Weather and Your Car in South Tampa
South Tampa is low and surrounded by water on three sides, so it floods quickly in heavy rain and is the first part of the city to see storm surge. Move the car to higher ground before a storm, and have it checked before starting if water reached the doors.
Salt air off the bay rusts brakes, exhaust parts and battery terminals, and boat trailers backed into the water at Picnic Island need their bearings and lights checked often.
