Low key tearing up at whats about to happen.

A co-worker of mine lives in Daytona (she works from home). They were told to evacuate and if they refuse they must sign a waiver stating they are staying at their own risk and emergency personnel may not be there to rescue them. People who stay put not only their own lives at risk, but the lives of others as well!

I have a parent north of Tampa. It doesn't look like it's going to be too bad there. Must be far enough north and west.

If I may ask, my wife has family in I believe Port Charlotte. They left to stay with other family in Orlando. Are they better off in Orlando, or should they get out of Florida all together?

This latest slight shift to the west is not good, it kinda puts the path right up the middle of Florida, straight up to Georgia. They are saying power could be out for weeks or months in some places.

We are staying, but going to my son's place because it is concrete and steel and has a generator. I was planning on staying in our place, but we are not far from water and not far above sea level.

Last they posted they were both staying. Guessing they lose power overnights Saturday; I wonder if cellphone tower will be able to stay on?

The track on the middle of Florida means the east coast of Florida gets the weaker side of the storm wind wise. And less of the storm will be over the Atlantic so less storm surge? Much worse for the west side but the storm should weaken faster with it over land
