The start of the wet season is typically hit or miss in central Florida, and this year the sea breeze has kept much of the rain from making it back to the coast. Last year we had a very wet June (16") when the steering flow from the west allowed inland thunderstorms to push back to and across the coast.

I have a friend in North Brevard County, jueast st 35 miles to the south of Daytona Beach Shores, that measured 8" in 3 days during the week that South Florida received flooding rains. I was lucky to get 0.99" (the bulk of my June total to date) in one day during that week. Relatives a few miles to the NW of me had only 0.25". I'm seeing shrubs in the landscape that have been in the ground for years where there is no lawn irrigation dying. Unirrigated lawns are toasty brown.
