Ocala Weather May 2008 with a wild fire update |
|
|
May is here and the humidity is coming back. Most days will be close to 90 during the day and the high 60's at night. It's just a little humid and I find myself turning on the AC most afternoons.
We are in the "dry season". It hasn't rained a drop in over a month. This is unusually dry even for the dry season which ends at the end of May.
You probably see terrible wild fires in other parts of Florida. In the 4 years I've been in Ocala we have never had a major fire. A couple of time fires in other counties were so bad I could smell the smoke from miles away but Marion county is pretty much untouched. The fires always seem to be south or east of Ocala. You'd think the Ocala national forest, which is 300,000 acres would catch fire once in a while but never sems to. Why, I don't know.
That's May in Ocala. Next month the afternoon thunder storms return.
