Nearly the whole state will be under water, even the structures which survive the Cat 4 winds. Irma will be sucking up a lot of hot energy and water in the day it spends passing by Andros Island in the Bahamas (water there is 90+ F.)
This storm dwarfs Andrew (the most destructive Florida hurricane in US history destroying or damaging 185,000 structures and costing nearly 27 BILLION dollars) because of its geographical size, storm surge and rain content. It will not quickly fizzle out hitting the coast.

Prepare don't panic. This storm is a wind event, not a rain event. Watch this video all the way thru for some good honest info on the hurricane. All Florida will
NOT be underwater. That's bad info to spread panic.

Florida has the
WORLD"S best canal and water system to get rid of any possible floods. If you live west of I95 it's much safer. We live close to Darci.
Say safe on your trip as I95 and the expressway are parking lots. Where I live it would take 7 hours to reach the Florida Georgia border on a normal day. So with the jams now it might be 2 days lol
