Answer 4

We're definitely not in a drought situation.  I live between Ocala and Crystal River Beach. We've had storms and monsoon rains every day for the last three weeks.  This is normal for hurricane season here.  Thank God we haven't had a hurricane YET.

Everything is really green and the flowers are awesome.  The downside is that we have to cut the grass every week.

As of July 29th, most of Florida is officially out of drought, except for most of the panhandle, where abnomally dry conditions are still being depicted.  You can see the latest drought monitor here: http://www.drought.unl.edu/dm/monitor.ht...
