Tropical Storm Fay, likely to become Hurricane Fay before landfall is expected to come onshore sometime tomorrow morning somewhere between Naples Florida, and Punta Gorda Florida, with the Fort Myers / Cape Coral Area currently in the middle of the National Hurricane Centers middle point.
Hurricane Fay is predicted to be a minimum hurricane with wind speeds at approximately 80 miles per hour with gusts up to 105 miles per hour. The projected path as of 11am Eastern standard time form the National Hurricane Center is below. Notice the expanse of the cone, as the exact landfall position is not certain and the storm is projected to follow a path within the cone.
The strength of the storm is dependent on the forward speed as well as any shear in the upper atmosphere. Right now a 80 mile per hour sustained wind for Fay seems likely. Stay turned to the Hurricane center as well as this blog for any further updates. Please be careful everyone, especially Our Viewers from SouthWest Florida and the Keys.
