Where is this road? I'd like to check it out on my next trip to T-SP.

I wish I could give you our rain up here in Chicago - this is one of the rainiest July's on record. Already recorded nearly 10" this month (normal is less than 4"). And there is still much more rain in the forecast...

It is Gunn Hwy in NW Tampa (Odessa-Lutz area) about 25 mins from me. Tampa Bay Downs Racetrack is minutes away from this particular nursery. There were several others that looked tempting...but no more room! Greg where its now 83F at 940a humidity "only" 77% at the dewpoint of 77F...and still overcast. Sounds like palm weather to me!

Very muggy here as well, and it's not even 9am yet.
74F, 88% humidity and a very sticky 70F dewpoint. The humidity rolled in last night with the storms from Wisconsin. Have only had the a/c on 3 days this summer but when it's this sticky out, I have to reconsider.

Greg have you really received little rain? Down here in Clearwater/St. Pete its rained a bunch the last week or so.

Shaun-

Unfortunatly, I too have missed much of this month's rains (as can be seen on the below image from my wetaher station). Ive had susbstantial rain only one day this month!

North or South of Lutz Lake Fern Road?

Just S of Lutz Lake Fern Rd. It's fun there! Yes, not much rain. Mon AM we had .70" and it was our only appreciable rain since July 4th! It thunders, it roars, we see it, we hear it, and....drizzle....or nothing then the sun comes out and it bakes! I am sooooooooooo frustrated! Greg

Wow, Larry, that's definitely a shock. I'd say at my home, we've had decent rainfall at least 6-8 times this month. These are times in which I've been home. Hopefully we get some more this weekend. I wouldn't mind a weak tropical storm or two to dump massive amounts of rain. :)

Greg, do you get to Indian Rocks Beach much? I know "Wrinkle City", but even thou I am 36, that is my favorite place in the world to go.

Greg
That's great I love finding good prices on palms..
and florida is surely the place !
I know they are going to realy shape up the yard it finally quit raining here !
You lucky sucker , Send me a bizie !

Now I need a truck to get truly BIG palms! and a little rain would really really be nice! They are promising a rainy period Sun/Mon we'll see. Indian Rocks Beach is cool. I';ve been everywhere from NPR down to St Pete and Sarasota and Venice. I LOVE Sarasota because it is a little more tropical than here and they actually landscape the city and raods. Greg where it is still NOT raining lol
