8:30 EDT Sat:
over 75,000 without power out of the 6.4 mil or so in the evacuation zones as tornadoes form. Over 5 million expected to lose power. Some for days.
Over 75,000 people now in 385 shelters with late comers standing in line to get in as more shelters are activated. There is no shortage of potential shelters, but limited volunteers to manage them. There comes a point where the shelters in active storm areas have to close to protect the people inside.
Irma is twice the geographical size (roughly 1/3 of Texas) of Andrew which killed 40 people in Florida in 1992.
Tampa was last hit in 1921 with a population of 10,000, now 3 million. Add to that evacuees from the S part of the state.
