Resembling spaghetti noodles, each line in a spaghetti model represents a computer's best guess as to where the center of the storm will go.
These models, however, do not show expected impacts to areas.

Watches and warnings
The National Hurricane Center canceled all warnings south of the Pasco-Hernando County line.
A Tropical Storm Warning means that tropical storm conditions are expected within the warning area within 36 hours.
A Storm Surge Warning means there is a danger of life-threatening inundation, from rising water moving inland from the coastline, during the next 36 hours in the indicated locations.
A Hurricane Warning means sustained winds of 74 mph or higher associated with a hurricane are expected within 36 hours. A Hurricane Warning can remain in effect when dangerously high water or a combination of dangerously high water and exceptionally high waves continue, even though winds may be less than hurricane force.
A Hurricane Watch means that hurricane conditions are possible within the watch area. A watch is typically issued 48 hours before the anticipated first occurrence of tropical-storm-force winds, conditions that make outside preparations difficult or dangerous.
