Hi Nauti Bump.
My sister's also. She moved back to Maryland in October of that year, only to move BACK to FL in 2013
Hiya fatima {{{hugs}}}!
Stupid Sally got me drenched in the parking lot at work. I went out at lunch for my walk and the heavens opened. Man- it was torrential. We’ve gotten a soaking from her.
Slow Sally will dump plenty more rain as it creeps northward. The Keys are getting fire hosed.
Thanks for the ping NN
Seems like this one came up all of a sudden.
You can tell its real rainy the bars are all full,LOL!
We've had Sally all day and its rained all day long.We've probably had 4"-6" with steady 1" a hour for some time.
Barometer looks like it's headed to Naples.Barometer there has been at 29.65 for a while. A lot of water temps are down some close to ten degrees from 90 degree water to near 80 degree and a few upper 70's which happens when the clouds cover the sun and rain never stops.
Salinity has gone down 6-8 points from low 40's to near sea water at 35 ppm.Most of the key buoys are down so it's hard to say what where and when other than radar which is a big help but the rain field is pretty big.
I hope this is the worst we get this year but you never know since we are barely half way there.

Hiya, AB! Thanks for checking in!
The Trumptilla boating extravaganzas are fantastic!
Watched it all day yesterday. Water temps are ripe for development. No real land interaction to inhibit as the storm crossed the Everglades/FL Straits. Now in open Gulf.
THanks,its all powerline,difference between the parties is astounding.
Checking in, ma’am.
And sir - loving your H.L. Mencken page, dark tho’ our times may appear to be.
Tampa area here: we had a huge downpour earlier this afternoon - had no idea it had a name. It was definitely intense, but as a Floridian for 11 years now it was just weather.
Ah, a fellow aficianado of all things meteorological. Upgrading my monitoring gear is on my domestic chore list - maybe after the holidays. Also, finishing my ham radio license studies, getting my broadcast ticket, joining the ARRL (they play a big part in severe weather networks), and getting the tubes hot in the HW-101 transceiver behind me. (I’m planning ahead.) I’ve been threatening that for 45 years, and now I mean it. At one time, I was taking courses to get my meteorology degree, or at least a cert. Got the prerequisite Meteorology 101, Ocean Sciences 102, Chem 101, etc. I never finished for one good reason: MONEY. I was in hock for student loans until recently. I’ve been a NWS grad storm spotter for 25 years, got recertified thru the NWS Birmingham office again about seven years ago. I retired on disability, and I told my wife that I think I’m finally gonna finish a degree that I started forty years ago. Possibly online, out of pocket, and weather related.
Why, thank you, sir (or Madam, as the case may be). Tip o’ the horns to you.
Ham radio is a valuable endeavor, particularly when the SHTF.
