climate and lifestyle

like any sub-tropical paradise, the climate is the best and the worst all rolled into one. Today is Dec. 28th, 2007, the temperature is 82, the breeze is on, life is as good as it gets. It was just like it yesterday, the day before, last week and last month. It will be just like this for the next 5 months, but then it will begin to heat up and coming around July, the other end of the spectrum will provide for extreme humidity, thunderstorms daily, with the threat of a hurricane here and then. While the area has not been hit in God knows how many years, and never in a devestating fashion, the thought is possiblity is there and the media does not let us to forget that. Don't bother to watch the weather on TV and if you must, watch ABC or the weather channel, all the others are just hypping the situation to the max, and trying to cash in on every possible weather situation no matter how minute, as in like we don't know that since we live here.
The sand on the beach is incredibly beautiful and probably the very finest in the world. Siesta Key is still charming, shorts and flip flops kind of place, a little hide away only minutes from downtown Sarasota but the pressure of the allmighty green back will eventually turn it into a Ft. Lauderdale type neighborhood.
