Brad Rosenheim<p>Last night, walking the dog just after 9 pm, I heard the first gentle rumbles of thunder and muted flashes lot lightning in a non-frontal convective storm this wet season. Of course, it is still dry season, and it is VERY dry, but that sound and visual if the Florida summer is wonderful. Non frontal storms pop up all around peninsular Florida from about May through mid October. These storms generally do not induce tovarich spinning or generate hail, but they produce a lot of lightning. And, importantly, rain. We need the rain. And even though Florida summers are hot and humid, I prefer this season because of our daily thunderstorms.</p><p><a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/thunder" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>thunder</span></a><br><a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/lightning" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>lightning</span></a><br><a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/FLwx" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>FLwx</span></a><br><a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/Florida" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Florida</span></a><br><a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/summer" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>summer</span></a></p>
