It’s usually good to be the initial target, because the track almost always changes. I’m out of town but my wife is at home in Sarasota and I almost had here go south to stay with friends in ft Myers. They live on Whiskey Creek just off the Caloosahatchee which is now ground zero. I would have never lived that move down. Lol
Reported tornadoes everywhere up north.
I was at the beach in Bonita with my buddy that stayed back to save what we could while listening to the am weather radio when they reported the National weather service over in Miami reported 175 mph winds before the anemometer failed.
We jumped in the truck and started to head south as it came across the Peninsula.
There were areas of asphalt out in Goodland where Andrew came through that were abraded by cat5 tornadoes .

The back bay will be filled in with all that light silt sand fort Myers beach has .

Seen a video on fake book, streets flooded but building looked good. But all depends on what gets washed out like you said.
