Just wanted to thank you for such a detailed and easy to understand description of what SW Florida is facing. My prayers go to those in the area.

Im from Puerto Rico. We know how devastating hurricanes are. Praying for all the people that will be affected by this.

Wow almost 20 inches of rain. Takes us 3 years to get that much here in Phoenix AZ.. good luck Florida folks..

Fort myers here! Stay safe fellow Floridians! 🙏🏼🙏🏼

All the people who just moved to Florida are freaking out. Stay strong Floridians. 🙏🇺🇸

Dave is best at explaining the storm !!!

He is fabulous and so into it… this is a meteorologist’s dream.

Calm, cool and collected. Thank you for your report without fear mongering.

WOW! a category 4? ..... Everyone in that area, please be safe.

May God be with all if you in the storm..Lord i ask that you look over the peope in the path of ian. I ask that you put your hands around them and keep them safe. Lord thank you all you do for us daily. In Jesus name we pray amen

You don’t ride out a cat 4 or 5 if you are anywhere near the water, that includes rivers that feed into the gulf and of course any one near the beach or in a mobile home anywhere. Get to safety folks looks like it’s coming right at me in Bartow. Prayers up! Stay safe! Get to higher ground the storm surge is going to be biblical.

well done weather reporting. one of the best I've seen.

I’m brother down there fixing power lord protect him and everyone there 🙌

bruh these weather people have been soooo INACCURATE about this hurricanes path for a week now

Finally, A Meteorologist who KNOWS The Story is NOT About Him!! Really Detailed and Professional, Rare Nowadays

Dave, that was an amazing explanation!! Prayers for everyone in Florida.

Be safe Florida!! Prayers from tennesse

Im in Daytona Beach Fl. So far just rain barely windy. Praying for my fellow Sunshine State Peoples. Stay safe everyone.💜💜

the brilliant mr Osterburg

Wow best hurricane comments and advice I've ever heard!

Don't underestimate this hurricane 🌀🌀🌀...it can change at any minute...like he said ...this is a guideline. You may believe your safe but the rain equals water then FLOODING.

Wow the clearest explanation I’ve seen thus far!

Wow! Let's 🙏 for those enduring this.

I'm not living in Tampa but now I end up watching Ian news from FOX 13 Tampa Bay.

In Hernando county so relieved it's not making landfall near us like it was projected but prayers are with all our neighbors south of here stay safe

This guy is the best.

Another good professional weather report.

My favorite meteorologist

My brother already lost his home in Cape Coral, stay safe everyone!

Excellent reporting, thanks

Ugh, the same thing that Michael did. Prayers for everyone in it's path.

This is the one y’all. I’m 33 and from here and this is my first hurricane experience lol

This is excellent reporting. The devil is in the details. Thank you.

Great meteorologist..explains very clearly without fear mongering..agree!!!!!😊

my heart grieves for these people

"Hey Ian, be thou tropical in the drink and I'll throw an umbrella in ya and we'll both toast to mother nature and say salute, yea?"

Bradenton inland west of 41, is starting to get nasty, with sustained wind gusts, continues to rain.

A good time to be in Mathas Vinyard. Thanks Desantis.

This guy’s voice is calming.

As someone living in north Fort Myers it reminds of Charlie

This friend is calming me down

Dave Osterberg for the win!

Prayers up for the families 🙏🏽

When are y'all going to update with a new video?

When do it be to Saint Augustine

Oh my God, pls help the people

Damn it's aiming right where charlie hit in 04. Hate it for the affected

Ay I remember you from watching the news before school lol. I’m 24 now

i fell like i am in the eye of the hurricane

Prayers

Damn dude,, I like you.. I was going through all the hurricane people and you was the only one that made any sense.."just the facts ma'am" You are my go-to guy, thank you very much👍👍👍👌😎💗

from st pete, this is the best weather guy in the us, and my home is Alaska were we make weather

Ft Myers and Cape Coral are absolutely devastated. It’s was so bad people. Still no power, fuel, water 🤮🤯

Thank you for the objective reporting!

It's 155mph winds now

I’m in Apollo Beach slightly south of Tampa. Pretty much our whole neighborhood is bunkered down. 🙏🏼

I’m tucked man 15ft+ surge

Good luck to everyone in the path of the storm. It's important to listen to the pro's on this subject, especially when they say leave.

This guy is a pro.

I'm in fort myers and it's getting crazy lol 😂 💪🏽

What about Naples??

Thank god I left sarasota after 30 years.. no hurricane during those years..

The eye is so large. This storm could blow apart as it hits land and dissipate rapidly as it moves inland.

Still going to hit Tampa?

I’m in Naples,8:45,if will be worse…I don’t know😢🧘‍♀️

I hope ever one is ok

Were the people in that area told to prepare or evacuate? Since it was predicted to come to Tampa people were preparing for days. Anyone watching this live where it’s making landfall now?

wow this guy is great

Like a 🌬🌀🌊 TSUNAMI......Mmmm 😲😱

This time yesterday all the reports were that it would make landfall just north of or right at Clearwater… 12 hours later, it was Fort Meyers… not long before, it was the panhandle. These storms must be very, very tricky to forecast. If it is so difficult, I would very much like to hear much less confidence in reporting by the reporters. They speak as if they know what is going to happen (with occasional caveats) but it seems like they were, in this case, just spitballing. I had an offer from someone in Fort Myers, at 7:00 yesterday morning to evacuate there… this was the thinking based on the coverage. This person, probably not alone, was offering to help because Fort Myers was not in the discussion. Maybe this sort of localized phenomenon is too difficult to forecast over 24 hour periods and I should listen, rather, to the reporting about global weather events over the next 25 to 100 years as such seem much easier to forecast and the reporters seam zealous, maybe religious, in the certainty of their reporting. Hurricanes are good for ratings though…

We're do you think this storms will end 🔚

This dude's giddy.

Stay safe

This man is very good at his job. I like his explanations.

It might hit Englewood Beach directly!! 😢I was seriously considering moving there. It’s such a beautiful little city.

Is it rain or is it the water from the ocean?

Surprised no meteorologist mentions high tide. Supposed to make landfall right at high tide which can’t be good.

I don’t know why but people who take large gulps while they talk bothers me 🙄

Great story teller I bet.

Prayers for the people affected by this monster. Please get to shelter, or higher ground if you have been told to evacuate. They wont be able to rescue you if you have to call for an emergency evac. because your surrounded by water. At least not for a few days. So go. Be safe.

This is dangerous, thanks for the report

It was not a 3 inland. No one on the ground witnessed 150 mph winds…. Strictly a storm surge/water event storm. Tropical storm almost immediately.
