Man made global warming is to blame.
I live in CA. I am accustomed to these things. Didn’t know this could happen in FL, what with the humidity.
this is sad...but this happens every year at this time...and we go thru the same thing...you would think that the officials in charge would do something to be ready for this....the other thing i find interesting (as i live in daytona) is that on monday 5/13 the news was reporting that some of these fires were caused due to controlled burns that got out of hand due to high winds over the weekend...now there isn’t a word about that and they are shifting the blame to arson....makes you wonder who is trying to take the heat off you....
I remember a number of times when I lived in Malabar, having to come home from work and standby with a garden hose...
I just left Vero Beach and headed south on 95...southbound is open. Northbound, on the other hand, is close for Hwy. 60 to Hwy 192. Traffic wanting to exit at Vero was backed up about 5 miles. I’m hoping the Turnpike is open heading north, at least to Yeahaw Junction.
