Just as well for the Middle Keys, that she waited 'til this AM to intensify, I think. Glad things went well for you.
I usually watch ch 10, Don Noe has been at it for a long time, always tells it like it is, no exaggeration, no hoping for a bad storm or anything. Plus, they show a cool map that shows the Bahama Banks and everything, looks like it's imposed on a satellite photo, has fairly accurate colors for the water, etc.
He was showing it last night, the "Pocket" of the Tongue of the Ocean and the Berry Islands showed clearly.
I guess those are straight news reporters you are talking about, I don't know who any of them are. Ch 7 used to be the worst.
