Irene
07:15 AM EDT - 15 October 1999

Hurricane watches now up for east central Florida. Irene continues to remain a cat 1 hurricane. South Florida will get a lot of rain today and some very gusty winds. Central Florida should start getting heavy rain and wind later on today and through Saturday. Hopefully Irene will not strengthen over the next 6 hours before making a landfall somewhere in southwest Florida. Watch out for tornados and flooding.
