General Florida DiscussionsAnything related to Florida in general. From "natives" talking about things they know about, to visitors asking about details to make their visit more pleasant.
When i first got cable in 1986 i liked the music on the forecast. But it just went dowhill in the mid 90's.
Most of what i watch is 60 and 70's tv shows.
Pick up some music from The Rippingtons. That is who wrote and performed the music on those old Weather Channel days. I wound up buying every one of them they made on music CDs. It can still put me into nap mode in a hurry.
Connie and I are watching the Frasier TV series right now. We originally watched it on NetFlix and just recently bought the entire series on DVD.
Wound up getting 2.16" for this rain event. 0.37" of it today.
Looks like more rain in the forecast for tomorrow. Short break for Tuesday, and then more rain forecast for Wednesday and Thursday. Supposed to get pretty chilly on Friday night so we will be dragging out the tarps again for the pineapple plants.
Getting new growth on the citrus trees, and one of the pear trees behind the garage is putting out flowers like there is no tomorrow.
Connie had to let a lot of her Meyer's lemons just fall to the ground and rot. With this lockdown stuff, she didn't have much of anyone to give them to like she normally does. We really didn't have the surplus of tangerines like we normally do, but we kept up with eating them. Except for the one grove we have that the varmints pretty much wiped out.
What rainfall amounts do you see around your area? I don't know of any place in the state that has had 5" total yet. Not even 2" for my area for the year yet. Tampa is around 3" I won't see 14" by Aug.

Well, I don't know about other areas. I only monitor what is happening right here with my weather station gizmo. According to which, we have had 5.76" so far just in February. Except for some minor showers here and there, pretty much every appreciable rainstorm we have had is listed in this thread for the year.
We got 1.11" of rain today (Monday). Looks like we will probably get more through Wednesday.
I was actually going to take the vette out, but there were these popcorn style rainstorms all around us, and I decided against it. I am REALLY going to try to put more than 258 miles on the car in 2021.
