We didn't need Charlie to tell us the local media were idiots. So far, NE of Orlando we have had heavy cloud cover and some periods of light to heavy rain. Nothing radical...yet.
Media is just trying to boost ratings. I'm in NW Seminole County and this is just a thunderstorm. No big deal. Rain? Yes. Like we don't have that. We need it. Much about nothing.
The eye looks like it's passed a little to the east of Winter Haven now...
Lot of lakes there, maybe not too many people!
Next up: "Intercession City" !?!?!?
What a name for a town about to be blasted by a hurricane!
