RELEASED OF A HIGH-RISE THIEF. >> FAST FOOD ATTACK, WHY TWO WOMEN WENT BIZERCK AT STEAK AND
SHAKE.
>> THIS DISTURBANCE THREATENS TO
BECOME THE FIRST NAMED STORM OF
THE SEASON AND HEADS OUR WAY.
>> PARTS OF SOUTH FLORIDA
ALREADY GETTING SLAMMED.
THIS WAS THE SITUATION IN
SUNRISE JUST A SHORT TIME AGO,
HEAVY RAIN AND THUNDER.
>> FLOOD ADVISORIES HAVE BEEN IN
EFFECT ALL AFTERNOON LONG.
>> BECAUSE OF THE DEVELOPING
TROPICAL SYSTEM, MUCH MORE RAIN
IS HEAD LEAED OUR WAY.
HURRICANE EXPERT AND STORM SERGE
SPECIALIST MICHAEL LOWRY IS
STANDING BY
>> BUT WE BEGIN WITH BETTY
DAVIS.
>> IN CASE YOU MISSED IT,
POTENTIAL TROPICAL CYCLONE 1 A
FORECAST TO BECOME A MINIMAL
TROPICAL STORM BY LATE FRIDAY
RIGHT NOW THAT BROAD OUR YEAH OF
PRESSURE AS OF THE 5:00 P.M.
HOUR, WINDS OF 35 MILES PER HOUR
MOVING NORTH AT 5 MILES PER
HOUR, IT MOVES OUT TOWARD THE
SOUTHEASTERN GULF OF MEXICO.
AS I MENTIONED, FORE BY SATURDAY
AFTERNOON, IT HEADS OUT TOWARD
THE FORT MYERS AREA MOVING
ASHORE THERE BUT WHAT WE SEE IS
ALL OF THAT DEEP, TROPICAL
MOISTURE BEING SHUNTED OVER
TOWARDS THE EAST AND THAT’S WHAT
WE EXPECT TO GET TO HERE IN
SOUTH FLORIDA.
THE TIMING OF WHEN WE MAY SEE
THE WORST OF THE WEATHER IN TERM
OFFENSE WHAT THIS SYSTEM OFFERS.
OFF AND ON DOWN POROUS AND JAR
NIGHT FRIDAY INTO SATURDAY.
SUNDAY WE’LL LOOK FOR DRIER
CONDITIONS IN THE AREA.
NOW, YES, WE’RE UNDER A TROPICAL
STORM WATCH BUT WE REALLY NEED
TO BE FOCUSED ON THE RAIN ASPECT
OF THIS BECAUSE THERE MAY BE
ISOLATED AREAS.
LET’S BRING IN OUR STORM SURGE
EXPERT MICHAEL LOWRY.
SOME MAY SAY I’M NOT IN THE CONE
BUT OUR IMPACTS ARE GOING TO
OCCUR OUTSIDE THE CONE.
>> IT’S RAIN AND IT’S ALL
DOWNHILL FROM HERE, STARTING
PROBABLY TOMORROW AFTERNOON AND
ESPECIALLY INTO SEHRT.
HURRICANE HUNTERSATURDAY.
HURRICANE HUNTERS FLEW DOWN THIS
AFTERNOON.
THEY WERE IN THIS SYSTEM FOR THE
LAST THREE OR FOUR HOURS, I
GUESS, AND THEY DIDN’T FIND THE
DEFINED CIRCULATION THAT WOULD
BE REQUIRED TO CALL THIS A
TROPICAL DEPRESSION BUT THERE’S
ENOUGH HERE AND WE THINK THIS IS
GOING TO BECOME A TROPICAL
DEPRESSION OR STORM THAT WE’RE
GOING TO GO AHEAD AND PUT OUT
THE FORECAST, SO THAT’S WHY
WE’RE SEEING POTENTIAL TROPICAL
CYCLONE ONE.
AS WE ZOOM IN ON THE PICTURE,
WE’RE LOSING OUR SUNLIGHT SO WE
DON’T HAVE TOO MANY FRAMES LEFT.
IF YOU START SQUINTING YOUR EYES
AND LOOK FOR WHICH WAY THE
CLOUDS ARE MOVING, YOU SEE
THERE’S A LITTLE BIT OF A TWIST
OVER HERE AT THE MIDDLE PART OF
THE ATMOSPHERE.
THERE MAY BE A MIDLEVEL SPIN
HERE.
IT’S POSSIBLE THAT IT MAY TRY TO
REORGANIZE CLOSER TO WHERE THE
THUNDERSTORMS ARE.
THAT’S A DEVELOPMENT THAT WE’LL
PROBABLY LOOK FOR DURING THE
OVERNIGHT HOURS.
LET’S GO INTO THE RAINFALL
FORECAST AND TALK ABOUT MORE ON
WHAT WE CAN EXPECT.
UP TO 10-INCHES OF RAIN AND
LOCALLY, HIGHER AMOUNTS THAN
THAT.
IT’S JUST VERY DIFFICULT AT THIS
LEAD TIME TO TELL YOU WHERE THE
HEAVIEST RAIN AND FLOODING IS
GOING TO OCCUR BY SOMEBODY IS
GOING TO GET IT.
WHEN YOU GO BACK AND LOOK AT
JUNE STORMS THE LAST FEW YEARS
IN FLORIDA, ALL OF THEM HAVE THE
SAME CALLING CARD.
WE SEE TREMENDOUS RAIN TOTALS,
28.8-INCHES WITH DEBBIE IN 2012
AND YOU CAN SEE THE THEME HERE.
HOPEFULLY WE DON’T GET THAT HIGH
BUT I THINK WE’LL SEE SOME AREAS
WITH DOUBLE DIGITS SO SOMETHING
