TS Fay

Saturday, Governor Crist put the entire state of Florida under an emergency. As a long time resident (my entire life! of Florida) I personally thought that was a bit over the top, especially since Fay was still in the Dominican Republic and a weak TS at that time. It is fairly certain (as certain as these things are) that Fay will impact Florida. This is a very telling graphic showing the path of Hurricane Charley (a CAT 4) back in 2004. 2004 was just a horrible year for Hurricanes in Florida, I don't believe any one in the state that year was left unaffected. We had 5 brush with storms in the Jacksonville area that year. We pray for those in the path (including ourselves) of Fay and hope it does not strengthen too strongly.
