• For all practical purposes...

  .... Hurricane season is done. We can't officially celebrate until the end of November when the season comes to a close.... but chances are very slim that we could see a system develop any time soon. (Although they can happen at any time of year as long as the water' [...]

• It might be a cool Thanksgiving

  

  The next round of cool, dry air might arrive in time for turkey day.

  However, it shouldn’t be “terribly cold,” said meteorologist Robert Molleda of the National Weather Service in Miami.
