With the pinhole center of Milton steadily (albeit slowly) tracking a bit south of due east this morning, Tampa Bay area may dodge a major strike once again (keeping the 100+ yr streak alive). With the east track carrying past tip of Yucatan before the forecasted turn northeast, ATM I'm thinking landfall just south of Sarasota near Siesta Key with exit into the Atlantic just south of the Cape.
I'm sorry, but this myth just offends me. I have lived in North Tampa since the mid 70's and there were plenty of storms that hit us. Yeah, maybe they didn't completely wipe out the city (as some ghouls seem to want), but there has been flooding, major damage, power outages and loss of life. Anyone who supports this 100 year myth is usually a real estate speculator. If sitting in the dark listening to tree parts hammer your storm shutters all night is "dodging" the storm, then I'm out.
