NOAA predicts that within 12 hours sustained winds will reach over 100 MPH, with a 10% chance that they will reach 125 MPH, which is classified as an F4.....wow!

Off the coast of Sarasota, Manatee, and Pinellas counties, the storm may pass 12-25 miles off the coast...there is 130 mph winds at the eye. If it continues on it's path Manatee county is in HUGE trouble!!!!!

What he said.. This badboy needs to take a turn quick, everybody blow at the same time to divert the wind direction away from Tampa.

Let's put our collective minds together and think real hard, that will be the case!
