The entire Florida Peninsula has begun to experience Hurricane Irma following landfall at Marco Island. Thousands of Floridians who evacuated the Atlantic cost to Gulf Coast areas found their safe shelter under direct threat from Hurricane Irma as the forecast shifted W Friday night and Saturday.

Check out windy.com. E.g., https://www.windy.com/?28.200,-82.200,7.

The three numbers after the question mark are the location of the center of the map (latitude and longitude) and the zoom level (higher numbers are tighter zoom).

I hope you are doing ok down there. Probably kinda scary, but you will handle it. Holler if I can help, and ping me when all is well. Stay safe.

Interesting, thanks. Covers state, better shows actual conditions. Heavy wind gusts, trees making sounds trees shouldn’t make.

[nfldgirl]

That looks like it’s moving NE instead of WNW. Am I seeing that right?

[eastforker]

No, look here for a better look.

Jacksonville here. We lost power at 12:24 am. Sounds like tropical storm force winds are with us.

[WorkerbeeCitizen]

am ok thank you

[nfldgirl]

Incredible storm. We live in the NW-upstate area of SC. Expecting wind and rain for next 24 hours.

[Maskot]

I am. No power. Cell on LTE. Waiting for it to get light out to assess damage. I hope your loved ones are safe.

I looked at at a few wunderground stations around there — most weren’t reporting wind speeds for Sunday but one did show a max of 80 mph. So I believe 100 MPH gusts were possible in nearby locations.

I looked at the National Hurricane Center. They reported a maximum sustained wind speed for Sebring of 59 m.p.h. The highest that the NHC reported for anywhere in Florida was 88 m.p.h. at Naples. I don't think reports of 100 m.p.h. winds in Sebring are credible.
