Thank you Mr. Castor 🫡

TGH needs to move to New Tampa. Having it downtown makes no sense.

[@risingoneagleswings1776]

Lol. The track just shifted more west AWAY from Tampa.

[@Simplysmiling91]

The more it shifts away the more storm surge Tampa gets

[@Bumblebeans69]

Do you not understand how hurricanes work? The right side of the storm is NOTORIOUSLY the worst. Yall getting surge unless this thing tracks WAY east.

[@risingoneagleswings1776]

@@Simplysmiling91 That depends on how far west. I am thinking from the current track 1-3 ft. Which is nothing for the Tampa Bay area.

[@risingoneagleswings1776]

@@Bumblebeans69 Yes. Fully understand. Been studying them since High school. This is a compact storm . Like if the center goes over Panama City that's 400 miles west of Tampa. This storm will be nowhere near that large. That means any affects from the right side of the storm will cause minimal surge for Tampa Bay and areas north and south along the coast.

[@Simplysmiling91]

@@risingoneagleswings1776 it says 5-8 feet with the current track and it also kings tide.
