If you live near or around sea level, especially in the Tampa Bay area, you can not survive the forecasted storm surge by accident. This is not a joke. I know you may have lived in Florida your whole life and been through dozens of hurricanes, but it only takes one you aren’t prepared for. As a result of having narrowly avoided multiple severe hurricane impacts over the past 100 years, the Tampa Bay area has been built up with little consideration for the fact that it eventually would be hit. The only regional trauma center is at sea level and on an island.
Do not play with your life.
Also do not accidentally dox yourself on this post
I’m in the Tampa area and same. I talked to a woman at the laundry mat tonight who is going to ride it out in her mobile home. Hope she is okay. I already have some people coming over to my place to ride it out who are in other lower flood zones.
Oh god I hope she’s safe. Thats terrifying. You also stay safe.
