Not a puff of breeze coastal Daytona. I have been through ten hurricanes here. This is bizarre. By now we should have gusts at 20 mph. We have nada. [/quote] Right? I’ve only been here in FL since 2008 but this is ominous, strange, it’s incredibly quiet, clouds look off. I’m probably overthinking it but I took my dog to the park earlier and got an eerie vibe although I did see two huge, beautiful butterflies. A Monarch and a black/yellow striped one. A butterfly or bumblebee always makes me smile! The lakes were pretty calm too. The calm before the storm? Or nothing....who knows anymore. There was also a drone above, really high, following the power lines so probably Google Maps or something? Ugh. Can we go back to the era before cell phones? [/quote] It has a completely different feel than before most storms. Now we have a tiny onshore breeze, but the trees aren't moving. Almost seems CGI. [/quote] Completely agree. I used to live in Mel Beach and could get a better feel for the weather. I’m in Central FL now but still, this has a weird, ominous vibe. I’m sure all the doom is clouding our judgment but it still has a “je ne sais quois” ya know what I’m saying? We’ll most likely wake up tomorrow and be fine. [/quote]

I think it's just gonna skirt the coast. Just some 72yo Floridian intel for you: That current from Tampa bay. If it's going out when the storm passes we're all good. If the tide is coming in, we might have a small problem.
That said. It's a cat 1. No one should really give a shit unless your place floods. Also old oak trees.
Anyone in Largo or Clearwater need any help after the storm, holler and I'll see if I can be of service.
