Man, that has to hurt. It's a very tough situation. I will be praying for you guys. 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

My thoughts go out to everyone in it's path. Stay safe out there. I am a hurricane Ida survivor here in Lafourche Parish, Louisiana

I like this guy!!!! He’s direct no BS

I am from the state of Maryland and people need to pray for our neighbors to the south because I think this is going too be a bad storm.

Paul, you are the best weatherman I have seen this year. You are a credit to the profession to be honest. Thanks man keep us posted. What a great explanation of this storm, thanks again.

Well my recent move to tampa from jersey could have waiting a little longer I guess….

Prayer Changes Things

Could you also please address cities such as Venice and Sarasota? We're always glossed over. EVERY city and town and unincorporated area in the path of a storm should rightly be included in the focus of the forecast. Or is it just me? Thank you.

PRAYING FOR ALL IN THE PATH. ITS A RAIN MAKER AND WIND. FAMILY IN PUERTO RICO IS STILL WITHOUT POWER AND NEED WATER. THEY NEED HELP.

I live in Tampa bay (new port richey). We haven’t had anything crazy since Irma in 2017. That was a cat 1 when the eye went over me and it caused so much damage in my area

So, Pinellas county looks screwed...

Michael was a cat 5 when it made landfall in the panhandle 160 mph winds which is as powerful as a strong F-2 tornado or a week F-3 borderline F-2 is up to 158 mph so like a huge strong EF-2 tornado for wind damage comparability but who knows how much rain this booger will put down!!

I have a feeling that this hurricane gunna knock out the lights in Florida

OK .. But I remember last year.. the "Most active season Hurricane season" Ever... Right ?.. Where I Live in Florida there was not enough wind to Fly a Kite and had to water the Plants the next day...

Pray now for strength in this time of stress.

American models are always wrong, follow the European.

Man, maybe this won't be a historic storm, but after seeing video of those 40ft waves of Fiona wipeout a neighborhood in Atlantic Canada this past weekend - you do not want to be caught unprepared if you live along the Gulf coast of FLA.

If Trump was president... he could divert this hurricane with a sharpie.

I trust you guys more, other news stations are saying something different than what you guys are saying.

Use the European model it’s far more accurate then the gfs model. Everyone stay safe out there everyone. Take this storm serious and be prepared.

I'll have to evacuate I'm in a trailer by the water 25 miles from Tampa 😭

All the other kids with their pumped up kicks better run better run. Outrun my gun

The European model got this storm track locked in it’s not budging and I’m not liking the looks of it

It can't be a paradise without hurricanes. They come hand in hand.

I worry about this as my Mom lives in Largo! THe European models tend to be the most accurate!

I'm going to ALASKA!!! Can't be too safe!!!😮

I AM THE STORM THAT IS APPROACHING!!!!!!!

EVERYONE GET YOUR BEER

its officially time to panic, put on a helmet and freak out

I live on the Cotee River New Port Richey... The river's high on a normal day I can't imagine what this is going to do everybody say a prayer and stay safe

The internet can make as many jokes as it wants about the hurricane and Florida but it’s gonna hit me and many others hard as hell and it’s not funny

It's gone rain!!!

So it sounds like it’s trending a tropical storm, cat 1 or cat 2 for Tampa

I just don't understand why all our local meteorologists keep denying what the Euro has been saying for the past two days. It has not wavered of making landfall north of the Tampa area into Pasco and Manatee. The Euro has been the most accurate predictor of storms. However the meteorologist go with the American model which over the past two years has been a bit suspect. If you noticed even the American model has now shifted the storm back east making landfall somewhere north of the Tampa Bay area but not too far north. The euro is the most accurate predictor of storms and their paths. Few meteorologists have mentioned it and now you can see they're dealing with the fact that it's moving more and more to the East and closer to the Tampa area.

FOX 13 Chief Meteorologist Paul Dellegatto is really good!

