CONSEQUENCES
The current
position of Hurricane Isabel is about 370 miles Northeast of the
northern Leeward Islands. Due to the storm’s distance from Florida,
it does not currently pose a serious risk to Palm Beach County
residents, but it remains a major storm that the Emergency
Operations Center (EOC) will be monitoring. Please Note: This
will be the last Situation Report for the weekend, unless situations
warrant.
