The first blow of the disaster was taken by Siesta Key, known for its sandy beaches, and the densely populated Tampa Bay area. As a result of the disaster, St. Petersburg, Sarasota, and Fort Myers were also affected.
Meteorologists predict the consequences of heavy rains that could cause flooding in regions near rivers and lakes.
