Charley Anniversary Reminder

I know hurricane season technically started two and a half months ago. But, those of us who live in storm prone areas know things really don't get cooking in the Atlantic until August.

So, on this, the 3-year anniversary of one of the worst storms that ever ravaged Central Florida, I want to take the opportunity to warn all you socks against complacency.

And, perhaps appropriately, I saw on tonight's news that we have not one but TWO storms a-brewin' out there. One's about 10 days out in the Atlantic and headed this way. The other is in the Gulf and more likely to hit Texas.

The thing about hurricanes is that you get PLENTY of notice to prepare. So, do it now if you haven't already. There's really no excuse to play the victim with this much warning.

You read it here first.
