Oh Boy.....my luck it'll hit Sarasota a few days after moving there.

Stock up on the Green Chartreuse, before it goes up in price again!

When don't they?!?! What was it, three years ago had the most named storms ever, but only 1 made landfall?!?! I'd be willing to bet half never even formed, since they magically just drifted in the atlantic not getting close to anyone or anything. Gotta stoke those fear flames and cry climate change.

All models having it hit north of Tampa, mostly the big bend area, so it shouldnt be too bad for you.

The cone shifted east at 5pm, and the intensity increase (basically matches my earlier Accuweather map)

If that shifts just a little east it could make for some nasty fields come Friday-Sunday. Reminds me of this game: . Even the booth seats were getting wet in that game.

If you're so inclined, say a prayer for the folks in Cedar Key (SW of Gainesville)

Peaceful, old-timey place on the FL west coast if you've never been

Looks like they're in danger of a direct hit
