Yes, conventional wisdon is to trailer the boat to somewhere unaffected by the storm, that always sounds good but: a) I don't have a trailer and b) the cone of the storm covers most places where I would store th boat and those places are full. I'll remove the cover and the Lowrance equipment and secure everything else, bimini top stays on but strapped down. And, I'm 130' above the 100 year flood plane.
As to location, wife and I have just about had our fill of central Florida, the influx of people and congestion has us longing for the rural house we had in Virginia. The traffic and crime are increasing yearly; we'll see I guess. Thannks. |

Well, Hillsborough County just ordered an evacuation of the coastal areas around Tampa.

If they are even remotely thinking about it, they should leave AS SOON as possible, during IRMA the few routes out of the state where gridlocked to the point people were having "pickup" flag football games in the medians..

A slow moving cat 4 to your west won't be fun. Stash a chainsaw and flash light and inflatable boat w/ life jackets in the attic. Cut your way out. Take lazy river inland. Watch out for sneks and gators.

Have to know where you live, if it floods, house is old and will blow away, known issues with roads and power. Then know how prepared you are and base evac decision based on those factors.

Glad I'm on fairly high ground and my apartment complex is on the same grid as the Hospital not too far away.
