This has the potential to be so bad. Potentially the worst weather event in WDW history. Still time for things to improve, but this is not good.

That's waaaaaay too close to my house.

Nothing like seeing your apartment complex covered by this particular black line....

Or that black line is about 2 miles south of your home.

FYI, Port Tampa is now at Port condition X-RAY. I’d expect condition Yankee later today and perhaps Zulu by tomorrow evening.

Three straight days of this after two days of this a couple weeks ago. This state, man.

This is nothing. You should have been in central Florida in 2004. Google it.

UPDATE #1: HURRICANE MILTON 10/7/24 AT 11:45 AM​

Dear SCPS Families and Students,

Due to the anticipated impact of Hurricane Milton in our area, all schools will follow a regular early dismissal schedule on Tuesday, Oct. 8, 2024, and all field trips, afterschool activities, events, facility rentals, and childcare services including KidZone & Beyond and 21st Century Learning programs will be canceled.

All SCPS schools will be closed Wednesday and Thursday, October 9-10th.

We will make a determination about whether we can have school on Friday once we are able to assess the community’s need for shelters and any potential damage to our campuses. We will provide that information on Thursday.

We will continue to share updates directly with families and staff via our SchoolMessenger system, social media channels, and our website at Home - Seminole County Public Schools (scps.k12.fl.us).

Shelter Information will be available through Seminole County, and we will share this once it becomes available.
