Tropical Storm Fay has basically been sitting in the same spot for over 12 hours now, but should drift slowly westward over northern Florida over the next few days, before possibly re-emerging over the northeast Gulf of Mexico Friday night. On satellite, Fay is a very large storm but appears to be pulling in dry continental air from the north and west, as expected. The NHC reported a minimum pressure of 994 mb and maximum sustained winds of 50 knots in their latest advisory, but this will likely be the peak intensity unless Fay takes a more southern track than forecast. Stay tuned for updates as this HISTORIC tropical cyclone surges west!
