Let me tell you this. They had about the same number of people that refused to evacuate Mexico Beach for Michael. Now, they list the official Death Toll in Bay County as (19) but I have been told by many people who would have first hand knowledge, that there were over 100 bodies found in Mexico Beach in the days after. FEMA had two refrigerated 53 ft. Semi Trailers there for the recovery. There will be the same kind of situation in Cameron...I just don't understand how people think they can roll the dice in a situation like this.
People are complex and have all kinds of reasons they make the choices they do. I wonder if anyone's done a study of the people who stay, or of their loved ones who survived. It would be interesting for sure.
I remember a study in FL and a key reason was pets. Shelters that accept pets were scarce and people would not abandon their furry friends. As a result Brevard County made more accomodations for pets, though still not adequate.

Solidly outside the cone through Cuba. Unusual to see the NHC miss like that, although based on the cone definitions we should see it fairly often

They were doing it pretty much without models and the ridge just kept building in stronger and further south. Crazy a few days ago we were in the cone here in Florida and now it’s hitting Louisiana
