Tampa and the Port Charlotte area and all those little barrier islands along that area are in danger of major storm surge.

This thing is already a Cat 4 storm.

Someplace along the coast is going to get wrecked.

Mexico is flirting with this thing making landfall in Yucatan as a Cat 5 before it turns this way.

What stocks does one invest in or short when one thinks tampa might be destroyed?

Caterpillar is looking good with the amount of debris removal and construction that's going to be needed. :oP

Home depot maybe. Does the US dollar go down if we lose tampa or is tampa too irrelevant.

Hurricane fail. That was a pretty bad set of intensity and surge forecasts on our part. While it chewed on some of the most surge prone beaches south of tampa a little and spawned a few killer tornadoes, its impacts were overall fairly low.
