The news said there was a water spout off of John's Pass today....pretty close to where I am 10-15 mins.

[JonathanBelles]

I got a couple drips coming down now!

[HURAKAN]

0.90 inches of rain since this afternoon.

[JonathanBelles]

Land Breeze just went through Tampa.

[SimplyHavingFun]

We are getting pounded in Northern Pasco Co. right now. Very heavy rain, lightning and some pretty decent winds. What timing, I have to be up and head out for an 11 hour roadtrip @ 5am!

[dizzyfish]

Hey - someone in my neck of the woods!

Yeah, we got the surprise storm again this morning. 1-4/10".

[KWT]

Well its good to see that some of you over in Florida have been getting some good rains yesterday.

[HURAKAN]

More is on the way.

[tropicana]

With all the rains, at least the temperature was kept down a little in spots. Miami's high of 85F was the coolest daytime high in 19 days... since May 30 when it was also 85F.
1.76 inches at the airport, but in excess of 2 1/4 inches in West Kendall.

Humidity is at 97% at the moment. It was 98% a few minutes ago.

[KWT]

Yep more shower and storm activity pushing into western Florida right now though I note that central parts don't have that much in the eway of rainfall to access to the SW.

Ouch 98%!

[HURAKAN]

0.75 inches of rain since this morning.

Yesterday my anemometer measured a gust of 40 mph @ 12:20 pm.

[JonathanBelles]

I slept through the rain last night, but according the NWS I got .08"

[KWT]

Oh a tropical storm force gust then!
Also 0.75 inches is a nice decent rainfall should expect more as well over the next 6-12hrs I should expect.

[HURAKAN]

We should see more showers later today. Right now they are concentrated mostly over southern Florida and the Keys.

Right now the temperature is 74.4°F. The high today so far was 76.2°F @ 9:03 AM. Low temp was 70.0°F @ 10:11 AM.
