11am Saturday (8-3) Tropical Depression 4 UPDATE from NHC (NOAA NWS National Hurricane Center) Not much has changed since previous update, but what jumps out at you when you look at the forecast cone is how slow the storm moves next week. This will prolong impacts in Florida, Georgia, SC and NC. Here are the latest key messages from NHC. For us, #4 is most important. I could see Tropical Storm Watches issued for us later today. 1. Heavy rainfall will likely result in locally considerable flash and urban flooding across portions of Florida and the coastal areas of the Southeast this weekend through Thursday morning. River flooding is also expected. 2. Hurricane conditions are possible late Sunday in portions of the Florida Gulf Coast and Big Bend region where a Hurricane Watch is in effect. Tropical storm conditions are expected farther south along Florida’s west coast, including the Tampa Bay area, and in the Dry Tortugas where Tropical Storm Warnings are in effect. 3. There is a danger of life-threatening storm surge inundation along portions of the west coast of Florida from Aripeka to the Aucilla River. Life-threatening storm surge is possible west of Aucilla River to Indian Pass and south of Aripeka to Bonita Beach, including Tampa Bay and Charlotte Harbor. 4. Impacts from storm surge, strong winds, and heavy rains are possible elsewhere in Florida and along the southeast coast of the United States from Georgia to North Carolina through the middle of next week, and interests in those areas should continue to monitor the progress of this system. Additional watches and warnings will likely be required later today.

Hurricane Milton UPDATE…. Milton is now a Category 5 Hurricane with winds of 160 mph! Models do indicate a bit of a weakening trend before landfall in FL on Wednesday, not before significant impacts will affect especially the west coast of Florida. Here are the latest Key Messages from NHC… 1. Damaging hurricane-force winds are expected across portions ofthe northern coast of the Yucatan Peninsula. A life-threatening storm surge with damaging waves is also likely along portions of the northern coast of the Yucatan Peninsula. 2. There is an increasing risk of life-threatening storm surge and damaging winds for portions of the west coast of the Florida Peninsula beginning Tuesday night or early Wednesday. Storm Surge and Hurricane Watches are now in effect for portions of the west coast of the Florida Peninsula and residents in that area should follow any advice given by local officials and evacuate if told to do so. 3. Areas of heavy rainfall will impact portions of Florida today well ahead of Milton, with heavy rainfall more directly related to the system expected later on Tuesday through Wednesday night. This rainfall will bring the risk of considerable flash, urban, and areal flooding, along with the potential for moderate to major river flooding. For our potential impacts, the thinking remains the same. See earlier discussion this morning….

As Hurricane Beryl makes landfall in Texas, it’s a crucial reminder of the power and unpredictability of storms. Alongside high winds and heavy rain, storm surges are one of the most dangerous threats during a hurricane. What is a Storm Surge? A storm surge is an abnormal rise in seawater level caused by strong storm winds pushing water onshore. This can lead to severe flooding, property damage, and can be life-threatening. Storm Surge Planning Zones: Understanding your storm surge planning zone is essential for effective preparation. Here’s what you can do: *Stay Informed: Determine your storm surge planning zone and keep updated with weather forecasts and alerts. *Prepare Your Property: Use sandbags, elevate furniture, and secure important documents. *Have a Plan: Know your evacuation routes based on your zone and have a communication strategy. *After the Storm: If your property is impacted by a storm surge, PuroClean of Aventura, Davie & Downtown Miami is here to help. Our team of experts will respond quickly to mitigate damage, remove water, and restore your home to its pre-storm condition. In the wake of Beryl, let’s stay vigilant and prepared. Your safety is our priority, and we’re committed to supporting our community through any storm.

SATURDAY EVENING NOTES ON TS DEBBY: Tropical Storm Debby is now expected to be a category one hurricane at the time of landfall early Monday morning, with winds of 75 mph. Landfall is expected somewhere around the "Big Bend" region of Florida. Remember, the main wind/rain/storm surge impact will be along and to the right (east) of the circulation center. Little to no impact for Gulf Shores, Pensacola, Destin, and Panama City Beach; they will be on the drier west side of the circulation with an offshore flow. Some rain is certainly possible in these places, but the main issues with wind and rain will be east of Panama City Beach. The hurricane watch begins at Indian Pass, and the hurricane warning begins at the Ochlockonee River, south of Tallahassee. From the latest high resolution model data, it now looks like the most widespread rain associated with Debby will be east of Mexico Beach and Tyndall AFB. This means some heavy rain is possible for places like Cape San Blas and St. George Island tomorrow afternoon through early Monday. But, a slight jog to the east of the current path will mean little rain for these places. Highest risk of hurricane force wind gusts and storm surge flooding will be east of the Ochlockonee River down to the Suwannee River, where the hurricane warning is in effect. As always, this forecast could change, so stay tuned for updates!

⚠️Inclement Weather Update⚠️ We’re closely watching Hurricane Milton which is expected to impact our area late Wednesday or early Thursday. The National Hurricane Center predicts it will become a major hurricane today. Landfall is expected Wednesday by Longboat Key. The current track shows the center passing through Lake Alfred where it is expected to take a slight turn to the south and exit the peninsula near Cape Canaveral. After landfall, the storm is predicted to quickly weaken and could be a category 1 storm as it impacts our area. The current track shows us on the weaker side of the storm. We now are predicted to get 6-8″ of rain, with a 40% chance of flash flooding. There is a 50-60% chance of sustained winds of 40mph+ starting Wednesday morning. We want to assure you the safety and comfort of our residents is our top priority. Our dedicated team started over the weekend completing tasks on detailed checklists to ensure we are fully prepared. We have ample food and water and have backup generators for our healthcare areas as required by law. As the storm approaches, there may be watches and warnings issued. A flood watch for our area (for rains not connected to Milton) is in place. We will continue to update this information as the situation changes. As is common with these types of storms, the weather service may issue severe thunderstorm or tornado watches or warnings as these bands move through the area. These are not the same as tropical storm or hurricane watches or warnings. All residents and employees are safe and secure.
