Double Rainbow from Summer Storms (Pictures Added)


There’s something especially unique about the thunderstorms we experience during the summer. These big fluffy white clouds with gnarly dark thunderstorms underneath are breathtaking. The storms are so visually stunning that their appearance becomes a hallmark of summers in Florida. It’s important to note that what could be viewed as a disadvantage when comparing seasons should in fact be viewed as one of summers best qualities. These little clusters of energy can be exciting and even create completely cemetrical rainbows with the double rainbow flare. Summer storms make summer what it is, and summer in Florida wouldn’t be the same without them.

Way smaller surf today. There’s a light onshore breeze. Even the kids are having to ride the bigger boards to catch waves. The tide is on the low end of the low tides, and will start to come in around 3:30. If you’re just waking up like I should be right now if a big roar of a big truck down the street didn’t wake me up, I’d say wait for the evening if at all, maaybe even skip it until tomorrow.

A little squall just rolled in with hail-like rain pelting the windows on the car. It seems to be clearing at the moment. And in the process of typing this on the phone it just completely stopped. Surf is expected to continue through the evening, and through the weekend. A light rain may also linger for a while. Stepping outside now at 2:26pm the squall has cleared, and another may be following closely behind.  The surf is really fun! Probably still worth it!
