 GULF BREEZE, Fla. (AP) - The outlook was improving for Cathy Hart and thousands of others Tuesday along the storm-battered Gulf Coast, where signs of normal life were everywhere just two days after Hurricane Dennis pummeled the region. Power was starting to come on, stores were opening their doors, and lines for ice and water were getting shorter.
Hart waited a half-hour in line for gas, and not wanting to waste what was in her tank she kept the air conditioner off — a prescription for misery with the temperature approaching 90.
Things were a little better at home. She at least has a generator to run a fan, and Hurricane Dennis spared her Gulf Breeze home, which was damaged 10 months ago by Hurricane Ivan.
