Hurricane Ian up to 100 mph, expected to intensify as Florida warnings issued

Hurricane Ian up to 100 mph, expected to intensify as Florida warnings issued
By Roger Simmons and Richard Tribou
Orlando Sentinel
Sep 26, 2022 at 5:43 pm

Hurricane Ian gained strength into a Category 2 system Monday afternoon with its path continuing to target Florida’s Gulf Coast including a threat to Central Florida, which is now under a tropical storm watch as hurricane warnings were issued along the coast including the potential for 10-foot storm surge in Tampa Bay.

Gov. Ron DeSantis said 5,000 National Guardsmen from Florida along with 2,000 more from neighboring states have been activated along with five urban search and rescue teams in preparation for the storm’s impact during a a press conference from the State Emergency Operations Center in Tallahassee.

“Floridians up and down the Gulf Coast should feel the impacts of this as up to 36 hours before the actual landfall due to the size of the hurricane,” DeSantis said. “This is a really, really big hurricane at this point, the diameter, the width of it’s about 500 miles wide. So you look at the cone and if you look at where they have the landfall going, I think the landfall is still Levy County, the impacts are going to be much much broader than that.”

He warned of power loss as it makes landfall across a wide breadth of the state no matter where it finally makes landfall.

“Make sure you have your plan in place,” he said.

As of 8 p.m., the National Hurricane Center puts Ian’s center 130 miles southeast of the western tip of Cuba with maximum sustained winds of 100 mph, making it a Category 2 hurricane, moving north-northwest at 13 mph. Its hurricane-force winds extend out 35 miles with tropical-storm-force winds extending out 115 miles.

Public schools and colleges are starting to make decisions about whether to close because of the storm.

A hurricane warning was issued for the Dry Tortugas and from Englewood in Southwest Florida north to the Anclote River near Tarpon Springs including Tampa Bay. Hurricane watches are in place from Englewood south to Bonita Beach and from the Anclote River north to the Suwannee River. A tropical storm warning is in place from Englewood south to Flamingo at the tip of the Florida peninsula and in the Lower Florida Keys from Seven Mile Bridge west to Key West.

A storm surge warning is in effect for from Anclote River south to Flamingo and all of Tampa Bay that could see the worst surge of 5-10 feet from Longboat Key north to Tarpon Springs.

Tropical storm watches are in place from the Suwannee River to Indian Pass and from Jupiter Inlet on Florida’s East Coast to Altamaha Sound north of the Florida-Georgia border, in the Florida Keys from Seven Mile Bridge to the Channel 5 Bridge and for Lake Okeechobee.

The National Weather Service in Melbourne also issues inland tropical storm watches for Lake, Orange, Osceola and Seminole counties while Polk County was also under a tropical storm watch from the NWS Tampa office.

Hurricane Ian is seen in this satellite image on Monday morning and it heads toward Florida.
“Ian is expected to remain at or near major hurricane strength as it passes near the west-central coast of Florida on Wednesday and Thursday,” said NHC hurricane specialist Brad Reinhart. “An even greater concern is the slower forward motion that is forecast during this period, as the upper trough passes north and east of Ian and the steering currents weaken. This would likely prolong the storm surge, wind, and rainfall impacts along the affected portions of the west coast of Florida, although the roughly shore-parallel track still makes it difficult to pinpoint exactly what locations will experience the most severe impacts.”

The latest track forecasts its center to be west of the Florida Keys by Tuesday evening as a major Category 4 hurricane with 140 mph winds, but begin to lose steam as it approaches the Florida coast.

By early Thursday, the storm will drop to Category 3 with 115 mph winds as it approaches Tampa, and then threaten landfall north of Tampa as a Category 1 hurricane by Thursday evening.

“You can’t be waiting to the last minute to move around or make your preparations because rain will begin to spread over the area as the storm approaches,” said acting NHC Director Jamie Rhome.

DeSantis announced in an afternoon press conference that Hillsborough County has ordered a mandatory evacuation for residents in Zone A and all manufactured housing, and a voluntary evacuation for those in Zone B. Pinellas County has already begun evacuating nursing homes, residential facilities, and hospitals. Starting 6 p.m. a mandatory evacuation will begin for residents in Zone A and all mobile homes. Residents in other zones are urged to find high ground, Cathie Perkins, the county emergency management director said.

Other counties will be issuing evacuation orders as well, and DeSantis urged residents to listen to their local officials and “heed their warnings.”

Seminole County officials announced plans to open eight emergency shelters at public schools across the county as Hurricane Ian approaches the Florida peninsula. After opening the sites on Wednesday, county emergency officials will then call for an evacuation of certain residents.

Residents can plug in their addresses at floridadisaster.org/planprepare to find out what zone they’re in.

“Again, there’s no need to panic,” DeSantis said.

[ MAP: Latest track for Hurricane Ian ]

The system is expected to undergo more rapid intensification today gaining strength to a Category 3 hurricane with winds of 115 mph overnight and to blow up into a Category 4 hurricane with winds of 140 mph off the coast of Southwest Florida by early Wednesday.

