Hi from Tampa! This one is going to be a doozy. My favorite tracking site is: www.windy.com I think it relies upon the European Model more than others, and it's been spot on so far. You can slide the bottom bar along to see where the storm will be in hours or days future. It's gonna be a long night here. I just hope the power will last long enough to play some good pinball during the worst of it.

So far, so good here. Lots of limbs down and one Oak tree on a neighbor's house, but so far, we've fared better than I feared. Not as much rain as I expected thus far and by some miracle, we still have power, despite outages all around us. That said, it's going to get a little closer to those of us in Tampa's Eastern Burbs over the next few hours.
