Fearful residents flee Tampa Bay region as Hurricane Milton takes aim at Florida coast

Fearful Florida residents are streaming out of the Tampa Bay region ahead of what could be a once-in-a-century direct hit from Hurricane Milton.

Edit: Just found this graphic. Tampa could very well be fucked on a Katrina level without any levees breaking.

        Sorry about the error of switching from ft to m.

        But still 5 ft above an average tsunami is a large increase. I’d be surprise if most coastal cities could handle that

      Nobody said 5 m above anything, the original comment was 5 ft above the average tsunami. So 15 ft total which isn’t quite 5 m but it’s close ish.
