  Ce lundi 1er mai 2023 est, comme tous les 1er mai depuis 1948, un   jour férié . Il s’agit en effet de la Fête du   Travail .

Mais contrairement à ce que l’on pourrait penser, l’origine de cette fête n’est pas française, mais américaine, et remonte au 1er mai 1884,   comme l’indique le ministère du Travail, du Plein Emploi et de l’Insertion .

  Ahead of a complex of rain and thunderstorms moving in Saturday night and Sunday morning from the Gulf of Mexico, the National Weather Service has issued a Tornado Watch for a 10-county portion of Central Florida, including Osceola.

This is different from a Tornado Warning, which is notice that a tornado or strong storm that could include one has been confirmed by weather watchers or radar.

After a lull in the activity, another round is forecast to ...
