Thank you! I just upgraded my subscription to tell you that I really appreciate your thorough discussion in terms a “layperson “ can understand. I have at least five weather apps that never satisfy me up here on the western Florida Panhandle!

I'm a CoCoRaHS observer in Palm Bay (FL-BV-151), good thing I just got a bigger, shiny new gauge...I guess.

Thanks, as always, for looking out for us!

Both the GFS and ECMWF ensembles are sticking with the stronger storm idea. Interesting to see what will actually happen.
