Tampa isn't a fish bowl that is below sea level. And people seem to be taking evacuation orders seriously. I would say between 35 and 100 is a fair estimation. The issue is property damage. Which will be obscene.

Tampa isn't the same kind of South that NOLA is. And by that I mean Tampa isn't full of low IQ niggers who lack common sense and understand "Flee for your life" isn't code for "Stay and get all the free shit from empty houses and stores"

Most people in FL have enough self preservation instinct and common sense to get the fuck away. I'd be surprised if the death toll is over 100.

I’ve been speaking with people in the industry and say long term they’re expecting more people to move to more inland locations simply because homeowners insurance with a mortgage is going to be prohibitively expensive for high risk areas.

All too the good then IMO. People shouldn't be building subdivisions on Sand Bars anyway.

a lower central pressure (measured in millibars, or mb) is associated with a stronger hurricane. This is because a lower pressure gradient between the storm’s center and the surrounding environment drives stronger winds and a more intense storm.

Key Findings

  • The lowest pressure ever recorded in a hurricane was 870 mb, measured in Typhoon Tip in 1979.
  • In general, a lower central pressure indicates a stronger storm, with the following rough guidelines:
    • Category 1: >979 mb
    • Category 2: 965-979 mb
    • Category 3: 945-964 mb
    • Category 4: 920-944 mb
    • Category 5: <920 mb
  • A lower central pressure creates a stronger gradient from outside to inside the storm system, contributing to its intensity.
Implications

A hurricane with a lower central pressure (i.e., a stronger storm) is likely to cause more significant damage and flooding due to:

  • Stronger winds, which can lead to more extensive property damage and power outages
  • Higher storm surges, which can inundate coastal areas and cause catastrophic flooding
  • Increased rainfall, which can exacerbate inland flooding and landslides
In summary, a lower central pressure (measured in mb) indicates a stronger hurricane, which can lead to more severe consequences for affected areas.
 
it's apperently going to hit within the next few minute or so ER I MEAN NOW AS I AM TYPING, 11 PM EST. I'm going to sleep, either I anuerism and isekai into a fucked up post merge world or this shit wrecks disney's asshole. Anything else and I will have to consult the orb or whatever.

Also, how do those guys fly into the hurricane without it crashing the plane?

With a surprising amount of ease. Aircraft are already designed to deal with windstreams and turbulence.

The pilots move with the air currents, and out at sea with most air traffic completely cleared out the area there aren't actually as many risks as you imagine. They can also fly above the storm and then dip in closer when ready. Hurricanes aren't devastating to aircraft as they are ships and land albeit riding through one and the associated risks are incredibly uncomfortable so commercial aircraft will completely avoid them or fly above them.
 
NHC Update says 915mb and 160mph, still a Cat 5:
