My stepbrother is in Tampa and is riding out the storm there. I wish he left, but we'll see what his situation looks like in the morning when the brunt of the storm blows over him.
My brother's best friend lives in the Keys, but him and his fiance went north to Jacksonville earlier in the week. I'm not sure they're going to have much to return to, though.
A friend's elderly mother is also in the Tampa Bay area. Her other son is a 15 minute drive away, but she refuses to leave her house. Hope she's ok, but it seems like she's ready for the worst to hit her.
A friend lives in Puerto Rico, but he said he was fine after it passed by. I think the opposite side of the island got hit worse than where he is.
