Hurricane Warning Issued In Florida
By Alan Lord

Miami – Weather Officials have issued a state-wide warning that the much-battered Florida Panhandle may not be subjected to hurricanes for a few days.
Residents have been told not to take tape off their windows and in fact keep them boarded up permanently if possible.
"It's been horrible," Kitty McCallum said. "We just keep taking the mops in and out of the closet and keep taping and untaping the windows”.

Rotating power cuts are also to be maintained around the clock, to insure that Floridians don’t have a chance to lull themselves into a false sense of security and to remind Amercians as a whole that their excessive consumption of energy and the resulting global warming is the most probable cause of recent catastrophic weather changes worldwide.
People like Kitty thought remain defiant.
She told BIGfib."I'll tape up my windows, and mop the floors, but don't expect me to stop driving my SUV."
