Tropical Storm Fay Looking Good Over Florida

By Jesse Ferrell, AccuWeather meteorologist and senior weather editor

Here's a quick shot from AccuWeather.com RadarPlus of Tropical Storm Fay at 8 AM... she is looking pretty good, considering she's over land, with a well-defined eye (on radar, but not satellite). Download* radar loop here - she has really organized over the last two hours.

Now the question is, where will she move? Below is the latest Model Spread [JessePedia]. Some models say she could move into the Gulf again, but most agree that she will meander in the Southeast, providing additional flooding and drought relief as I mentioned yesterday.

Here's the latest guess on 1-week rainfall from the GFS Forecast Model [JessePedia]. It still sees a foot for Northeast Florida but has backed off the foot it had in the Panhandle yesterday.

Below is the latest "Breaking News" update from AccuWeather.com. When Jim Kosek files new on-location footage, it will appear there.
