1992 - Hurricane Andrew made landfall in southern Florida at 4:30 AM on this day. The high winds caused catastrophic damage in Florida, with Miami-Dade County cities of Florida City, Homestead, and Cutler Ridge receiving the brunt of the storm. About 63,000 homes were destroyed, and over 101,000 others were damaged. This storm left roughly 175,000 people homeless. As many as 1.4 million people were left without electricity at the height of the storm. In the Everglades, 70,000 acres (280 km2) of trees were knocked down. Additionally, rainfall in Florida was substantial, peaking at 13.98 in (355 mm) in western Miami-Dade County. About $25 billion in damage and 44 fatalities were reported in Florida.

74 / 60 as humidity and dew pint creeps up.   Warmer today with mid - upper 80s and outside shot of 90 in the warmer spots.  Mon and Tue the same a touch more humid more upper 80s to some low 90s in the warm spots.  Wed hottest day of the week and maybe till next year mid 90s / upper 90s in the warm spot -pending on how clear / sunny it is.  Thu clouds and showers may spoil heatwave for the warmer spots.  Clouds linger into Friday before showers arrive for Labor day weekend Sat.  Euro much warmer than gfs for labor day weekend.  Other wise near normal then warmer beyond as the atlantic ridge builds back into the end of the first week of next momth.

We need rain 

I gave the vegetable garden some water yesterday for the first time since that rainy period that we had. The soil has dried out. We could use some rain this coming week, but obviously we don't want big amounts again after all that flooding that some areas got a week ago.
