Protective Florida Kevlar

Today, modeling suggests that the developing tropical storm will reach the vicinity of Cancun around September 3rd - a dangerous place for Tampa residents due to proximity and being upwind - but instead of heading towards Tampa, the storm would continue west across the Yucatan Peninsula and the Bay of Campeche into Mexico proper. 

There is also the suggestion of a second tropical system forming after the first storm passes in the northern Caribbean, but which would instead head north across eastern Cuba and the Bahamas, and make closest approach to the shores of eastern Florida around September 9th. Still, well off-shore. 

If these scenarios hold, it's good for Florida! As if Florida is coated in protective Kevlar.
