Re: They aint callin it yet
Tropical Storm Karen formed this morning and is nearing hurricane strength in the far southern Gulf of Mexico.
• A general northerly motion should continue through the next 36-48 hours, with a curve to the northeast this weekend. The eventual landfall location is still uncertain. Monitor the forecast closely!
• A Hurricane Watch is in effect from Grand Isle, LA to Indian Pass, FL. This includes portions of Walton, Bay, and Gulf Counties. Possible impacts:
• Strong winds possible near and to the east of the track of the center of the storm.
• Above normal tides with storm surge along the Panhandle and Big Bend coast, including Apalachee Bay.
• Heavy rainfall possible, particularly in training feeder bands to the east of the center of Karen.
• Timing: Impacts this weekend, mainly Saturday Night and Sunday

Re: They aint callin it yet
Just got this e-mail Waldo.

Franklin County Emergency Management continues at a level 3 of just monitoring at this time
Tropical Storm Karen continues to move NNW at 12 mph
Based on track uncertainty at this time, continue to monitor local radio and NOAA for updates
Please take precautions of securing boats, outdoor furniture, latching personal items down, etc.
No evacuation is planned for Franklin County at this time
We are expecting a storm surge of 3-5 feet for Dog Island, Ball Point and Alligator Point, a 3 feet storm surge for Apalachicola Bay
