There's going to be a pretty strong pre-fontal non-tropical low form tomorrow or Tuesday just off the Space Coast. It's going to be driving fairly strong Easterly winds and begin some tide piling into the St. Johns river and along the NE FL coast. Then Milton is going to start re-enforcing that onshore flow with ever increasing intensity as it approaches the West coast then crosses, probably around the Cape at this time. Regardless with todays discovery of the center further south by Hurricane hunter aircraft the possibility of a landfall south of Tampa is increasing (which is great for them) but it means a much greater potential for tidal piling and inland flooding along the St. Johns (that area is more prone to west to east crossers than a hit from the East believe it or not) and coastal flooding from the Cape to even Savanah. My mother lives tight on the beach in Palm Coast and I've already made plans on driving down there tomorrow sometime should flooding there really begin to concern me.

Florida crossers are the worst because you can't hide. The best you can do is stay away from the water and hunker down somewhere structurally strong that can withstand winds upwards of a 125-150 mph (remember they are really strong in tropical tornadoes).

Sucks I know but climate change is not going away anytime soon so this shits gonna be par for the course in FL for another century at least. That's why insurance companies are bailing and I wish people (including my mother and my uncle and my brother and my father and my cousins and...well) would move inland or just leave. Retire in your home in Michigan. Stay away dammit!
