And now its time to play with the weather sites.

I, like a lot of you, enjoy tracking and studying severe weather. Looks like after that last round, my GR3 will be gathering dust for a few days. Hmm, maybe now i can go see what that loud noise was in my backyard.

How was that squall line going through Orlando? Up here it was pretty lame but I was working inside at the time.
Now down in south Florida it packed a punch. Saw a video of the scoreboard at The Doral being blown over during a gust. That was cool. :grin:

Heya, Here was just a big rain event, i honestly don't remember even hearing one punch of thunder or a significant wind gust. I did record 2.9 inches of rain though, much needed rain too!


Glad you came out unscathed :D

I forgot to mention Ocala, we are supposed to set record lows here tonight in most areas. I think 39 is the official low for the date, im anxious to see if we do. I bet it'll be a bit chilly in your neck of the woods as well. Any new records for you ya think?

Hit 39 last night. NWS spot forecast calling for 35 tonight. 33 is the record. If the winds die completely then we have a chance but they are supposed to stay around 5mph.
Did you see that seabreeze front that kicked up  Wednesday evening? Mighty summerlike. :grin:
