Matthew92 Posted February 16, 2021 Author Report Share Posted February 16, 2021 Screenshots taken from around 6:30-7:15am. Escambia to Walton Counties. Arctic air was moving due East. As mentioned before, due to this being an advective event and the cold air not coming from the N/NW, normal microclimates like Gulf Breeze got about as cold as the mainland in Pensacola. And as seen in Okaloosa and Walton counties, the arctic airmass didn't advance far East enough- otherwise similar temps as Escambia would have occurred. In fact, going East towards Bay county is where the freezing line stopped at. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

palmsOrl Posted February 18, 2021 Report Share Posted February 18, 2021 I think winter is over for us on the Peninsula of Florida. I could be wrong, we have had freezes in Central Florida in the last half of February and even in March, but I doubt it is happening this year. -Michael Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JLM Posted February 18, 2021 Report Share Posted February 18, 2021 Hopefully if we do get another freeze it will be light and that will be the end. The maples are already flowering. I question the identity of the maple in my yard, it didnt bloom out until almost May of last year, Lowe's or whoever did the tag for it may have mislabeled it?

Rare as that is, northwestern part of the country sees the white stuff often enough also.. Makes for great pictures no doubt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matthew92 Posted April 2, 2021 Author Report Share Posted April 2, 2021 Got very chilly this morning. From checking weather stations in the area, it looks like solid upper and even mid 30's in towns along the northern bay. Too windy for frost. Don't mind it too much. Plenty of heat coming for the year. 10 day forecast has nothing above 80. Fine with me. Still throws me off a little after living in Orlando the last two years. I don't miss the frequent spells of almost 90 degree weather throughout Nov-April... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Covered up some stuff that has new growth, letting citrus go on its own though, dont really have anything big enough to cover it up. I dont really enjoy anything above 85F, but i hate anything below 50F, so i really cant live anywhere and be happy about temps lol I have low 80's in the forecast for both Wednesday and Thursday.

Matthew92 Posted April 3, 2021 Author Report Share Posted April 3, 2021 34 deg here this morning. Patchy frost. Heavy on my windshield though. Couldn't see out of it going to work and had to "de-ice" it. Weird doing that in April. Although this really isn't unusual to have a cold snap like this late March/early April. Moved in all my seed sprouting projects. A few twigs of new citrus growth look wilted. Flowers/developing fruits look to have held on thankfully. It's odd though because as soon as the sun comes up, it feels like late spring. Potted plants are drying out quickly with the low humidity, lack of clouds, and wind. Thankfully there's more than one day of rain showing up in the 10 day forecast. I'm weary of the dreaded 1+ month spring drought that seems to happen some years. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JP202 Posted August 14, 2021 Report Share Posted August 14, 2021 I was reviewing the winter data posted on archived data. I was searching to see how cooler the winter actually was, because this summer has averaged 10+ degrees cooler than usual with the heat index. And I recall telling my wife we were seeing daily temperatures 10-15 degrees below average throughout the whole winter. To my surprise, all their data was different, showing 48 as the lowest overnight temperature on their records, and then the global warming feedback at the bottom. They are intentionally altering the data. I am going to begin keeping a log of our daily temperatures. We had 1 day that the high was 41, as I had to run an excavator with no heat, and remember it dearly. Thankfully I found this feed, as it was extremely hard to find any proof on the internet that temperatures even came close to the 30’s, it’s horrible and tyrannical government manipulation.
