An enormous expedition. Seems it's been a strange summer in coastal California, cool then scorching, ocean still cold. MattyB puts me at one degree of separation from you (he visited Miami).

Fla. climate center: 100-119 days>85 F
USDA 1990 hardiness zone 9B
Current USDA hardiness zone 10a
4 km inland from Indian River; 27º N (equivalent to Brisbane)

Central Orlando's urban heat island may be warmer than us

No record of a hurricane passing over this island (yet!).  

Summer maximum rainfall - variable averaging 900-1150mm (35-45") - Perfect drainage on black volcanic rocky soil.  

Nice sunsets!

Darold, are you using the "classic blue" skin? Mine stopped its search features yesterday, so I am on the "new version". Anyway, if you know who wrote something, I find it easiest to go to their profile and search from their topics and posts. (But that only works for stuff from the past year)
