Never underestimate how dangerous and destructive, how long life disrupted by hurricanes. Even if nothing happens to home and family, can be forced to live like camping for who knows how long. Even if I don't practice camping, I've had to buy almost everything as if I do, and can't have the best kind of permanent automatic generators in condo complexes, because can't have anything permanent that runs on any kind of gas or gasoline, for safety reasons why. Everything electric powered, and up on concrete reinforced stilts even into the ground surrounding the wood poles. Literally hurricanes can blow away the building and the concrete reinforced stilts would remain. That's what hurricane shutters prevent from happening, because prevent impacts against the windows. Broken windows, means roof flies off. I wish we had protection of the water facing garage areas, because as it stands, everything down there could be washed away with storm surge. That's why I was checking out what using to protect hospitals in Tampa FL. It's as if lift to keep water out, but could be solar panels, because just white pebbles stones and sidewalk in front of the garage area wall that faces the water.

Thanks a lot for the support!

Seriously, he's consistently the best source of information, and because he's explaining the effects of the weather patterns on the storm, I feel more confident in what he says than main stream news. I wish he had a bigger national platform to share his observations and insight.

​@@RandallLowetxno doubt if he had a bigger platform his delivery and style would also change to cater to that larger crowd. Be careful what you wish for. I have no problem finding him on yt.

@@Ty91681 I know you're probably right, but my idealist mind hopes it wouldn't.

Glad to see folks from the Mississippi Gulf Coast watching! Grew up in Long Beach, knew too many people who got caught off guard in dangerous situations.

Levi has grateful fans all around the ATL... 😊

I think Ian was originally going to Big Bend, but as it progressed, that kept moving down the coast. Until it finally settled on Charlotte Harbor. The official forecast track was more like a delayed actual track.

Yes... Going to check in there (YCC) this evening to see what's happening with preps in FL and Bermuda.

Unfortunately I work full time, and past midnight eastern time, so next video will be around noon tomorrow eastern time

Central Floridian here too, it seems like it would be a nice night for a picnic! Very calm and not so unbearably hot for the first time in a while 😅

Me too!

In Outer Banks watching too

No swag yet! Maybe in the future 😉

Well where would they issue evacuations, other than some flood prone areas? It's coming ashore in a less populated area and will be gone by late Wednesday, early Thursday. It's not a cat5 like Ian.

I heard last night Tampa has protection from Indian burial grounds that protect it. Not scientific but it could be.

@@reginaangell5327 I highly doubt that

all you can do is get prepared because there's no telling what mother nature is gonna do.

Don't worry I know it isnt easy but if you watched the progression of Ian last year the euro never budged from where it was. The gfs unreliable ones said panhandle but euro always stood pat where Ian landed a few days ahead. Now the euro is standing pat in the big bend area

It has a shortcoming that leads it to cause an unrealistically large heat flux off the ocean, fueling hurricanes too much in that model. It is not useful for hurricane forecasting

@@Tropical-Tidbits how can a shortcoming like that potentially be fixed?

It’s still days away

Doesn't have time to strengthen too much beyond cat3. It'll be zooming.

@@sandrabentley8111 cat 3 at 111 or a high end cat 3 that is a huge difference i still think this could be a low end cat 4 there have been examples of storms going from a tropical depression to a cat 4 in less than 24 hours

@@sandrabentley8111 it will be getting stronger right until it makes landfall as water temps are extremely hot in the gulf

I wondered that but it appears the models are taking that into account.

@@TheNickhammondBecause up till now the models kept it weak. Even the track now says only 3. But if it reaches 3 or more shortly after passing Cuba then maybe more eastward. That's what happened with Ian.

I'm not a good source for details on local impacts. You can find the information you seek from NWS Tampa: www.weather.gov/tbw/

Miami is on the east coast
