Speaker 1 (00:05):
Welcome to the Brian Mud Show.
Speaker 2 (00:07):
It's the info you need to start your day in
the Palm Beaches and the Treasure Coast. As we take
a look at July's hurricane history, there of course six
months a hurricane season, but also, as you're aware, the
activity within them nowhere close to being equal. So as
we enter July, each of the previous three years we've
entered this month with renamed storms. This year we've had
(00:31):
two weak tropical storms thus far, so it is the
most benign start that we've had the hurricane season in
six years, so that's kind of a nice place to start.
Speaker 3 (00:40):
Now.
Speaker 1 (00:40):
It is servance that could impact Florida currently being monitored
by the National Hurricane Center, likely to be little more
than a rain event even if it did develop into anything,
and so not to be concerned about. As we take
a look at what July has historically produced and what's
happened before July. So first on the activity that has
occurred prior to July. This goes all the way back
(01:04):
to the official record keeping in eighteen fifty one. I
probably should revise this for the satellite age the more
I think about it, but just everything that have been
recorded seven and a half percent of all tropical storms
have occurred prior to July. Four percent of all recorded
hurricanes have happened prior to July. So based on typical activity,
(01:27):
that tells you that usually about ninety percent plus of
what is going to develop during hurricane season is still
in front of us now. July is the fourth most
active month for tropical storm development, the fifth most active
for hurricane formation. So what do we typically see during
the month? One named storm? We usually get one and
(01:50):
seventy percent of the time it stays the tropical storm.
Thirty percent of the time it reaches hurricane strength. So
there you go, and Saharan dust continues to be part
of our story. As we are entering July. We have
more making its way into our state today, as we
had a cloud that was just starting to move out
of this state yesterday. And so as long as that
(02:11):
Saharan dust continues to kick up off the coast of Africa,
that works as a tailwind in terms of helping mitigate
to traffical activity. And so that will be something to
watch throughout this month to see if the Saharan dust
continues to kick up and how strong it is.
Speaker 3 (02:25):
You know, I'll take it for what it does to
the hurricanes, potential hurricanes. But that's why my nose has
been itching probably one morning. It's bad.
Speaker 1 (02:34):
It's been consistent, yeah, I mean, it's dust has really
been in terms of major allergens. It's the only thing
that's been a huge deal out there over the past week.
Speaker 3 (02:41):
All Right, all right, let's go to look at some
Florida headlines. Florida's budget is signed. Governor d Santas yesterday
did veto over five hundred million dollars from it, including
two hundred million to buy land for the state's Wildlife Corridor,
but he did not veto raises for police, teachers and
other state employees. Budget includes two billion and tax relief
by permanently repealing the business rent tax, and over four
(03:04):
hundred million in savings for families through several tax exemptions,
sales tax exemptions year round and still some tax holidays
or will be a back to school sales tax holiday
in August and codified into law each year. President Trump
heading to the Everglades today ten o'clock is the opening
of the new five thousand bed detention center for illegal immigrants,
(03:26):
nicknamed Alligator Alcatraz. Meanwhile, Key West, while they're changing their
position on immigration enforcement City Commission voting yesterday and its
partnership with ICE coming just three months after the commission
approved a two to eighty seven g agreement with the
federal agency. Resolution commissioners voted on also states, though, that
Key West is not a sanctuary city, and bok Raton's
(03:49):
mayor hopes to lure more businesses from New York City
with the possibility that Democratic socialists Aron Mmdannie could soon
lead that city. Scott Singer, praising Florida's business environment, told
The New York he is encouraging big business to head
south to a more business friendly city, and wrote on
X in Boca they look to lower taxes, not raise them,
prioritize public safety while funding the police department. All these
(04:11):
things that Mamdani is against, those are your headlines.
