Calm Before the Storm

The hot, humid weather broke last night with a heavy storm that was followed by cooling breezes overnight, a kind of cool that is uncharacteristic for this time of year.

This morning has been unusually calm, with tall trees standing motionless and the sky clouded over.

At the weather station in Lake Clarke Shores, the temperature reading shows it is only 80.4 degrees. In last August, in the subtropics.
