2001SSTBanshee Posted August 13, 2004 Report Posted August 13, 2004 (edited) Its all thats been on TV all day around here. Our local FOX station didnt show a single TV show today, all hurricane coverage. TAMPA - About a million residents and tourists were told to evacuate coastal Florida from Key West to north of Tampa I've lived here about 10 years and this is the most serious Ive seen it. No one around here is going to be riding for a few days at least. Good luck eveyone in FL, it looks like a pretty serious storm is headed our way. Edited August 13, 2004 by 2001SSTBanshee Quote
loganskinner Posted August 13, 2004 Report Posted August 13, 2004 yep. i live in lakeland, and this is definately the most serious ive seen it... dont know how its going to turn out, looks like we are going to get an asswhoopin. Quote
QuadMX Posted August 13, 2004 Report Posted August 13, 2004 Shit that sucks. I just saw some stuff today on the news about it. I'm in WI so I don't hear much about it. Looks horrible though. Hope everybody is alright down there. Quote

cam2 Posted August 13, 2004 Report Posted August 13, 2004 yeah i think this is going to suck. i've been in the bay area since '86 and this is definitly the worse that if seen it so far. i live in north Tampa and work in east Stpete, it usually takes me 25 minutes to get home but because of the evacuations in Stpete I-275 was packed and it took damn near an hour and twenty minutes to get home. i knew that the traffic would suck so i bought some liquid refreshments for the stop and go ride. good luck to everyone who may be effected and try to be safe, i hope to talk to everyone after this crap passes.

sredish Posted August 13, 2004 Report Posted August 13, 2004 I'd grab my board and head out to Clearwater. I've been through Andrew, Hugo and several other big ones just fine, I imagine the only people this will affect is the ones right on the ocean and the ones in trailers. Good luck to all of you and I hope you fair well. Scott Quote
bigboybanshee Posted August 13, 2004 Report Posted August 13, 2004 This hurricane does seem to be pretty bad, I heard this morning they raised it to a category 3 now...in case you didn't know that is 111-130 MPH winds I was looking on the weather radar and there were a few tornado vortex's floating around near the eye...Hope you guys make it through OK!

bigboybanshee Posted August 13, 2004 Report Posted August 13, 2004 I remember those days working for pizza hut, they don't give a damn what the weather is like...the worse the weather the better for them, more money in their pocket. They could care less about the drivers actually getting out in the weather.... Quote
