So what percentage of “Floridians” are new enough to the affected areas to have no idea what hell they’re about to go through?

Couple that with MiamiDade/ Palm Beach suddenly becoming more affected…… yikes some newbies are in for a ride …

Looks like we’ve got good agreement now between the models that we’ll see an actual landfall rather than Ian clinging to the coast. NHC come reflects that, of course. Gonna be a wild ride for many in Florida.

Lots of New Yorkers and Californians about to experience something they haven’t before. In the Carolinas there’s a term called “half-backers.” Northerners who moved to Florida, but got tired of the heat and storms… so they moved halfway back.

I have been thinking the exact same thing. That part of Florida, like most other parts of Florida has see masses of people from other areas of the country move those coastal areas. As myself someone who is from SWLA I know all too well what hurricanes can do now and to be honest hurricane Laura just blew me away with the damage it caused. Unfortunately many of these folks in the Tampa area are going to have a tough year maybe two ahead of them as they work to be rebuild. This will be especially true for transplants to that area. I do feet bad for them. I don’t wish these hurricane in anyone.

I just went to Home Depot and Walmart got a generator, an AC, Tarps, 5 more cases of water (must be up to 30 right now), batteries, filled up 3 gas cans.

You would have thought it was a normal Tuesday morning.

ETA: Oh and toilet paper was completely in stock
