A 15 foot tall wall of water is about to slam directly into a major American city. More than 3 million people live in the Tampa Bay metropolitan area, and hundreds of thousands of them are very tightly concentrated along the coast. Most of them are attempting to evacuate, but there are apparently large numbers of local residents that are choosing not to do so. This is very foolish, because their homes are about to be underwater. Sadly, many of those that are trying to evacuate are stuck in extremely long traffic jams. Those that run low on gasoline as they sit in those traffic jams are discovering that a lot of gas stations are already totally out of fuel. In fact, as you will see below, CNN is reporting that 1,300 Florida gas stations have now run out of gasoline, and more gas stations are going dry with each passing hour. Whether willingly or unwillingly, vast numbers of people are going to end up stuck in this storm, and the death toll is likely to be extremely high.
