Great shot

Re: Current weather
 

The low last night was 71, and it rained. The only way I convince myself that it is not the rainy season is the fact that it is dark when I get home. As far as I am concerned, the weather is perfect.

Re: Current weather
 

Its 64F & raining.. great weather. :^)

Re: Current weather
 

73F and rainy. Got down to 67 last night. About as cold as it gets for the most part. Record cold is around 60 for any given day. 70 and below is sweatshirt weather here!

Re: Current weather
 

Midnight and the weather has warmed up to 78f/25c after weeks of cold rain - about 20 inches this month so far!! But it keeps the island green and we don't have to bother with rain catchment from roofs like the dry islands do. The night-time temps got down to 68f at the lows and the Dominicans had warm hats and padded jackets on - the Europeans just turned the fans off!!! lol!

Re: Current weather
 

Had a nice pleasant day in the 60s today but cold tonight. 35F as of 10pm, forecast to get down to 31F. Fourth frost this season. I've left some fruit bunches hanging and may harvest one or two tomorrow since they probably wont size up any more at this point.

high winds to come

Re: Current weather
 

High of 60F and low of 40 forcast for Fri and Sat.. Our coldest S Fla weather so far this winter. I'm wearing sweats and a hat already to walk the dog. Will have to protect the basil, artichokes and parsley. Need to take a closer look at the 3 bunches hanging to see how filled in they are.

Re: Current weather
 

Yes, I'm pretty much exactly on the other side of the state on the S.W. Coast. This is an early cold front... might have wind chills in the 20s here with ambient temps in the 30s. Hope there is a lot of wind to keep the frost away. Only one night of actual cold weather though.

Re: Current weather
 

NWS says it will be 41 here on Friday night and 44 on Saturday night. It will probably be a little warmer than that. NWS underestimates the warming influence of Lake Okeechobee. But really anything below 50 makes for unhappy plants.

Re: Current weather
 

I keep checking the forecast and it seems to be changing... how typical :ha: I am doubting that we'll go into the 30s here, 40s are bad enough... not ready to protect plants yet :coldbanana:

Re: Current weather
 

Checked my outside thermometer at 0630 and our low was 44F. It's 55 now.

Brought some recently potted seedlings in last night. Nothing that has been potted for a while so I don't find a kitchen full of ants again. A mistake not to be repeated. lol

Everthing outside still looks good. Very thin coating of frost on the roof of the cars.

Re: Current weather
 

48 was the low this morning, but it has since only warmed up to 53 and the wind is howling.

Re: Current weather
 

Official low here was 40.5 at sunrise this morning. I moved all the sensitive plants into the shed and covered my germination chamber with a blanket yesterday. Everything seems to be unharmed... didn't see any signs of a frost.

Re: Current weather
 

Winter has finally arrived. And with a vengeance. Plenty of rain and cold temps. The bananas are surviving, but don't seem to be enjoying it. Tiny brown dots are appearing on the p-stems and petioles of the plants. I'm guessing this is a result of the cold. Absolutely no growth on Ice Cream (Tall Namwah) and Mysore, and the flower bud on Raja Puri has slowed to a crawl in its emergence. It's raining right now, and due to dip down to 36 at night in a few days.

Re: Current weather
 

50 degrees for Christmas Eve :)

Re: Current weather
 

Today was 43 and lots of fog, down to 29 tonight. Storm coming Wednesday, 80% ice to rain, 43 to 32. May be 2" of snow. Damn.
