For your Friday chill -Jim Cantore just landed in

[malaise]

Tampa.

1. Tampa? Continued westward shift?

Wonder where his final destination will be.

2. The storms rarely follow Jim

4. Tampa's safer to fly into right now if they're staging for landfall.

Less chance of getting in the way of evacuees.
Coming out of Tampa, he and his units would be going against evacuee traffic along with the pre-positioned recovery crews, not (on edit) interfering with the outgoing traffic.

please be safe and hunker down. My prayers and thoughts are with you all.
