MattPetrulli Posted September 28, 2022 Share Posted September 28, 2022 Man I thought SE eyewall degrading and north wobbles could spare Cape Coral area a little, but SW eyewall decided to wrap in and probably is gonna deliver some really bad surge Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MANDA Posted September 28, 2022 Share Posted September 28, 2022 Entire eye almost completely inland now. Maybe another 15-30 min. NW eye wall still looking vicious. Western and southwestern eye wall still yet to move onshore. Should do so over the next 30-60 min and Boca Grande to Sanibel could take it on the chin again. Water still being pushed onshore south of the eye near Fort Myers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tiger_deF Posted September 28, 2022 Share Posted September 28, 2022 Really serious situation with my extended family... last I heard from them 20 minutes ago the water was up to their necks in their house in the Royal Woods neighborhood of Ft. Myers, and they are too old and weak to swim for a higher building. How much more is the water expected to rise? The eye should be over them now based on radar, how long before Ft. Meyers gets the backside of the storm? If they have some time maybe they could float to somewhere more elevated... Any information would be really appreciated, I am extremely worried and my stepfather is in hysterics. 2 27 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beanskip Posted September 28, 2022 Share Posted September 28, 2022 Surge pictures are incredible. Watching CNN right now with Bill Weir in Punta Gorda currently in the eye.
