Looks like the center of the eye will pass right over North Captiva. I hope that guy on Pine Island survives.
Good copy.
NWS Trackers have been spot-on with their landfall predictions, having called the overall Charlotte Harbor area for some time. I’d say Sanibel Island and Fort Meyers are right there in the centerline of their landfall prediction.
On the ground reporter (Eric) with Charlie Kirk’s show (RAV / Steve Bannon)... stating winds are now up to 155 mph. Getting into CAT 5 territory. Says the south-southeast side of the eyewall hasn’t even hit yet. (Within 1-2 hours; storm’s full strength arrives.)
