If you live near or around sea level, especially in the Tampa Bay area, you can not survive the forecasted storm surge by accident. This is not a joke. I know you may have lived in Florida your whole life and been through dozens of hurricanes, but it only takes one you aren’t prepared for. As a result of having narrowly avoided multiple severe hurricane impacts over the past 100 years, the Tampa Bay area has been built up with little consideration for the fact that it eventually would be hit. The only regional trauma center is at sea level and on an island.
Do not play with your life.
Also do not accidentally dox yourself on this post
Remember though the CEO of Google said climate change can’t be stopped so why not generate an AI waifu with 50 tits before the category 10 (new one we added) storm comes and kills you?
Can’t wait till 2027 when the “Great White Spot” forms as a megahurricane that just squats over the gulf and lasts for the next 5 centuries.
step away from the lathe
The lives of the global population living at sea level is a small price to pay for our beloved shareholders
Tampa General has a 15ft wall they put up. curious to see if that’ll be enough with a head on collision this time.
I hope anyone here from Tampa and whatnot will stay safe. Not even going to attempt at being funny and fail as usual with this as I’ve seen the amount of water (let alone wind) do for damaging an area.
Hahahahhahahaa i hate this this is terrifying.

Stay safe out there everyone
Is it even viable to live in Florida anymore
Yes, Hurricane Ian caused $60 billion in insured losses and Florida’s gross state product is $1.64 trillion (3.6 percent of GDP).
As natural disasters increase you’ll probably see a lot of insurers pulling out and raising premiums even further, then government funding for reinsurance and possibly insurance only provided to properties that meet particular standards of natural disaster resistance.
No.
If it hasn’t happened already then after this hurricane season there will not be a blade of grass that isn’t zoned for flooding and in this state all flood zoned areas MUST be insured. And that insurance is expensive and rising. Some people pay more for flood insurance than for their actual mortgage.
I lived in Florida almost my entire life until 2 months ago
No, it’s not. The whole state should be doing a slow, permanent evacuation. It’s too hot, too wet, and the hurricanes are only getting worse. It’ll be getting wet bulb events every July and then wiped away by hurricanes every October.
2 in a row basically. Someone really angered Huracan. If there is a third, they may need to start offering up sacrifices to the the storm god. Maybe CEOs against climate change.
We could sacrifice some right now, just in case…
