I got the year wrong. We arrived in 1988, but Julia says that it was 89 or 90
that she had to look after herself; I'll look up hurricanes, or tropical
storms, for those years.
We lived within about 6 feet of the waterline, on Bayshore Boulevard about 2
miles north of MacDill AFB:

She would have had to go north and a bit inland, but I think the idea was to
head out of state; the British Embassy would have picked up the tab.
