Re: SW Florida observations

I've been gathering supplies in Tampa over the last few days. Since Wednesday and Thursday there doesn't seem to be much concern among those in South Tampa. Neighborhood stores seem well-stocked. In fact, Sam's Club last night was still had pallets of generators, water, etc. and very few shoppers. Gas stations seemed a little busier than usual for a week night. Very different compared to 2004 with lines of people waiting 6-8 hours for plywood and water shipments.
