The August weather might seem ideal for a beach trip, but Hurricane Erin will bring widespread danger in coming days.

Erin is setting records as it became the third hurricane to have the most significant pressure drop in history. Maximum sustained winds increased 85 mph in just 24 hours!

A Heat Advisory is in place once again across Central Florida. This will be in place from 11am-7pm. Afternoon highs will reach the low and middle 90s, with feels-like temperatures around 105-109°+.  Be sure to take it easy if you have any outdoor plans and stay hydrated!

In a statement, Cory Schwisow, interim director of Monroe County Emergency Management, said the county was recently qualified to receive “60% of post-disaster reimbursement funds upfront,” which he said “significantly reduces the financial strain on our county and enhances our ability to respond swiftly to emerging needs.”
