Good morning Treasure Coast. WE have a lot going on so let’s get to it. Of course our main concern is what is happening in the tropics. A hurricane hunter is going out today to investigate the system that I expect will soon be Colin. The model trends have been more towards North Florida but these models will likely change when the system develops. Regardless of the track, the system will be large and will affect a large area with rain and potential severe weather.

Heavy Rain Event for East Central Florida
Potential Tropical Activity for Florida
Good evening everybody. We continue to closely monitor the potential development in the Gulf. System development is becoming more likely as time goes on. Regardless of system development, rain chances are going to increase significantly early next week in East Central Florida. Deep tropical moisture is going to bring increased rain chances to our region as well as most of Florida.

Cold Front Approaching Florida
Good morning Treasure Coast!! As a good part of the East Coast wakes up to snow and ice, 70 degree temperatures are the rule for most of Florida this morning.
A low pressure area located over SE South Carolina is moving NE into the Atlantic. The trailing cold front is now located in North Florida. The front is accompanied by rain and a few thunderstorms. This rain shield will reach our area later this afternoon into tonight.
Strong Cold Front To Move Through Florida
Good Monday morning Treasure Coast!! Although we are not in a tornado watch area, a line of rain and storms will likely move across our region ahead of a strong cold front. Tornado watches are in place for parts of the Florida Panhandle at this hour.
Today, a strong cold front will approach East Central Florida and will move through the area by late tonight. We could see some lightning storms develop ahead of this frontal system along with heavy rain and wind gusts to 50 MPH.
Hurricane Wilma 9 Year Anniversary
Nine years ago Friday on October 24, 2005, Hurricane Wilma blasted through Florida with strong winds and rain causing widespread power outages throughout most of Florida. Wilma was the last big storm to make landfall in Florida. 2005 was also the year that Katrina devastated the Gulf states. Wilma at one point in time had the lowest recorded pressure ever recorded in the Atlantic.