Cool front going thru Houston tonight....and headed east to Florida...temps are going to drop rapidly monday night and tuesday night will be in the upper 50's....will this collide with the hurricane and maybe take some of the punch out of it? The timing looks right...could sheer it off a little anyway. The humidity and dew points in Houston -Galveston are already dropping fast. The high in Houston will only be about 79 by wednesday...down from the highs the past 4 days of about 96 to 98 degrees.

Why would you start evacuation when we don't know where it might make landfall? Normally evac is implemented when we have a landfall position.

Every single New station has a completely different model path for this thing There needs to be consistency “Hurricane veterans” or not You’d think by now at least everyone would be consistent with life or death information like this

Hurricane vet here andrew survivor been through too many to name. From Miami currently I stay just east of Tampa. Here we go again SMH I guesse we will find out soon how bad it will be in my area. I predict it will hit as far as 100 miles north of Tampa and no more than 30 Mile's south of Tampa. My guess is very near port Richie Florida will be ladnfall as a low cat 3 wendsday evening.

And every weather reporter will stand in it and yell. Stay home.

Mother Nature is telling us who’s the Boss

Not my exam stress manifesting a hurricane

Missing my fox 13 in Jamaica now

My Porch Couch is Gonna have to come inside More Than Likely

I’m no expert, but I’m old and have seen a lot of these storms. They often move further west and go up the Alabama/Georgia line.

I'm shorting a 10 Delta outcome...for you options traders out there.

GET OUT GET OUT NOW!!! this has a Erie feel Katrina 😳

who would have guessed fox was wrong again lol

*HOW MANY TIMES IN THE LAST 50 YEARS HAVE THEY HIT TAMPA WHEN U SAID THEY WOULD*

Elsewhere Americans are bracing for Joe Biden's next speech

I am so scared because it my frist tim seeing a hurricane and I am in Florida

Stay in California. Stay in New York City you fools.

I love how people make such a big deal bout hurricanes. We literally live in florida during hurricane season.....

There's still a couple days to batten down the hatches and move in land. Good luck, cross your fingers Tampa. 🤞

It is a bad day today

All the Californians and New Yorkers are scared af 😆

No doubt, your in house model is competitive with the GFS and the ECMWF models, which run on some of the most powerful supercomputers on Earth.

KARMA FOR MISTREATMENT OF LEGAL MIGRANTS.

landfall is new port richey... all those trailers...

It moved to the west a bit Hurricane ( Ian ) and we just had a 6.2 earthquake in Chile

Tampanians!! Wednesday. We dine. in HELL!!

Too early to tell unless weather manip?

Lets say I am in Florida

Yeah no one knows yet. Bit let's say evacuate....ok.....where? It's on all of Florida. Right hand side would be the worst so then how does everyone run to pennsicola like basically racing the storm. Head straight to Miami....keys...the far other side if you are let's say at...Bayshore blvd

Hype

Can't get my sister to leave Kissimmee.

F Fort Myers..

Who new Trump was. Clairvoyant with that Sharpie a few years ago?

throw enough spagetti on a Map and one strand will eventually Land on the path of the storm .. Now do it with chicken bones.. Enough Bones will have the same effect ..

It's pronounced "Een". not "Ian".

I’m Andrew my brothers name is Ian,

I predict will hit between 100 miles north of Tampa down to 30 Mile's south of Tampa. My guess is near port Richie FL will be ladnfall as a low cat 3 wendsday evening.

If anyone has a company witha extra trailer and truck please I beg reach out to me. I ordered a uhaul for the morning we'll see if it's even available in the morning. I'm in Aripeka.

Tell Ronnie to go out and play in it.

US. Typhoon. Weakening

So Fox 13 has it possibly landing in Pasco, Hernando, or Citrus County. Not good for Tampa or Saint Petersburg!

Haw haw haw you may be mistaken

$20 it hits northern Florida and skates right on by Tampa.

