Storm Warning



Tropical Storm Isaac has formed in the Atlantic Ocean and its forecast track takes it toward Florida. One computer model puts the storm smack dab in the middle of Florida in the early part of next week.

It's obviously early, and the storm could change course, but you should take precautions in case it doesn't. Bottled water, canned food, a NON-electric can opener, batteries and a radio are among the things you should stock up on, if you haven't already.

Also, check your front and rear patio areas for any loose items that could become projectiles in high winds. With any luck, this is just a drill, but we did see effects from Tropical Storm Debby earlier this summer, even though that one struck Florida well north of us.

Stay safe.
