As of the 11pm Tuesday advisory it looks like landfall could be much farther south than it was predicted just 24 hours ago.  If it stays on the latest track it means less of a surge for Tampa Bay.

For the latest information on evacuations, cancelations, shelters and more, visit the Storm Center on our homepage. Here are the latest observations from Denis Phillips and his ABC Action News team and other weather experts.

Keeps going south.

Tornado alerts still in effect.

Please heed tornado warnings.

We are already seeing video and photos come in from Hollywood, FL from the damage of a suspected tornado.

It's still a category 3 storm.

Still clocking in at a category 3 storm.

But, it could get stronger overnight.

Conditions will continue to deteriorate.

We hope that you are where you need to be to ride out the storm by now. Please stay safe.

Thankfully there are people who will take an airplane into the center of a hurricane.
