"Ophelia coalesced overnight from a loose and swirling mass of thunderstorms and had top winds of 80kph.
"Ophelia was expected to alternately weaken and strengthen as it hugged the Florida coast, but could still grow into a weak hurricane, with winds of at least 118kph.
"Forecasters said Ophelia could dump eight to 20cm of rain on parts of central and north Florida and southeast Georgia, and trigger dangerous rip tides all along the southeastern coast of the United States.
But the air currents that guide the path of tropical storms were so weak that forecasting models disagreed greatly on Ophelia's most likely track. "
-Just in caese you're wondering what Ophelia's up to... *grin* Sorry, I prolly shouldn't be so thrilled about a tropical storm named Ophelia... but I found this line particularly amusing: "...disagreed greatly on Ophelia's most likely track."
