Well, it's been a rough summer and my wife and I are in need of some serious beach relaxation. We are due to arrive in Sarasota on Sunday 8-27 and leaving 9-1.
Of course there is a tropical depression with the potential to be a category 1 hurricane coming right at the gulf. The outer edge of the lowest predicted track looks like it will glance Sarasota.
I've been told that category 1 hurricanes are just another day in Florida and the people don't even evacuate for these. I don't know how that translates to trying to catch some rays on the beach.
If the hurricane lands up by Panama City, should I still expect dangerous surf and winds 300+ miles south in Sarasota? If we decide not to cancel, would a Gulf coast hurricane cause issues on the Atlantic side if we drive across the state?
