As of now we are still looking clear as the storm has passed over the keys and does not appear to be strengthening. However, once these late storms hit the Gulf it can be anyone's guess where they go.
The 5 p.m. storm advisory shows Fay moving north-northwest at 12 mph, with maximum sustained winds of about 64 mph. Barometric pressure is at 996 mb. Fay is currently about 140 miles south of Ft. Myers.
