The current NHC forecast shows the right side of Hurricane Ian covering the entire Tampa Bay area, maximizing onshore winds that push water inland, CNN reported. That increases the chances of a storm surge on the upper end of the forecast — 10 feet of water rushing into communities along the bay.
“This is a near worst-case approach angle coming in from the south and west and stalling,” Jamie Rhome, the National Hurricane Center acting director, told CNN. “With it slowing down, this would be a near-worst case approach angle.”

Anyway… it seems some folks on Reddit are realizing the absurdity of the law and trying to demonstrate it in the most internety way possible. Michael Vario alerts us that the r/PoliticalHumor subreddit is “messing with Texas” by requiring every comment to include the phrase “Greg Abbott is a little piss baby” or be deleted in a fit of content moderation discrimination in violation of the HB20 law against social media “censorship.”

New update on Ian shows a possible direct hit as a major hurricane on Tampa and then a slow direct hit on Orlando, potentially maintaining hurricane strength the trowel time. This could be a really bad one.
So is it going to hit the villages or nah

He was probably just an amoral opportunist the whole time.
Potentially at Tropical Storm Strength by then, yes.
Well at least everyone in the villages has a new roof

In my experience roofers are the nut low of home contractors. Just unscrupulous scam artists almost every one of them. Also a ton of alcoholism for some reason.

I have definitely noticed that roofers are all over the place when it comes to quotes and advice, which is consistent with your “scammer” theme. When I’ve dealt with getting quotes from other people there’s a range but more consistency. Roofers are like: Roofer 1 - I can patch that up this afternoon for $500; Roofer 2 - I will need $40,000 to replace your whole roof.
