The averages for where the models show the eye to pass ... Landfall around Tampa, exiting the state through Cape Canaveral. But it's early; almost the entire state is in play, except for the Panhandle.

#Milton now forecast to make landfall as a Category 3. The center of the cone aims at Tampa.

Whatever route Milton takes over land, I hope it loses strength, but not speed, quickly. The storms that slow down over the mainland only prolong rain bands which cause major flooding.
