Hi, We have so much rain these days. If there is more there will be
flooding.

I passed several car accidents on the way to pdoc's appt.

I hope it clears up for us.
I hope others in weird weather situations are safe.

Hi Mari I've seen the reports, and radar of your State. That tropical storm is moving over most of the State.

It looks like it's very energized around the Tampa area. That's close to where one of my cousins lives.

It will become rainy, but it will pass hopefully soon. BF

It's just hot, and humid up here. The storm is forecast to go out to sea before it would enter my State. There is a large high pressure system over this area. BF

[Mari]

I think we are getting rain from a different system -- not the tropical storm although we are expected to get rain from that storm too in a day or so.

They are warning of rip currents -- (All tourists out of the water)
What is a rip current?

Moving at speeds of up to eight feet per second, rip currents can move faster than an Olympic swimmer.
Panicked swimmers often try to counter a rip current by swimming straight back to shore . . .

We are also under a flood warning.
NWS Flood Safety Home Page

A Flood Warning is issued when the hazardous weather event is imminent or already happening.

We had a powerful thunderstorm that came out of the blue Wednesday night. There was a lot of lightening.

I should have remembered that storms like this can happen at any time in hot, and humid weather like this. BF

I'm sorry that you're getting so much rain in your area, Mari. I hope you don't get much more, and there's no substantial flooding…
I know there's a lot of storms hanging around out there causing lots of rain, particularly on the Atlantic coast.

what about the hurricane?

That storm hit Keaton Beach, Fl at 11:15 pm Thursday night going 80 miles an hour with a storm surge.

The areas in the picture are probably flooded at the moment because of the
record storm surge. The storm hit during a NEW MOON -- New and Full moons
bring the highest tides of the month.

My brother told me that he and his tug boat are safely tide up in a harbor on the East Coast.
