We know millions of gallons of rain and officials have said here in st. Pete, that all three of their water treatnt facilities areax capacity. Thats why they need to get rid of some of that water because effects of Tropical Storm hitting our area. So again, they are urging folks not only here on treasury island, but gulfport, st. Pete beach as well. Because all of sewage water from the these beaches go into st. Petethey are urging folks to cleaning your clothes. At least until the next 24 hours until things settle down.

A storm water breached production site and got into the filtration system. So now, they are having to flush the before bring it back online. No word yet on when that will happen. This was scene late last night. Hudson, pasco county. An electrical fire at the Bayonet Point hospital led to evacuation of 209 people. And fox 13 Shayla Reeves is with very latest on this. Good morning, shayla. Hi, good morning to you. If you could just imagine working a 12hour shift, evacuating patients, then traveling about an hour to another hospital to help with more patients. And that is was the reality for some nurses that i encounter earlier this morning. They tell me thats how they were able to make difference. Ps 4 oclock in the mornin yesterday. And this is the reason why. Take a look at your screen. Regional Medical CenterBayonet Point. The scene unfolding right around 6 30 in the evening wednesday. Staff members checked every room and removed every patient after an electrical fire led to a power outage. Were talking about 209 people taking out of the building. Some carried from the third floor.

Fortunately in this case everyone made it out okay. They are there are no injuries to report. Right now staff and security are working to restore operations to the building.

Youre showing off the kinds of things we need during storms. Thats right. This florida Largest Labor day home show starts home runs through monday. When we and back we will focus on the garage russell andng tet floor. What you should really do, welcome back. In a place i should not be. Why . You welcome im not qualified for this. Im not qualified for this room. Once or twice a year. I want to tell are you, this has been i ever watched yall t last f trying to figure this thing out. This has ab very difficult storm to plot to figure out. 20, 21 years ive doing hurricanes. I cant think of more frustrating system than this. Really . Only because it just took forever to get going. And which you cant rely on computer models until you do that then at the same time its, you know you dont want anything in the gulf. Yeah. Because, if this thing had orgazed day or two earlier. Hurricane by now. Thankfully its not the been longest stretch we can remember or in history we know of since florida has hit by a hurricane. That might end tonight. Because, theres at possibility. Theres a possibility. Lets get into it all rain bands sitting oh of shore they are just over hovering. Just waiting ten, 11 inches of rain yesterday in parts of Pinellas County. So, everything is full i look at this way cup is full. Any more rain would obviously start more flooding issues. That plus, higher than tides for the next 24 to say 30 hours. So, no, were not going to Hurricane Force winds here in tampa area. No. Thats not going to happen. But we may still deal with few issues late this afternoon and tonight with squally weather and of course higher then normal tides. Big picture you can actually see now on radar, theres the center of the storm moving just ast wasupposed to north, northeast. Heres apalachicola. Smidge east of apalachicola. Since the beginning of this storm its been one sided. Meaning everything is on just the about on eastern side. So all of this moisture is also going to come along with it. So while it is quiet right now, we do expect later today the evening commng i yr ur ws,re gng to have to deal with some rain and some gusty winds as well. Look at the wave heights. I remember showing thi map feet. 18 feet associated with thi the storm. Yes, we will propagate those waves outward. Nore n though type of wave heights off our coast. Just trying to show you how strong this storm is becoming and how quickly it is starting to intensify. Thats why we want to get it out of here fast. 58 mile per hour wind gusts. This buoy out here earlier today reported appear 63 mile per hour wind gust. Officially the winds aret 6 the Forward Movement is north, northeast at 12. Again you can see how lopsided it is. Typically the eastern side of a. This. Ts clearly apparent on ere notng thet side right now. So as this starts to move, and we start to pin wheel some of that rain on shore, just know in the back of your mind we will have to deal with that later today and tonight. Category 1 hurricane land fall, very early tomorrow morning. And on this path obviously the felt right here. In the big bend area. Thats where they have hurricane warnings out. But, 140 miles out from the center of this storm you have to Tropical Storm force winds. Hence the reason for Tropical Storm warning from pasco county toernando county to citrus then hurricane win in very small area. Probable is youre going to funnel all kinds ever water up into extreme forth northeast gulf apalachee bay. And thats not good a storm surge a potential problem much further toward north we still have to deal with coast will flood advisories how many times have we had tropical systems pass us to west yet we still had coastal flooding. Thats one times we have to worry about later today. Coastal flood advisory until friday at 1 oclock. Two, maybe 3 high tide cycle where we will have to deal with above normal tides. That doesnt disinclude counties to the south all through hillsborough and pinellas. Of course, what that really meanest seas a couple feet above what they normally would. Then, you got rip currents. Then youve got high surf. To deal with as well. Further north you go, Tropical Storm warning Pasco HernandoCitrus County. Are yanticipating . Some squally weather tonight maybe f a few hou tonight. As the storm then moves on shore. Things will dtimacallyrttato mproveor rrhe for our frien to the nort may tides runny 4 to six feet above because, somying ars the citrucounty and anrndo c weilha to watch some tidal flooding in spots. High tides next couple high tides Crystal River sarasota youre 1 03. Tides running a few feet above normal. Tonight, and again tomorrow morning and your storm surge forecast, really one to two, maybe three feet tops. Tampa bay area. Much higher amounts as ago further toward the north. You can tell by the sequence of these maps that the further north you go, the tougher impact is really going to felt as some of this rain moves on shore later today, you have that Severe Weather risk of slight risk for severe storms to too sumter counts where you might get a few isolated tornadoes as well. Quiet now which good getting a chance to hopefully decline things out a little bit increasing wind and rain later this afternoon. As your temperatures hit lower 80s. And well probably be dealing with some rain again tomorrow morning. And some gusty winds and dramatically improved by t over.
