Hotair Posted September 28, 2022 Share Posted September 28, 2022 Ian took a wobble East on radar that should help keep the strongest winds away from the coastal areas North of Port Charlotte (Sarasota and places North of it). Tampa Bay sure dodged a bullet with Ian 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have to imagine some severe coastal flooding all along the e south sections of the bay with the persistent northerly fetch. Significant power outages in Clearwater/St. Pete area. Around 200k so far.

All that rain has no where to go, leaving streets flooded, even away from the shore. The exact opposite. Tampa Bay emptied out. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clyde Posted September 28, 2022 Share Posted September 28, 2022 18z GFS has Ian back over water by 0z on Friday. Going to be a long night tonight, in to tomorrow for central, northern Florida in terms of rain and wind as Ian moves across. South east Florida should start to see improving conditions overnight tonight.A bit east of Orlando here. We’ve had rain nearly non-stop since around 10 last night, very heavy in the last two hours. Wind gusts are infrequent but we’ve had enough to bring a few branches down.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not surprisingly, levels are running below there as well...Though a bit less than other sites in the bay area. The generally NE wind has been running nearly parallel to the length of the bay blowing out. This isn't really a situation where the water is going to stack up or has nowhere to go, as it is just existing into the Gulf. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is in Punta Gorda, where it took a while for the western eye to come in.
