Fay is coming from this direction, and those are her little scouting clouds out in front of the big guns. She is not a hurricane yet, but people are taking precautions - metal hurricane shutters all over the place, the shopping malls closed at four, and most restaurants didn't even open their doors for the dinner crowd.
So the lady visited Cuba, then the Keys, and she'll be in Fort Myers soon - 230 miles from Cuba. Believe it or not, a few years ago when we were in Key West, we stood next to a marker just like this one that was the southernmost point, as close as you can get to Cuba, and still be on U.S soil.
Our United States passports don't permit us to travel to and from Cuba, but Fay doesn't need a passport.
