Alfredo Ferdin, 48, listens to a handheld radio outside of Santos Corner in Immokalee on Tuesday, waiting to hear the forecast for Tropical Storm Ernesto. Ferdin, who has stayed at Santos Corner on and off for the past 20 years, says he thought he would be safe staying but was monitoring the situation with the storm and relaying the information to others.
