I was watching a Tampa tv station this morning, and they were actually recommending moves like that, from zone A and B to zone C and D. I think they have calculated the worst case scenario for storm surge (probably in the case of a direct hit as opposed to the forecasted glancing blow) and feel they won’t be calling for an evacuation of zones C and D. Even the reporters were saying they would be riding out the storm in a zone C location.My mom is in a trailer park in the Tampa area - and even though it is not in an evacuation zone at all she has moved to a friend's home which happens to be on the edge of zones C and D. I know the high winds are a big concern, but moving from an area not even in the A-E zoning into the C/D area makes me more nervous.
Every news broadcast I have seen the last two days says this storm will have big wind issues, not big rain issues like Ian and Nicole. I am glad your mom was able to get out of her trailer and into a more substantial structure. Trailers are no place to be in the wind.