“On the forecast track, the center of Ian is expected to move near or over western Cuba tonight and early Tuesday. Ian will then emerge over the southeastern Gulf of Mexico on Tuesday, pass west of the Florida Keys late Tuesday, and approach the west coast of Florida on Wednesday into Thursday,” according to NHC forecasters. “Rapid strengthening is expected during the next day or so, and Ian is forecast to become a major hurricane tonight or early Tuesday when it is near western Cuba and remain a major hurricane over the southeastern Gulf of Mexico on Wednesday.”

Tropical-storm conditions are expected in the lower Florida Keys on Tuesday with the west coast of Florida potentially seeing those by Tuesday evening. Hurricane conditions are possible along the Florida west coast on Wednesday. Parts of the Florida peninsula could see 6 to 12 inches of rain with some spots up to 20 inches while the Florida Keys are expected to see 4 to 6 inches with some areas seeing 8 inches.

Storm surge along some parts of the coast could reach 10 feet, the NHC said.

“Considerable flooding impacts are possible mid-to-late week in central Florida given already saturated antecedent conditions, and flash and urban flooding is possible with rainfall across the Florida Keys and the Florida peninsula through mid week,” the forecast said. “Limited flood impacts and rises on area streams and rivers are possible over northern Florida and portions of the Southeast mid-to-late week.”

The chances for tornadoes begin late Monday and Tuesday across the Florida Keys and then into the southern and central Florida peninsula, the NHC said.

“Regardless of Ian’s exact track and intensity, there is a risk of dangerous storm surge, hurricane-force winds, and heavy rainfall along the west coast of Florida and the Florida Panhandle by the middle of this week, and residents in Florida should ensure they have their hurricane plan in place,” the hurricane center warned. “Follow any advice given by local officials and closely monitor updates to the forecast.”

The next forecast track adjustment from the NHC is scheduled for 11 p.m. Monday.

Hurricane warnings remain parts of Cuba, where significant wind and storm impacts are expected within the next 12 hours.

President Joe Biden also declared an emergency, authorizing the Department of Homeland Security and the Federal Emergency Management Agency to coordinate disaster relief and provide assistance to protect lives and property.

NASA decided Monday to roll its $4.1 billion Artemis I mission rocket back to the safety of the Vehicle Assembly Building at Kennedy Space Center.

John Cangialosi, a senior hurricane specialist at the Miami-based hurricane center, said it was not yet clear exactly where Ian will hit hardest. He said Floridians should begin preparations, including gathering supplies for potential power outages.

“At this point really the right message for those living in Florida is that you have to watch forecasts and get ready and prepare yourself for potential impact from this tropical system,” he said.

David Sharp, a forecaster with the National Weather Service in Melbourne, said now is time for Central Florida residents to pay attention to Ian’s forecast.

“Stay up to date with the forecasts,” Sharp said. “Small changes in the forecast can end up making a big difference by the time it gets to us on day four or five.”

“You always want to plan for the most likely scenario at the minimum and prepare for a reasonable worst case scenario which means how bad it could get,” Sharp said. “The current forecast is what we call the most likely scenario so with that we are concerned with flooding rain, with tropical storm force winds, and hurricane gusts and tornadoes.”

As for when the Ian could have the greatest impact on Central Florida, Sharp pointed to Wednesday.

“The most likely time is Wednesday afternoon, evening about that time, so you definitely want to have things done by Wednesday morning, Wednesday afternoon the latest,” Sharp said. “Before we see the winds we are going to see rain ... so you don’t want to be running around when the roads might be flooded or there’s tornado warnings.”

“The hazards that we’re concerned most about this time is flooding rain ... also there’s a concern for tropical-storm-force winds with hurricane gusts right now,” Sharp said.

Across Central Florida, schools were monitoring Ian’s progress.

The Osceola County school district will close its campuses Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday because of the hurricane, officials announced Monday. Some Osceola campuses are needed as shelters, both for county residents and those evacuating from the coast, they said.

The Lake County school district, which already announced it was closing schools Wednesday and Thursday, said Monday afternoon it was also canceling classes on Friday. To find out what school districts are closing schools, go to FLDOE.org/storminfo.

Bethune-Cookman University, a private historically Black university in Daytona Beach, announced a mandatory campus evacuation beginning Monday at noon with no return date set yet and students in residents halls were encouraged to evacuate as soon as Sunday.
At B-CU classes will be moved online only on Tuesday, according to a letter by the Office of Academic Affairs on Saturday.

At the University of Central Florida, campus will remain open through Tuesday with classes canceled Wednesday-Friday and campus closed Wednesday and Thursday.

Rollins College in Winter Park, will announced the campus will close at 5 p.m. Wednesday; with residential halls to close at 4 p.m. Wednesday, and all staying closed Thursday and Friday for damage assessment.

The University of South Florida in Tampa is closing the campus beginning Tuesday with classes not resuming until Oct. 3.

Florida State University and the University of Florida are continuing to monitor the storm before announcing any changes to campus operations or classes, according to their official social media pages.

