    Whelp, I can't argue with that. I drove down to Sarasota from Gainesville a couple of months back and was amazed at how much worse the traffic was. Besides that, people do drive like freaking idiots! One thing people do in Florida, it's against the law out here, is they tailgate you like you're towing them and if that doesn't work they flash their lights. I guess 20 MPH over the speed limit is, well...slow!

    I wonder if the 10 is as bad? The drive to Destin and Pensacola used to be pretty wide open-bet that's changed.

    And, yes, during the summer Florida is uninhabitable. I'm still not sure how football players handle the heat on the field.

    Hopefully the monsoon passes - Gators should be fine in the Swamp Diamond!:p

    Go Gators.:)

    Still a light rain here at Condron. Been about 20 minutes since the last big lightning/thunder that seemed to be from pretty far away. No official announcement that I’ve seen, refreshing the Gator Baseball twitter account often.

    Bronx to be exact. Those same people have taken over our lakes in central FL with their jet skis which they operate in the same aggressive manner.

    This thread alone is worth the price of admission. Thanks for all the laughs!

    Obviously my first prediction was way off. Forecast now has rain thru 10:00 pm. Now we’re all worried they’ll call it off for tonight and we’ll have been here since 3:30.

    Oh well, will let you guys know as soon as I do.

    Mine the same but from where you are you might not see the skies to the NW are starting to glow a little orange. Getting larger by the minute. Makes me wonder if these radar estimates will be changing if the rain is losing its grip over NCFL. Holding out hope.

    Rain is a non-factor, lightning long gone. Just NCAA confusion to battle now.

    Go GATORS!