Don’t even trust the weather on FoX

ah good, hopefully it can and will smash treasure island too !!!

Watching weather on Faux Noise. I must wonder if there is even a storm. 🤣 I’ll verify on ABC.

Don't like this guy one inch. Not up to you to call for evacuations! I won't go anywhere for a CAT 2 or 3.

What's wrong with seeking God's faith to turn this storm and shut it down how come nobody wants to pray and seek God's face are you embarrassed to see God's face

I'm so fuked

1+1+1+

Will Duh-santis fly everyone to Martha's Vinyard?

🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

Those taco remnants in the toilet do not have the same visual appeal as they did on my plate at taco bell. That is all....

He not going hit ft.pierce I'm not worry

The last 4 big storms that came through Florida have been overhyped, Stop exaggerating this weak storm. weather people suck telling the weather the last 10 years, bet they're using a weather app to tell the weather. weather people don't know crap about weather anymore, it's just 50/50 scenarios to cover them whether right or wrong they can't be blamed. I'll be standing outside filming like ive been doing for the 20years this has been happening, one year we even had a football game during the storm and no one died.

Hopefully it will distract DeSantis and he will be able to leave the Texas refugees alone.

To bad is a red state.

𝗖𝗹𝗶𝗺𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝗚𝗼𝗻𝗲 𝗠𝗮𝗱 A few days ago, the papers warned that Europe is facing the worst drought in 500 years. They described the dry and hot weather and the fires that broke out all over the continent and spoke of an apocalypse. Today, they are reporting flooding in London and violent storms in France causing catastrophic flooding, where in some places, more than an inch of rain fell in less than 30 minutes, and in Paris, a storm with 65 mph wind gusts and nearly 2 inches of rain that fell in just 90 minutes flooded the Metro. Clearly, the climate has gone mad. However, the climate did not go awry by itself, but because of our madness. Nature’s erratic behavior merely reflects our own agitation toward everything. Our growing narcissism drives us to treat everyone and everything with utter indifference to the needs of others. In fact, we even enjoy hurting others. We think that if we can use others and not see the consequences for our actions right away then there are no consequences, but there are very serious consequences for our wrongdoing toward others. In the closed system that is the world we live in, everything we do affects everything else, and that effect returns to us like a boomerang. When we pour so much negativity into the system, it becomes dysfunctional, and this summer, we are experiencing this dysfunction through the smoldering heat waves and torrential rains. If we continue to flood the system with hatred and intolerance, we will not need nuclear weapons to wipe us out; plagues, natural disasters, fires, and floods will extinguish us long before we extinguish each other. When the summer is gone, winter will come with its own perils, and lack of gas and power will wreak havoc in Europe. Eventually, we will have to accept that we cannot defeat nature; we cannot outsmart it. We will have to learn to be an integral part of nature, connected to each other and to nature. We will not survive otherwise. Since the only element in nature that has bad intentions and an exploitative attitude toward others is us, we must begin to change our relationships. Our attitude toward the rest of nature stems from our attitude toward each other. Therefore, if we are considerate toward each other, we will be considerate toward nature. It turns out that the correction of our tormented planet begins with the correction of our broken ties with one another. To mend them, we must put our heads together and discuss solutions on a global level. These solutions must be inclusive and take into account everyone's needs. At the same time, everyone must accept that they cannot receive more than is necessary, since they, too, must be considerate toward others. To get such a global initiative off the ground, there needs to be an open discussion about it all over the global media. People must know that we really are running out of time, and unless we ‎ change now, it will be too late afterwards.‎ I do not know how to keep this move clean from politics and politicians, but it has to be a ‎genuine effort to save humanity and the planet, not a ploy to take control of it. Perhaps a panel of scientists will be able to make this happen, but they, too, must work without ulterior motives.‎ I realize that this idea may sound naive, but I also realize that if we do not take global action to sincerely improve our connections, the approaching annihilation is certain and near.‎
