1. I don't like where she's sitting

Andrew was down there too and we live in Lake Worth next town south of West Palm Beach which is in the top left corner of that little square blotch of clouds below Lake Okeechobee-scary- time to dig the hurricane shudders out-we spent alot on them and I had hoped we'd never have to put them up but Issy is looking scary out there

2. Forecasters: Isabel unlikely to strike Florida

The outlook for Florida brightened considerably this morning as Hurricane Isabel showed initial signs of veering away from the peninsula. Experts said it was too early to sound the all-clear, but the computerized forecast models were offering comfort.

''There are no dynamical models suggesting that Isabel might ever reach Florida,'' said forecaster Lixion Avila of the National Hurricane Center in West Miami-Dade County.

The storm-related future of other areas was more cloudy.

Forecasters said points farther north along the East Coast still could endure a strike by Isabel, though it was also possible that the hurricane would curve out to sea next week without touching the mainland.
