Lightning On The Water, Something's Fishy, Somber Task: FL News

FLORIDA — It's been a week of highs and lows with some light moments in between.

Highs included the Lightning's gala boat parade following their Stanley Cup win and a Tampa doctor's baseball collection that sold for a record $21.5 million.

It was a low moment for the Florida Task Force 3 from Tampa Bay as members returned home after finding no one alive at Surfside. Equally distressing to coastal residents were the fish kills from red tide that deposited hundreds of tons of dead, stinky fish on Tampa Bay beaches.

As for a light moment, Gov. Ron DeSantis announced he's selling "Don't Fauci My Florida" koozies.
