I also posted it at the Caribbean - Central America Weather Thread for those Caribbean folks who visit that thread first before comming to this Talking Tropics forum.

[Florida1118]

Less than 80 days people! Just in case you didn't know, the Red letters in the main post means the event has past and blue means it is taking place within the specified dates.
