The warning is from Longboat Key to the Ochlockonee River on the Gulf Coast. Alberto is now expected to become a hurricane later today. Things can change quickly and even if Alberto doesn't make it to hurricane strength, there's no difference between the 73mph winds (and rain) of a strong tropical storm and the 74mph winds of a Cat 1 hurricane.

If YOU are in the path of this storm DON'T take it lightly. Prepare now, you still have time to get the supplies you'll need to be ready and if local authorities tell you to leave, DO IT. Don't be a statistic. You and your family are always more important than property and 'things'!
