Meteorologic "near miss"

Ever been on the outside looking in?

Yesterday Nicole dropped lots of rain on the east coast, but here in the middle of the peninsula at Big Cypress Nat'l Preserve it's been a mostly rainless day.


To the east (towards Miami), clouds were a thick gray stew.

To the west (towards Naples) skies were bright and blue.

Or in other words, a very near meteorologic miss.

Well, darn. You would think a hurricane would have the decency to send a few drops your way.

I like your panorama - it tells the story very neatly.

We got an inch out of it in the preserve, it rained more the two days prior from some tropical moisture streaming up along a frontal boundary.
