Knowing that this can all change, (although the track is now pretty highly confident), in the worst case scenario, can The Villages handle that amount of water?
Nope, no worries for us, if it spins off tornadoes, May be a problem. But no basement to go to here.
Not the first time a hurricane turned to TS has tracked through TV. We never lost power in Duval, some tunnels were flooded. Biggest complaint TV ran sprinklers day and night on the course’s to lower ponds, So No Golf For You
