NHC monitoring 2 disturbances in the Atlantic and Caribbean | Tracking the Tropics
SUMMARY: Florida’s Gulf Coast is recovering from back-to-back hurricanes, raising concerns about the potential for a third storm. The National Hurricane Center (NHC) reported a disturbance in the Atlantic that may become a tropical depression as it moves westward, with a 10% chance of development in the next 48 hours, increasing to 60% within seven days. Additionally, a disturbance in the western Caribbean could develop as it travels toward northern Central America, with a 30% chance of development this week. Environmental conditions will dictate the potential for both systems to strengthen.

In addition to the name change, the college will undergo academic realignments, including the merging of several schools. The football program will be discontinued, with a focus shifting to the remaining 17 sports and facility upgrades. All changes are expected to be completed by the bicentennial.

SUMMARY: Clay County Sheriff Eddie Scott advises residents to ensure package safety amid the holiday season due to the rise in thefts, referred to as “porch pirates.” He recommends tracking deliveries, having someone present to collect packages, or using alternative delivery destinations like relatives’ homes or workplaces. Installing security cameras is also suggested for real-time monitoring. Scott emphasizes the importance of planning ahead when ordering gifts, as replacements may not arrive in time for Christmas. The deadline for UPS shipping to ensure Christmas delivery is December 21.
