Stormy siblings: What separates a Tropical from a Subtropical Storm?
SUMMARY: In the CSRA, people often hear about tropical and subtropical storms during hurricane season. Tropical storms are fueled solely by warm ocean waters, similar to a gas-guzzler car, with a well-defined warm core. Subtropical storms, like hybrid cars, get energy both from warm ocean water and from the contrast between warm and cold air, allowing them to form over cooler waters and have a cooler center higher up. Despite their differences, both storm types can bring heavy rain, strong winds, and flooding. It’s important to stay informed and prepared regardless of the storm classification.

Hebron Christian’s Dean Livingston headed to MLB Draft | FOX 5 News
SUMMARY: Hebron Christian’s Dean Livingston, Class 2A Region 8 Two-Way Player of the Year, is headed to the MLB Draft this weekend.
