Well I got a bunch of family in Ft. Meyers that finally evacuated this AM to Jacksonville. Good thing, as one aunt and uncle live in what's called a Class A area from what I understand- an area most at risk for storm surge. Their condo was built in '06 and is rated for this, but not the surge. My cousin and her wife (yeah, you read it right) are going to lose their house for sure. Built in the 60's.
I have a real bad feeling there's going to be a lot of deaths in SW Florida due to people not fully understanding how big the storm surge is going to be. Wind is one thing, but 15' of water surging miles inland in some places is just unbelievable.
