Being a native Floridian, I understand that storms, even severe weather is an everyday part of our locus here. I applaud the county for evacuating the Keys, but I am still uncertain whether lifting the evacuation notice was such a good idea yet. They have had torrential rain today and I've heard the traffic heading towards the islands is a nightmare. Also, according to the Sand Key data buoy, they are receiving sustained winds of 26kts (30mph) and gusts up to 31kts (35.6mph). Those are pretty strong winds to have multitudes commuting over wet bridges.

My thoughts and prayers are with everyone in the path. Please take all precautions necessary to preserve property and life.
