Hurricane Frances

Well Guys.....This is one troubling storm....I was listening to WIRK (Country station) this am...and they had the Storm Team on to give us the updates on this hurricane...It's back up to a Category 4 (NOT GOOD) but they are having a devil of a time tracking where it is going to make landfall....last reports puts it in St Lucie County which is about 1 hour away from us and then going across Orlando (Those poor people-they're still recovering from Charlie!) Others are putting this making landfall more northward....Others are still putting landfall right across good old West Palm Beach (my home)...I can certainly appreciate their job as it's mostly guess work when you also have to consider ocean currents, warm fronts, cold fronts...anything that could push it into another direction....

Keep your fingers crossed!!!!!!

Well....as of the 11am update...hopefully will make landfall in Jacksonville over the weekend!!! YEAH! I hope this is correct...what they are saying is that it's skirting up the coastline possibly just north of us...so we may get some tail end hurricane force winds and more than likly tropical storm force winds....at any rate this is what's expected ( I love that word...it's "expected" do do this meaning in all likely hood it will but it could also turn more westward) but all in all it's looking good for us!
