Prepare Now for Tropical Storm Fay

The future is uncertain for newly formed Tropical Storm Fay. Will it intensify into a hurricane... or will it remain just a tropical storm? Is it likely to affect Florida's East Coast... or West Coast? While forecasters are not certain about Fay's path, they are certain about one thing — those living in or visiting Florida should begin to make preparations NOW! The storm could affect weather in the Florida Keys and South Florida as early as Monday and the rest of the state the middle of the week. So, although there hasn't been an official storm warning posted for Florida, preparations should begin this weekend.
