MIAMI (AP) Tropical Storm Gamma formed Friday off the coast of Central America, with long-range forecasts indicating it could threaten Florida by the beginning of next week.
The long-term track from the National Hurricane Center indicated that Gamma may take a track similar to Wilma's and head northeast toward the Florida Peninsula. Wilma tore across the southern portion of the state on Oct. 24, causing widespread damage and power outages.

Of course not. As a sign of expanding operations, the season is now 365 days long.

My (senior) folks are sitting in a heavily damaged prefab, surrounded by all their stuff packed in boxes, waiting to get out of there NEXT week. This is not good news.

... and no doubt, they have no electricity. That's for sure.....it rained here after they got some of the signals working and they went out...doesn't take much to knock out the electric. I'm already making ice.

We like to put full plastic water jugs in the freezer ... so if electricity goes out, you can keep things cold for a while, then eventually you can drink it :-)
