Tropical Storm Fay lingered over Southern Florida, bringing close to a foot of rain to the region, and could deliver a third blow to the state, according to forecast models.

The National Weather Service said Tropical Storm Fay struck Florida twice. On Monday afternoon, Fay made landfall over Key West Florida at 3 p.m. and made landfall again at 5 a.m. over Cape Romano.

Thousands of homes were reported to have lost power, and there was flooding throughout the state as rainfall in some areas totaled 10 inches, the Weather Service said.
