Looks like wind, rain and some squalls are coming to the Lower and Central Keys tomorrow courtesy of Hurricane Paula. Strongly recommend staying well clear of the squalls. We've been lucky not to have lost anyone in a tropical system in the USA for a few years. Best not to push our luck, some will and some will lose over time.
