Re: Memorial Day Weekend Area to Watch

But rain is what we need and we need it badly. So hopefully, if anything, we get some moisture to create the sea breeze showers and storms.




The forecaster on Channel 6 in Miami-Fort Lauderdale was saying tonight that Lake Okeechobee is within an inch of its all-time low and probably will get there in the next day or two unless there's some unexpected rainfall. The most stringent water restrictions I can remember in 20 years of living here have been imposed, and the landscape is starting to look like my parents' yard in Arizona. A rainmaker (so long as it's accompanied by minimal severe weather) would be most welcome here -- even if it means a soggy, gloomy weekend.
