This popped up on my Beryl feed. Love this segment; the production, info, graphics, and how you both work seamlessly as a team and both of your voices. Top notch. Kudos to everyone inc the crew.

My wife booked a cruise heading down there on September 11th. Primo hurricane season. Good thing I got the drink package.

I moved to Florida in 1988 and the winter months a couple years ago was pretty cold but last winter was the coldest winter overall I have ever gone threw here. So cold that it was killing off the pythons in the everglades which was a good thing.

If you follow the blob anomaly, I’m sure you might have suspicions as to why that area of the water is so hot at this time.
