Flooding in Southwest Florida from incoming storm. (CREDIT: WINK News) While the storm pushed through the Gulf of Mexico, Southwest Florida saw some of the effects of the rainmaking event. Lee County Sanibel Island saw consistent rainfall from the storm throughout the afternoon and evening on Friday. The combination of consistent rainfall and winds did keep people away from the beach. Michael Sosebee, vacationing in Sanibel, said “it’s cutting it a day short. We just want to get ahead of it.” Not all are upset about the rain. Sanibel residents, John and Cathy Cameron saw the glass half full. John said “you really can, I mean, enjoy, you know, along with the sunny weather, the rainy weather too. It’s just another side of paradise.” John and Cathy do have some experience with this type of weather because they knew the game plan. John and Cathy said “time to get the generator running and the water and gasoline and everything else.” Submit Copyright ©2024 Fort Myers Broadcasting. All rights reserved.
