MOSES

[gsytch]

MORE RAIN in Tampa Bay~! I guess we are getting the stalled fronts. Feb has produced over 3" of rainfall, in 4 separate storms, after Jan recorded almost 7". Having this moisture is not good for plants recovering from freeze damage. They are finally predicting warmer and sunnier for next week. We are overdue as we missed the warmth of SoFla this past week. 41.9f at wake-up this morning and a high of 53f yesterday is not acceptable!

[psyclone]

i'm not sure how rain harms plants recovering from freezes, especially ones that took place weeks ago. we really needed the rain and i'm glad we got it. it has broken the back of the developing drought in the tampa bay area and caused our landscape to green up significantly in recent weeks...and looks alot better than december's freeze dried brown. now with a huge warm up on the way that added soil moisture should cause spring to just explode around here. I can't wait!

[gsytch]

Tropical Plants recovering from freezes can get mold/rot due to wet and cold conditions. In their native areas, this doesn't occur as most of their "cool" seasons are rather dry. Therefore, root rot sets in and new growth can become mildewed and spread in the ideal environment that is cool and wet.

The predicted warmup this coming week is anticipated with a HIGH degree. 70's all week will feel balmy - yet it is really just normal. Funny.

[psyclone]

the tropicals in the tampa bay area are already largely wiped out. tropicals are a gamble around here, and the last two winters yielded a "00" on the roulette. there are no coconut palms remaining in my neighborhood and we had some good sized ones (probably dating back to after the '89 freeze). too bad. that which did survive is in recovery mode. at this point, if it looks dead, it probably is and replacement is in order. it's darn cold out there tonight and many folks in pasco could freeze yet again or at least have some frost formation. tomorrow respresents the first baby step of the great warm up. bring it...

Ya it definatly is a gamble. We're not North enough to be guaranteed a freeze but not south enough to be safe. Oh Tampa. In other News...

Everyone,

Please do not post full advisories on here. There is nothing more annoying than scrolling down for minutes trying to find what somebody actually said. If you want to post advisories, please only post parts and link or paraphrase (preferable). I like to talk to people, not lists of advisories.

Thanks!

No rain in site for Florida...



Not good for the drought. Hopefully we can get a nice soaking system soon enough.

[Patrick99]

I think that:

1) Our winter is over, and has been over for some time now
2) We're pretty well socked in with dryness and could be a while before we get any meaningful rain

Nice little shower a couple mornings ago, but it seems that those easterly flow showers are about the best we can hope for.

[psyclone]

this is the kind of weather i've been waiting for...days of endless sun with warm temps and clear, mild nights. no heat or ac needed. i think residents and visitors alike are pretty happy. good riddance to winter.

Got to love all of the days here with highs around 80F and lows in the low to mid 60s in South Florida. It actually just got warm enough here this afternoon for me to turn on the AC. Second time i have used the AC this winter. Last time was two weekends ago.

Looks like no cold fronts in sight. Lots of high pressure and easterly windflow. After the record-breaking cold December we had, looks like we are making up for it.

Won't be too long before we turn our attention to the tropics as Hurricane season is creeping closer each day.

[psyclone]

for the time being, we're getting free ac near the coast compliments of the still frigid shelf waters. late this afternoon it was 70 here and 82 just to the east in lakeland.
