Newest track has it trending to the east more. Hurricane Watch is now in play with Pinellas, Hillsborough, Pasco. I get a feeling that Idalia may end up going more to the east, like maybe up I-4. Based on Current models Tampa, CLearwater, and St Pete and Beach may start feeling the effect early tuesday evening with winds 60-80 mph (with higher winds along the coast). Remember the models are not always accurate and hard to predict. Its best to keep informed and be prepared for the worst. Like Denis Phelps says.... #7 Dont freak out!
