We're Ready!
Most of the day today was spent preparing for Fay(Tropical Storm or Hurricane we still don't know what it will be yet). At last report from NOAA, 8PM, Tropical Storm Fay was located 105 miles south of Naples, FL. That puts Fay roughly 135-145 miles away from us. The sustained winds are 60mph with higher gusts. She is moving north at 9 mph. This is slower than she was moving earlier in the day. Translated that means that the slower she moves through the Gulf before she reaches us the longer she has to strengthen into a hurricane before she reaches us. Fay will be a category 1 hurricane when she has sustained winds of 74 mph or higher. Here are some pictures from the prep for Fay.
