Ernesto Loses Punch Before Striking Florida
Tropical Storm Ernesto failed to strengthen as it neared Florida, easing hurricane fears after moving through eastern Cuba and crossing the Straits with 45 mph winds. Forecasters warned of heavy rain up to 10 inches, with authorities preparing sandbags and National Guard and state police ready. A Miami woman died in a crash blamed on hydroplaning as rain intensified. NASA scrubbed a shuttle launch due to the storm, while watches extended along the coastlines of Georgia, the Carolinas, and eastern Florida.