Both universities ask their students to plan and prepare as well as ensure they are up to date with their university’s emergency alert system.

The tropical outlook as of 8 a.m. Monday, Sept. 26, 2022. (National Hurricane Center)
Elsewhere in the tropics, forecasters have upped the odds of an area of low pressure with shower and thunderstorm activity several hundred miles west of the Cabo Verde Islands.

A tropical depression is likely to form during the next couple of days before upper-level winds become less favorable toward the end of the week.

The NHC gives if a 70% chance to develop into the next tropical depression in the next two to five days.

Staff writer Jeffrey Schweers and The Associated Press contributed to this report.

Here we go! Windows are just about boarded up, I just have to do the sliding door in my backyard. Last year we were talking about how some you pay attention to and some you know you don't have to worry about...well this one I've been watching closely. This thing is like Irma in that it is massive. My house took a lot of damage in that one. Even if you don't get hurricane force winds, there will be a lot of rain and flooding. It keeps tracking closer and closer my way. A few days ago it was expected to be a Cat 1 hitting Tampa, now it is showing be a 3 hitting closer to Sarasota. I'm fairly inland but it will still be a Hurricane when it hits me, and currently the path keeps shifting more and more my way. My parents went to pick up my Grandma this morning at 7am and they already had the roads closed and they had to prove where they were going since she is in a mandatory evac zone.

So far I'm still going into work today and tomorrow. We shall see how long it goes before they shut down.

My mother snowbirds in Florida, north of Tampa about 40 miles. Thankfully she’s not there now but she owns a small trailer with a carport. We hope everything makes it but expect to get reports from her neighbors that the carport is destroyed. Hopefully that’ll be the only damage. There’s nothing she/we can do. We’re just hoping for the best.

Things escalated quickly. Now it's a strong category 4 bordering on category 5. All of you in the region please stay safe and heed the warnings.

My son's mom - my ex - lives in North Port. Probably about half way between Coral Gables and Tampa. They're getting in trouble with water coming in. My son is worried, and I understand that. They (ex and her money pot) just put their house up for sale.

Well the worst is past us, luckily it stayed more South than expected. I just processed down over 100’ of tree branches for pickup. Some of the fascia got ripped off but the roof looks good at first glance. Lost power at 12:30 this morning and it is still down.

My mom’s place made it through unscathed. The storm tracking away from Tampa the way it did was the saving grace for her.
I have a buddy just south of Kissimmee. Was right in the path. He hunkered down with his wife. I haven’t heard from him since yesterday. Just hoping he’s fine.

We made it through, luckily no major damage just a few pool screens.

The islands are devastated. Fort myers beach obliterated, I'm about 10 miles east of there as the crow flies.
Communications are very spotty, very little cell coverage, no power, no internet.

2-3 hour waits for gas, supplies, etc

Hope all the other Florida Dawgs are ok as well.

Here we go again! This storm on its own isn’t that big of deal…this storm so shortly after Ian on the other hand could be a lot more dangerous. Areas are still flooded, some roads just recently reopened. In most areas, debris hasn’t been picked up yet. I’m surrounded by piles of vegetation debris.

On the plus side, I should be hearing back any day now on my insurance claims from Ian. Hurricane deductibles are based on seasons, not specific storms, so any additional damages didn’t restart the deductible.

That is what people don't understand until they have been in hurricane land. It's like that hard hitting storm front that hits hard, blows down a few trees, dumps a ton of rain, but rather than move through in 20 minutes, it lasts for a few hours or more.

Yeah Ian lasted over us for 6-7 hours of 100+ mph winds, and into the night and next morning with gust in the 80+ mph range. 12 hours of hurricane force winds and gusts.

With winds like that, you can literally feel, and see, the house "breathing". Even with the shutters tight, the sliding glass doors bowed in and out 1-2" with the winds passing over the house. At times the pool was 6" higher at one end than the other from the wind.

I've been through many storms, but the worst parts only last 3-4 hours typically. Ian was so slow as and just went on and on, and when you have no power and your conserving battery, your news updates are sparse. Even then, the news mostly focuses on the front of edge of the storm, so you have no idea how long you're going to be in it.

Hey Bubba...seriously, a standard part of your basic hurricane plan is a wind up radio. Most are rather cheap looking and aren't the best radios, but in a pinch they work wonders.

You know the drill on what you need to have stocked or stock a bit in August. Put a wind up radio in that tub of gear. Most have some sort of LED on them as well and port to put some charge in a cell phone..

Have, or had, one...The crank shaft snapped off after a couple uses.

We have an OLD, am/fm battery radio which we used. I also had a PC battery, 24" smart TV linked to my phone for internet and streamed some news until cell towers went out (first that's ever happened in a storm). Then I pulled out the hurricane kit emergency antenna hookup, but even that the signal was very spotty.

Be sure to check the AM band. Back in the day a series of clear channel 50,000 watt stations were established where you should be able to pick up one anywhere in the country. You don't have to worry about transmission and amplifying towers like you do on FM bands. Orlando probably has one that you should be able to pick up anywhere in the state.
