Tampa Airport (TPA) is suspending operations Tuesday at 5:00PM.
Stay safe, y’all! I do not envy anybody along the coast that might endure this hurricane.
I was “fortunate” enough to go through Hurricane Jeanne, but I was in Clermont which is high ground. And I think it was at category 1 most of the time during that pass, so while it uprooted a lot of trees, the homes in the area were built to withstand such a hurricane.
Had I known that Jeanne was going to do a 270 degree loop in the Atlantic and cross back into Florida that year, I might have stayed home in Tennessee. But at least I got that experience. And I wasn’t in a bad location.
