Wow, these are incredible but terrifying to see at the same time.... Especially as they move ashore.
Here are all the major hurricanes to landfall in the continental U.S. in the last five hurricane seasons.
Adding Irma & Zeta. Relatively ragged landfall eyes compared to the others.

5pm update is a trend farther west. The cone no longer includes any of Tampa Bay.
On the current forecast track, the Tampa area will see increased rain chances on Monday but if the storm stays west, we may actually be a bit drier on Tue. Stay tuned for updates over the weekend.
