Jamaica is in for a HARD hit.

Fishhead · Sep 9, 2004

As of 11am EST, IVAN is projected to hit the FORT MYERS area sometime Monday morning...........110 miles south of Tampa and then proceeding north right into the Tampa area.

Right now, FORT MYERS and TAMPA are the major Florida cities on high alert.

I may have to evacuate on Saturday.........this crap is getting old.

Just would love to see how the grade this thing if the landfall of the eye is called "Missippi/Alabama state line".

Tekari · Sep 9, 2004

What a coincidence im flying into ft myers on friday morning and picking up a car driving up to stay with some friends in tampa and party but I will be out by sunday morning so I should be ok.

If it hits Florida it is very likely not to be a Cat 5 due to land crossing and prevailing weather patterns. Worst thing that could happen is if it goes towards the Gulf avoiding most land and then slows for a bit. That could make it one of the worst ever to hit land.

Living in Tampa, I am seriously concerned and have not planned my course of action yet.

It looks like its tracking for the Gulf after going over Cuba and hitting the Florida Gulf coast. Contract valid if at least Category 2.

Fishhead · Sep 9, 2004

The next update from the National Hurricane Center will be out at 5pm EST.

The last one had the storm headed for the Fort Myers area......which would include the Tampa area as it is only 120 miles north up the coast.
