Just called a friend that is about 10 miles north of Tampa and he said he was going to stay at one of the local shelters. I told him he better get out of the state of Florida don't even chance it.

Don't trust anything the media has to say not even DeSantis.

From coast to coast Florida is only 160 miles wide.

The width of this hurricane is over 400 miles

The trajectory is that it will dissipate once it passes Florida out into the ocean.

DeSantis you're an idiot for telling anybody in Florida to shelter anywhere near this hurricane.

You have to leave now because the roads will be so jammed with over 22 million people in that state.

Yep. People who stay always say later they wish they hadn't. It's not just the initial hell of the storm going through. It's the aftermath of no power, no water, no ac, no gas stations, no ATMs, no ice, no hot showers, etc etc. The aftermath is 10x worse and lasts 10x longer. For those who have the means, they should head north for a week or two.
