POLK COUNTY, Fla. — One year has passed since Jacqueline Nichols lost her youngest daughter after a crash involving a drunk driver, according to Polk County deputies. Nichols doesn't remember the impact of the crash June 7 of last year. She only remembers picking up her boyfriend from work and a stop at Taco Bell with Madeline as a passenger.

TAMPA, Florida — With more rain in the forecast this week, some South Tampa neighbors remain concerned over threats of flooding. James Adair is among those whose homes flooded during Hurricane Milton and spent thousands of dollars in repairs. He’s taking matters into his own hands by helping clear debris blocking his neighborhood’s stormwater systems and trying to get to the root of the problem through his own research of the ditches, stormwater drains and a nearby retention pond.

RT @AaronParseghian: Our live team coverage tonight on the Rays stadium deal fallout w/ @migueloctaviotv and @ECloskyWTSP https://t.co/Yta6…

Motion passes 5-2 for county to finance bonds for the stadium Rays say because of the county’s delays, the new stadium won’t be ready until 2029 and that they can’t afford it alone. Commissioners who voted in favor say they’re not spending more than what’s agreed upon https://t.co/TzBmI5B6m4
