Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

I think a lot of people in lower-lying areas along the coast are being advised to get out. Since the rotation is counter-clockwise and it's coming up from the south, there will be a fairly impressive storm surge.

Yeah, it looks like that storm is just going to park itself (according to the latest track, anyway) right at the mouth of Tampa Bay for at least 12 hours. Maybe as long as 24 hours.

Looks like most of the spaghetti models are converging on Tampa Bay for landfall.

After clobbering Cuba Ivan's track has shifted south/east with the worst storm surge between Tampa and Bonita Beach (image at top of the page updates automagically).

Looks like as of today at 5:00pm, the track is showing landfall at Englewood Beach, FL around 02:00 am on Thursday, 09-29.

I've been watching this from a distance, and it looks like it was pretty rough on Cuba. Seems like flooding from the storm surge was the worst of it though, and I think you are pretty much away from the coast, right?
Anyway I know the next day or two are going to be rough over there, just hoping it will go over strong but fast and you'll be in the clean up phase as soon as possible.

I know you have a lot of information on tracking etc, but I've just found this YouTube channel KHOU 11 and I like the way it discusses the different models.

Well, it certainly looks like they were correct about extending the evacuation order all the way down to Naples.

Looks like the hurricane made landfall right up Charlotte Harbor around 3:00 pm today as a Category 4 storm. Wouldn't have been a good time to be on Sanibel Island or Englewood Beach for vacation as Connie and I have done many times in the past. Looks like it will be pretty ugly there through this storm. Probably would be some GREAT shelling on Sanibel afterwards, though.
We are OK up here. Just somewhat breezy, with no rain to speak of in the forecast. Matter of fact, I am watering some of the citrus trees right now. Been pretty dry here for a while now.
Connie had her port surgery yesterday, and I think she would have been OK had we had to evacuate had the storm headed this way. She is a little sore, but not disabled by the surgery. Not that I wish that storm on anyone, but I sure am glad it didn't come this way. We have had enough bad luck for the year, thank you very much.
