Hurricane Idalia forecast & track: Tuesday morning
FOX 13 Meteorologist Dave Osterberg says the Bay Area will likely begin seeing tropical storm force winds Tuesday evening as a result of Hurricane Idalia, which is expected to make landfall near Cedar Key, Florida, Wednesday morning.
I am not from Florida but can I just compliment how the newscaster is calm, confident, knowledgeable, and just makes you feel aware. He seems like he knows his job so well and is so friendly ❤️
They’re use to it, also the people in florida
Yes he seems very warm and charismatic
I’ve met Dave in person and watched him for years, he’s a really laid back guy!
He is a certified AMS meteorologist. If you are not familiar with the Tampa Bay Area and the West Coast of Florida, weather forecasts and analyses have always been at this high calibre at WTVT Chanel 13 all the way from the early days of Meteorologist Roy Leep in the 1960’s to this very day. Weather is taken very seriously down there as it can often be deadly.
Prayers up for all my fellow Floridians in the path of Hurricane Idalia.
We’ll be fine
thank you!!🙏🙏🙏
Thank you, stay blessed 🙏🏼
thanks! I am in the path of this hurricane and I am kinda worried, but thank you! 🙂
Greetings from Suwannee County!
Praying we don’t lose power in this heatwave and everyone stays safe.
Same here, that’s been my biggest concerns. I know Floridians can handle tough ‘canes but this heat will do a number to those without power. =(
That’s my concern too
True Floridians know that the models are not certain until just hours before landfall. Ian was supposed to make landfall in Tampa but instead right hooked and the eye sat in my back yard in Placida with 207mph winds. Coastal folks do not take any chances.
Yes thank you someone that is saying the same thing as me!
Right.
Charley did the same thing!
The Last Hurricane to Hit Tampa was 104 years ago in 1919.
Remember how many time and how drastic irmas path changed
I’ve seen crews mobilizing up and down the State, they are ready to rock when all clear is given!
I just hope the people of Florida are willing to be adults and kind rather than be insulting as usual and attack electric service providers because their power wasn’t restored immediately. I can’t help but remember all the horrible videos that keep surfacing after each power loss of very cruel people, insulting and attacking those responders.
@Yoel Reina Not us, We have bbq and beer to hand out to the folks working round the clock.
This weather guy is amazing! Enjoyed him!
Be safe Florida, if we could take this in Texas we would.
We seriously need the rain all across our state. 🙁
Good morning florida. Everyone stay safe
Watching from New Orleans Hope this stays on track and misses the Tampa area a direct hit could rival Katrina in destruction. Don’t want to see you go through that
Tampa..pssst
Katrina was an absolute beast!! We got 60 MPH winds here in Pensacola FL. This won’t be near as bad. Cat 3 predicted, but hopefully more wind shear to tear the cloud tops off.
This too shall pass 🙏🏻
