| Catalina's Sunset |
Florida have a tropical climate because of its subtropical location which helped greatly to support tourism flow in the State. The humid weather does not stop millions of people from visiting the fun attraction on the island. According to one of my friends, who visited Orlando, Florida three months ago, the weather may change within few minutes. One minute is clear and quite and few minutes later is cloudy and dark.
Florida also has it share of seasonal hurricanes. Hurricanes strike parts of Florida annually causing lots of damage to the beaches.
Catalina much like Florida, have seen its share from tropical storms and hurricanes. For example, in July 2006 there was one major storm that left the visitors as well as locals startled. The effect of such storm on the small Island can be dramatic because local businesses rely on the tourists and if there is a major storm like that, many people will stay away from Catalina and the economy would suffer.
