Re: NHC site?

Having lived in Tampa for 50 plus years, I can tell you that 50 feet above sea level is only found in the northernmost parts of Tampa near the University of South Florida. The vast majority of Tampa is in the 4-18 foot range. The majority of the City Business District is in the Level 2-3 Evac area. We also have miles of houses next to the bays and the Hillsborough river. There are no houses below sea level, but we have numerous areas where 5-8 inches of rain will cause fresh water flooding.
