    Right now it doesn't look bad for the surge around Tampa as Stinky had said but this track has been like Sybil, we should know in a few more hours where it will actually end up. Of course you made the same choice any parent would taking her out of there, glad she made it out.

    Unfortunately there are some people where I am, living in 1960's-1980's mobile homes that I have been unable to convince to leave. Some saying we are protected by some Indian god because of burial mounds in the area. When I point out there were numerous burial mounds around Miami, Fort Myers, and other areas that have been devastated by hurricanes before they just ignore that fact. Going to be a bad scene here.

    The 3 closest Waffle Houses are closed, almost all in the Tampa area are closed, not good.

    Track came back north again, looks like the eye is going to pass over around 10, winds dropping down to 4 mph so I guess that's when the eye will go over, or at least what they are thinking for now

    It's pretty bad here in Ellenton. Got lucky with my place, carport mostly gone, but seems house envelope pretty intact.

    Have someone's roof in my side yard though
