I got notice that the touch down was Summerlin and Gladious. (Toward Sanibel Island)

Marcus said his office is 2 minutes from there.

Fox 4 is now reporting the Tornado Warning has been lifted, but the watch to remain in effect until 5pm.

Looks like Lake Okeechobee is next. I think we should be OK now.
