In Florida, it’s when the water makes the most sense, and it’s the perfect temperature. You lie on the beach until you can’t stand it anymore, and then the blue welcome of the Gulf. And no matter how nice it is all year around in this state, where we have sunshine in February, it’s still different to barbecue in the summer, or grill up some burgers by the pool or the water. Summer equals barbecue, no matter where you are. Click for more! ![]() It's HOT! By Wayne Gentry, Meteorologist Talk about beach weather! If I make a big deal out of how HOT it's going to be, I figure it's only fair to compare the temperature to what we think of as normal. As I look at our stations in the Southeast, we are seeing many record high temperatures to have occurred from the 1990's right up to the present. Scientists will continue to argue about how much influence man has on our changing climate, but it doesn't take a weatherman to know IT'S HOT! Click for more! Summer Season is Here....
