Lake Okee Record Low. Low to the Southeast

Just a couple quick notes...Lake Okeechobee hit a record low water level today with a depth of 8.94 feet. This is after tying the low yesterday at 8.97 feet.

Watching the area of disturbed weather to our southeast that will bring some much needed rain to the area. After looking at all the available model data tonight looks like the system will not become very potent. The actual track of the system appears to be towards the central west coast of Florida, this is after a some relocation of where the center of the system is supposed to be towards the east. This gives the impression that the area is heading more towards us. By tomorrow morning we will see rain in the area and will also know how much the storm will strengthen (if any at all) and a better guess of the future location of the weather.

Almost There

Just a few days to go before hurricane season 2007 will be underway. Hopefully by now I was to have had a new web site up, that has not happened. Do not worry I will be posting all the information here. From my personal analysis to model data I will publish here when there is something going on. In between you find almost anything else. Please check back.

Home weather station is back to normal with wind data not being uploaded again. I had to reset the weather station and it came right back up. Nice easy fix this time around. I will also have a link to the home weather data shortly here on the blog.

Have a good night.

A Bit of Rain

I am still getting the blog and a site set up for hurricane season so postings may still be sporadic at best, but I am here.

We did have a thunderstorm overnight around 3am, a very nice surprise. Also saw some scattered showers during the morning and some severe weather out west over the Everglades. Next best chance of rain will be Monday with the passing of a cold front, but at this time it looks somewhat light.

I will leave it at that for now and keep checking for updates over the next few weeks.
