Hurricane and evacuations (Tampa, Key West, Englewood: real estate, to buy, camp)

[WRnative]

Overnight and through tomorrow, as the center of Hurricane Ian passes east of Tampa Bay with still hurricane force winds, projections still call for 4-6 feet of storm surge in Tampa Bay and torrential, perhaps record, rainfall and flooding.

That's if there are any companies outside of the state willing to write policies.

Current situation:

Hurricane Ian's counter clockwise winds drained Tampa Bay when Ian was south of Tampa Bay. As Ian moved northeast, and this impact diminished, the bay refilled with water.

Eventually, as Ian moves north of Tampa Bay, the counter clockwise winds are expected to push water into Tampa Bay, possibly creating the projected 4-6 foot storm surge. The projection is from the NHC, as indicated in the peak storm surge graphic linked in the post 276 here.

I'm not surprised you didn't know this, given your general level of displayed ignorance. E.g., as noted in post 173 in the following thread, you've been more than simpatico with the handful of Big Lie Climate Change Deniers in this forum, who even deny the empirical reality of accelerating sea level rise. Apparently, you lack the intellectual fortitude to study and understand expert analysis and explanations.

At no point in time at all are there counterclockwise winds expected to push extra water INTO Tampa Bay from the storm. None, zilch, nada, and no wind model indicates any of this, as the storm remains South or at equal latitude for far too wide of a distance before it ends up north of it.

Keep on displaying your ignorance and throwing around insults at people who live here.

Or… point to me at the exact day and time in the model above when you see winds from the storm blowing into Tampa Bay. I’ll help you out: there isn’t any.

By the way… the bay hasn’t refilled. Need more current pictures?

There will be no surge. As confirmed by meteorologists here too (Dennis Philips from ABC explains it in detail. Look him up, and listen, for once.) The storm will be too far for any of that to happen, and the water will just refill gently.

Currently, boats are still sitting in the sand. Get out of here with your “the bay has refilled” bs.

The water will refill gently, without a surge, because the storm will be too Far East for its winds to cause any major havoc. This isn’t at all like Irma, if that’s what you’re thinking. Wait… you don’t think. You just copy/paste without reading what you post.

This is a dumb question but do hurricanes always spin counterclockwise?


edited to add: I googled:

In fact, tropical cyclones — the general name for the storms called typhoons, hurricanes or cyclones in different parts of the world — always spin counterclockwise in the Northern Hemisphere, and spin in the opposite direction in the Southern Hemisphere.

My neighbor spent the past 2 days sandbagging and boarding up his entire home. He and his family fled to Orlando yesterday afternoon in fear of this impending DOOM that was being predicted. As of right now, we’ve experienced nothing more than light rain/wind which I am grateful for. I’ve seen worse weather on a random Monday afternoon during rainy season.
