As I reported recently, Florida is experiencing a severe drought,
marking its most significant water shortage since 2012. Driven by
massive rainfall deficits and collapsed groundwater levels, regional
authorities have enacted strict water restrictions. We're now in the rainy season and are getting showers more often. This has helped but has not solved the problem. We need frequent short showers to build up groundwater levels. A heavy rain doesn't really help as the sandy soil cannot retain the moisture.

Today I'm sharing summer skies here at the condo with increased darker clouds. Many afternoons moisture builds up over the Gulf and moves across Florida with showers. Sometimes there is thunder and lightening. I sit and listen as it moves in and out. I don't really go outside to capture storms.
I hope you're enjoying summer wherever you are!
