Good morning, im emily riemer. Randy and im randy price. We want to get to mike wankum with the storms tracking this hour. Mike the eye is 50 miles offshore, but the bands are within five to 10 miles, and you can see the trend, it is drifting closer to the coast, so these heavy bands, which have the strongest winds with them are going to start working inland. Daytona beach may be the area where we see the strongest winds moving on the shore. There is the eye, well defined just off of melbourne letting up as you head dto this point. We saw some wind gusts over a hurricane strength this morning. Those will settle back to 6 one mile per hour winds. Melbourne the winds are picking up, and were continuing to see this area of Hurricane Force winds move its way along the coast, and eventually off the coast later this afternoon. For the carolinas, kind of missing out on whats going to be happening. Today around here were going to be dealing with lots of sunshine all day long. High temperatures
