Yup, it is Olga. Hopefully, Florida will get the rain they need.

Yes! Look at that. Olga is getting entrained in to the storm system and has become very convectively active. Anyone in Florida on the west coast have an anemometer? Cedar Key has a NOAA tower there- 10 meters. Will be interesting to see what kinds of winds come out of this and what the eventual best track will be. It was still an easily track-able low level feature today.
