Key Largo hit by Euro on the 12z, Sunday morning at Cat 4, out Monday morning near Port St. Lucie as cat 3. Second landfall near Savannah at 132 hours. Goes over basically all of the S. Florida metro areas.
Population of Dade, Broward and West Palm = 6.7 million people
Per Wikipedia: Because the population of South Florida is largely confined to a strip of land between the Atlantic Ocean and the Everglades, the Miami urbanized area (that is, the area of contiguous urban development) is about 110 miles (180 km) long (north to south), but never more than 20 miles (32 km) wide, and in some areas only 5 miles (8.0 km) wide (east to west). The Miami metropolitan statistical area is longer than any other urbanized area in the United States except for the New York metropolitan area.
