From the data just off the Gulf robots a model I've used before
predicts Milton will come within a few km of Melbourne FL just before
10 Oct 10pm gmt. That puts the track N of Tampa. Meaning
bad news r.e. storm surge. If the track was substantially S of Tampa
a big hurricane would have the effect of dragging water out of the
bay into the Gulf. But one passing N of Tampa is likely to have the
opposite effect and shove water up into the bay and flood a chunk of
the city.
Present NOAA maps have increased max expected surge to "over 12 ft"
as per Helene.

Climate is a statistical view over periods of 30 years or more.
Hurricane duration is far too short to take them into account in
"climate". 30 years, 40 years, 50 years... statistics on hurricane show
no detectable trend (see table 12.12, chapter 12, WG1, AR6).
