2008 hurricane season mostly spared Florida

2008 hurricane season mostly spared Florida
THE BUSY 2008 HURRICANE SEASON BROUGHT SEVERAL CLOSE CALLS. BUT FLORIDA HASN’T BEEN HIT BY A MAJOR HURRICANE FOR THREE YEARS.
BY EVAN S. BENN
ebenn@MiamiHerald.com
Forget about cones of danger, storm shutters and supply kits — for six months, anyway.
The 2008 Atlantic hurricane season officially ends Sunday.
Despite a few close calls and a drenching from Tropical Storm Fay, Florida escaped the season mostly unscathed. Our Caribbean neighbors were less fortunate, with Cuba and Haiti getting pounded by a succession of major hurricanes.
”This will probably go down as a nonmemorable year for Florida and a catastrophic year for Haiti and Cuba,” National Hurricane Center Director Bill Read said. “But we came very close here a couple of times. Any small change in steering currents could have brought us a direct hit.”
As it turned out, Florida’s only direct hit came from Fay, a meandering, wet mess that flooded parts of Central and North Florida during its mid-August trek across the state.
Fay made history for being the first Atlantic tropical storm to make four separate landfalls in Florida: on Aug. 18 in Key West, Aug. 19 in Cape Romano, Aug. 21 in Flagler Beach and Aug. 23 in Carrabelle.
A major hurricane hasn’t struck Florida since Hurricane Wilma in 2005

Boat parade back in Boca Raton and looking for boaters

Boat parade back in Boca Raton and looking for boaters
By Patty Pensa | South Florida Sun-Sentinel
December 1, 2008
Last year, disappointed boaters followed the normal route of Boca Raton Click here for restaurant inspection reports’s annual boat parade only to find there was no parade after all.
Budget cuts in 2007 caused the first blackout in more than three decades of the holiday tradition. Now with private backing, the parade is making a comeback, scheduled for Dec. 20 along the Intracoastal Waterway. Summit Brokerage Services, a Boca Raton financial services company, is the parade’s lead sponsor with a more than $15,000 offering.
“I was thrilled to support it,” said Marshall Leeds, the company’s chief executive officer, who has watched the parade for 15 years and will be in it with his 70-foot yacht for the first time.
The parade was cut last year in late November about 2 ½ weeks before its scheduled date. When Leeds called the city to try to save the parade, it was too late. The city in 2007 cut special events and programs, laid off 45 employees and eliminated 142 part- and full-time positions because of state-mandated budget cuts.
