Hi, Fran

Our position: 27.88 N, 82.28 W
Frances' position (as of 11 a.m. EDT): 26.9 N, 78.8 W.
Tropical storm watch in effect for our county


The rain just started. Buckets and buckets of rain. It's a little windy, too. But I'm seeing rain like I've never seen.

This is what they call a "feeder band." It's spinning off to the north and west of Frances, which is currently "drifting" in the Atlantic. They can't even assign a miles-per-hour speed to the thing, because it's moving so slow.

And in the time it took me to type this, it stopped raining. And now the sun is out.

However, that was only a preview, they say.
