Belt issue
I hadn't driven my car in a while and thought I'd give it a run today. So last night I took it and filled it up with gas, I didn't beat on it in the slightest going to or from home.
I get in the car this morning start it up and as see some/these problems (check gauge light, no power steering, wide band wasn't giving a reading etc..) as I'am pulling out of the garage, I stop. I get out and see the belt on the floor.
What the hell could of caused this? I'am in FL, the temperature has changed dramatically, but I doubt thats the reason. My belt has been known to come off in the past but thats only when I have the motor under a load.
I have not checked the pullies or bolts etc... yet but I think just due to the history I've had with this re-occurring problem I'm going to order a belt tensioner from Katech.
Can someone give me some input please to what could be causing this?
Thank you in advance.

I have all stock pulleys.
I ordered a belt tensioner from Texas Speed and with looking at the alignment and other things I will hopefully will resolve this problem.
