Here it is, middle of the afternoon and I'm seeing lots of low to mid 30's on the Wundermap in Texas and Louisiana. Forecast doesn't look to pretty either. Good luck everyone! This is where you pat yourself on the back and rest easy tonight if your not a zone pusher. Curse the blue norther.

Low Humidity 1 2 3

Summer is here in South Florida. The Gulf Stream is about 90 degrees. Our low temperatures are angling towards the low 80's.The most difficult aspect ,however, is the relative humidity.When my wife and family travel West, one of the most enjoyable features is the lack of humidity. 110 degrees F feels like 85 degrees F here. My question is : Do you realize how nice it is when you live year round in that environment? How does it feel when you come to Florida? Is there anything bad you can say about the lack of humidity?

Tropical Cyclone Dorian 1 2 3
by palmsOrl- 89 replies
- 3.9k views
Okay, so it appears that Tropical Storm Dorian will pose a significant threat to peninsular Florida this weekend, Labor Day Weekend. Currently, the storm is forecast to make landfall on the coast of East Central Florida. This is, of course, subject to change, but track forecasts have improved dramatically in recent years. What is more uncertain is the strength of Dorian. While previously believed that the tropical cyclone would pass directly over Hispaniola, the computer model consensus now has Dorian passing between Hispaniola and Puerto Rico or directly over Puerto Rico. This would cause far less disruption to the storm's circulation and would leave the storm m…

About this time every year someone starts a thread about Winter Lows in the Northern Hemisphere. Such a thread is somehow therapeutic for PTers anxious about how cold may affect their palms - at least we know we aren't alone. So, I'll kick off this year's discussion. This morning was the lowest temp since last March: 48.4F Predicted: 46F Current temp: 56.3F at 10:30 a.m. Tomorrow's predicted low: 43F Then a warming trend until the next cold front. I am making no attempts to move/protect palms at this time. After sunup, temps rise quickly.

Technically its our second cold front of this season. The last one was very mild that never impacted South Florida. This one will have high 40's F in Southern Miami Dade County. Still mild but we are overdue for another cold winter. Lets keep our fingers crossed.

There is alot of discussion on this Board about Zone 11. The definition of Zone 11 seems nebulous at best when it discusses "an average minimum temperature of 40 degrees F."What does that mean?The last time I remember it dropping below 40 degrees F. in this area was 1989.(Palm Beach)At anyrate, the National Arbor Day Foundation completed an extensive revision of this map ,which is available on the Wikipedia Hardiness Zone article. This article also lists the Hardiness Zones for numerous American cities.In California,San Diego,Los Angeles and San Francisco are identified as Zone 10. The only American cities designated Zone 11 are Miami,Florida and Honolulu,Hawaii.As it rel…

Well, as noone has done it yet, I thought I'd start another current weather thread. For me today is going to be 24C, and blue skies. In the next couple of days there is a chance of showers, but maybe the cloud cover will up the night temps. The nights are taking a while to come back. 8.1C last night. regards Tyrone

That time of the year is still several months away, so dont worry about it yet. But, why am I making this thread then? We have Invest 90L off the east coast on...*checks date*…. January 16th! This Invest area is not expected to really do anything, and has been tagged with a 0% chance of development by the NHC today. Satellite data indicates that it *may* be a Subtropical Storm, but this is such a marginal case where it may or may not be that its best to just wait to call it anything until post season analysis. A lot of studying will go into this system im sure. 90L will go on to impact Nova Scotia and Newfoundland with gusty winds and rain. Heres some satellite …
