I'm not in a tsunami zone in LA (I'm about 100' above sea level). But I have eyed a tall building on a hill above me just in case the water is coming up fast. But then again that kind of tsunami would probably be a civilization-destroying asteroid.
The one that killed the dinosaurs was supposedly 6 miles in diameter and flash boiled everything, created 1000 MPH winds, 300 ft tall waves, and the blast of rock left orbit.

Nah.
Not disputing that financial isn't a reason though. Folks overestimate their abilities and underestimate the disasters at the doorstep. Folks are stubborn, don't want the hassle, wish to protect their property and prefer to try to ride it out.

How do you think being there is going to protect your property from a Hurricane? It's not some unruly dude throwing rocks.

I'm just getting back online from Helene in North Central Florida ( just north of Gainesville ).

Seems we may be lucky on this one.

Are they going to steal the 5 ft of sand inside of it?

A cat 5 hurricane directly hitting Tampa is gonna be Katrina levels of bad.

It's projected to downgrade to a 3 before it reaches land.

I blame all the chemicals from food, plastic containers and the air we breath. All that shit messes with hormones and overall body chemistry.

I'm not sure why. It's probably just like the YMCA.

I have a nephew down there in college. They closed the campus and he GTFO.

Of course my sister in law had to melt down and shit saying flights out were $1,000. I told her to go to Atlanta and get a flight back. Magically she found a cheaper flight out of a big city and all is well with the world.

Lord help me as the wifes parents age.

It was already down to a 4 this morning.

That is NOT me discounting the destruction that a CAT 3/4 hurricane can & will bring.
