No Updates on Sandra Prince Murder

Nothing New in Sandra Prince Case

It’s been seven months since the Temple Terrace Police Department reclassified Sandra Prince’s missing person investigation to a murder investigation and offered a $100,000 reward for information leading to the arrest and conviction of the person(s) responsible. There are no updates in the case, but when we lose one of our own so horrifically, it’s difficult to not see justice served. If you have any information that could be useful to Temple Terrace investigators, you can call them at 813-989-7110.

Hurricane Predictions Trimmed, But Not By Much

The National Hurricane Center issued a revised outlook report for the 2013 Atlantic Hurricane Season. While forecasters anticipate a slightly less active season than thought earlier in the year, they still say there’s a 70 percent chance for an “above-normal season” when it comes to activity levels.

As it stands now, the government’s forecasting agency anticipates we’ll see 13 to 19 named storms; 6 to 9 hurricanes; and 3 to 5 major hurricanes. This only a few less storms than predicted back in May of this year.

Remember, folks, hurricane season continues until Nov. 30, so we still have a long way to go.

Are you ready for what may come, Temple Terrace?
