With the storm moving out, the big story of the day for us is the shooting of the tiger in Moorpark this morning. Zeke Barlow (zbarlow@VenturaCountyStar.com) will be the lead writer on the story along with Jean Ortiz (jortiz@VenturaCountyStar.com) who has been covering the tiger since the cat's tracks were first spotted more than a week ago. Many of you have already chimed in with your reaction to the shooting on the comments section of the story online. We expect to cover that part of the story in print tomorrow, too.

We haven't forgotten about the weather, though. The storm is expected to finally move through the area by tomorrow. In the meantime, we're still watching the Santa Paula Airport as well as other high impact areas of the county (La Conchita, Casitas Springs, etc.) for damage. We also have available an interesting story looking at what will follow all these storms and the damages they wrought: lawsuits.
And if we get better numbers on the impact on agriculture, we'll also have that story available.

And there are several stories off the wire that might make it to Page One tomorrow:
President Bush is in Russia; the latest Field Poll in California shows Gov. Schwarzenegger's popularity slipping; and the Supreme Court hands down a ruling that could have profound impacts on the California prison system.
