Hope lightning did not hit near your house.

Pedantic moment: 26.2° N is the latitude of Fort Lauderdale

Tropic of Cancer is at 23° 26' N latitude. So, we in Florida regularly get bombarded by sub-tropical storms and, from June 1 to November 30, by tropical storms ! Lucky us !

Latitude of Orlando is 28.55°N.
