re: #485 OhNoZombies!

I’m hoping that Isaac manages to stay away from Florida, let alone the RNC at Tampa. But the current tracks are all putting Southern Florida under the gun (and that would probably be followed by a Gulf Coast hit). The spaghetti models are pretty much in agreement for a path through Florida, with a bias towards the western side of Florida (Tampa) rather than hugging the Atlantic Coast.

Florida’s got to hope that the storm’s power gets reduced by crossing through Hispanola and Cuba. It would seriously suck for Hispanola: the Dominican Republic would get the brunt of the wind, but Haiti is as ill equipped to deal with any kind of natural disaster as ever. But by crossing the mountain ranges, it would disrupt the wind inflow and reduce the power as it churns towards the States.
