Tis the season

Whoever said Florida doesn't have seasons didn't know what they were talking about. Our January and February are the Midwest's spring tornado season. Watch the weather tonight! From 2-4 a.m. the Space Coast has a excellent chance of a tornado. The above photo was taken by Lake Okeechobee in January, 1991. Next week marks the 3rd anniversary of the tornadoes that struck the middle of the state in 2007, killing 19 people. Statistically speaking, just in the period from 1950 - 1995, Florida ranked #4 in the country for tornado frequency, with 2,104 recorded tornadoes. 85 deaths and 2,631 injuries were also recorded. So check the weather before going to sleep tonight!
