#Milton is now an extratropical cyclone, and #Leslie is back down to tropical storm intensity, so ACE is accruing *much* slower now compared to recent days. But it's at 134% of average for the date, which also puts it in the top 9% of values for the date.…

Bumping this back up... the timing is slower, but a tropical storm or hurricane landfall in #Florida is looking much more likely on Wednesday-ish this week. Be prepared. Next name is #Milton. #92L [contains quote post or other embedded content]
