A storm formingin the Gulf of Mexico is predicted to grow into a hurricane that could do damage to the 30A area where many Nashvillians vacation over the upcoming fall break.
Driving the news: The storm, which will likely be named Helene, is expected to make landfall later this week between the Florida panhandle and Tampa, according to yesterday's prediction from the National Hurricane Center. Nashville's fall break is Oct. 5-12.

The storm could bring heavy rain to the Nashville area as well, though it's too soon to predict its impact.
