I think Gianmarc is spot on. Tampa/Hillsborough country just went live (on TWC) to call for mandatory evacuations in their vulnerable coastal areas. Even though sustained winds and gusts will be 30 mph less than Naples-Port Charlotte-Sarasota, the Tampa topography increases the potential for devastation.

Gianmarc's earlier post included this link that gives historical context to the danger. Tampa: Nation's most vulnerable area to hurricane storm surge

This features the findings of a Boston based firm that specializes in modeling the likely property damage in a disaster field.
