JUST IN: Tropical Storm #Idalia is now tracking similarly to Hurricane Ian, which devastated SW Florida as a Cat4 Hurricane in 2022.
Idalia is now expected to hit Florida as a Category 3 Hurricane this Wednesday. It’s set to make landfall along the Gulf Coast of Florida.
FYI a Cat 3 has wind speeds off 111 mph to 129 mph.
SW Florida is not in a position to handle another Cat3 Hurricane. If this lands in FL as a Cat3 or Cat4, it’s going to trigger an insurance collapse in the state of Florida.

has dropped the ball and has admitted that Citizens Insurance, the state Insurer of Last Resort, is not solvent.
