Florida drought: A tale of two coasts

On the East Coast of Florida, there is still spots of standing water in areas after heavy rainfall in October. Whereas on almost the entire west coast of Florida, that half of the state is in drought -- and potentially severe drought in some spots. FOX 35 meteorologist Brooks Garner explains.

What is minimum central pressure, and how does it measure hurricane power?

When we talk about hurricanes, the first number you usually hear is wind speed. That makes sense. Wind is what tears off roofs, knocks down trees, and turns debris into dangerous missiles. Wind kicks up waves and pushes storm surge onto beaches. But when scientists measure how intense a hurricane really is, they often focus on something you cannot feel or see: central pressure.
