAT 5.

 

[biodawg]

That thing is gonna just carve a path through Florida. Good grief. Prayers for those folks.

I heard if you repeat “there is no global warming” three times and click your heels it will all go away***

Can’t be good that it has the longest path possible strengthen if it stays that path.

I have a 1,500 sq ft townhome in Miramar Beach on the gulf and the insurance is $16k/yr. It's stupid.

I’ll admit I have a friend who got lucky a couple of years ago and went when a storm shifted and stayed off the East coast so it was empty and nice weather, but even if you were coming back Wednesday, the joy of no line rides would be outweighed by the nightmare of exiting traffic and hunting gas. You aren’t going to be able to do anything Wednesday or Thursday and who knows how long cleanup will take.

I75 north about 50 miles north of Tampa

His boat is going to end up in a parking lot. ...At the airport.

Sorry, my comprehension is slow this morning.........

Milton should weaken before it hits FL. It is currently taking advantage of near perfect conditions to rapidly intensify, but as it gets closer to FL it is forecast to encounter some pretty significant wind shear which would serve to weaken at least some. It is still forecast to be a major hurricane but shouldn't be a 5 at landfall.

The globe warms up everyday when the sun rises. Of course there is global warming. These deniers crack me up***

[Drebin]

I think shear is going to weaken it before it makes landfall.

It'll still be bad, but cat 2 or 3 instead of 5.

if everyone believes in global warming at the same time it’ll put juuust enough English on the weather. We’ve got a little over 24 hrs, lets do a poll

God knows we haven't had any category-five hurricanes before...
