Water should be fine here. More people coming over to my house now due to surge.Stay safe brother!
Not only do you have to worry about the rising waters, but very strong winds as well.

I've heard lots of people are parking a vehicle perpendicular to the garage, my only concern is the giant palm tree in the front yard falling on my 5.0. I'm thinking about putting it in the backyard with 6 foot privacy fence all around, I'm torn??
I don't have plywood up either and many of my neighbors don't as well.
I agree the local ABC,NBC,CBS, and Fox affiliates have been live since late last night with constant coverage. And yes the Interstates are now North only.Just picked up my last food supplies from our restaurant. I'm up in North Orlando currently and have been here before for several of these...Never have I seen someone handle it as well as our state has. Really confident in their proactive approach vs solely relying on post-storm aid.
I've been asking my neighbors today and they said a 25 year old Palm is gonna have a serious root system compared to many other types. I know for sure the garage door is a weak point in my structure. Looks like the Coyote is gonna be next to it with a cover on.I'd bet the tree does better than the fence.
What do you know I said earlier that most didn't do plywood, this afternoon my next door neighbor put some up and the house behind me, but still a lot don't have it. At about 5 pm the first wind bands were already gusting over 40mph here in Clearwater, I can attest to that I got blown off my ladder sawing overhanging tree branches, I was suspended 10 feet in the air like tarzan doing a pull up, the ladder tipped over on the ground got a nice tree bark burn on my forearm, haha..If I had to guess, I'd say 25% of my neighbors have boarded up. We ended up getting lucky and scored enough to do the windows in our master bed/bath and had a couple of friends hang things up.
Hurricane prep businesses will boom in FL after this.
I'm in Largo, a town in the St. Pete/Clearwater area. If I still have cell service I'll give everyone a play by play from the closet adorned in my hockey equipment.. All the local weather experts say expect to stay in a safe room for at least 6-8 hours, Man that's gonna be rough and scary.One of you guys put together a list of who is in that area.
