Im in the process of moving to FL. I'm so glad I didn't decide on the Tampa or St. Petersburg area... The one thing I told some Family late July when we hit the waves: the water is extremely warm, and that's akin to supercharging a Hurricane.:eek: Hope the damn thing fizzles out, but doesn't look like it.
Lucrum, I must have big arrow on ignore for whatever reason, which i can't recall. I could read his post, but only after it was quoted. I'll be living exactly 5' above sea level in FL vs the 612' now. Just glad I picked an area that's not prone to direct Hurricane hits. Oh yes, I know all about probabilities which I brought up to the realtors as they said, "we've not taken a direct hit here since the 1960's." Tells me to be prepared as they live in some fantasy World... Last, you know how much it costs to store food, water, ammo, etc., in case the shit hits the fan?:eek: Ouch! What a job that is! Wow!
