Florida Keys and along portions of the southeast Florida coast,
where a Tropical Storm Warning is in effect. Tropical storm
conditions are possible elsewhere in portions of southern and
central Florida beginning Sunday night, where a Tropical Storm Watch
is in effect.

Additional Tropical Storm Warnings will likely be needed later today.

Oops! Wrong ‘Etta.’ :)

May as well go out with a SMILE on your lips. ;)

[Jemian]

Just when I’ve begun to get myself together
You waltz right in the door
Just like you’ve done before...

Here you come again lookin’ better than a body has a right to
And shakin’ me up so that all I really know
Is here you come again and here I go
All you gotta do is smile that smile
And there got all my defenses
Just leave it…

[NautiNurse]

Glad to hear this! I’m headed over to the east coast now, don’t know when I’ll be able to cross back to home in the coming week. Crazy storm track.

[NautiNurse]

Thanks for the songs. I’m adding them to my road trip playlist now. Pray for me...driving across the state on Hwy 70 to storm-sit with Mom.

[Diana in Wisconsin]

Prayers Up for you and Mom. :)

[Jemian]

Definite prayers. What is this for the Gulfcoast this year, number 6 or 7?

[NautiNurse]

Gulf Coast storm count this season? Are we using actual count or the Democrat cheating factor?

[Jemian]

LOL! Actual. I’m thinking for us in east central AL, it may be #5 to come our way.
