It looks like we will have good weather for the Thursday Tour Day in the South Florida Area.  It will be hot and steamy, but it doesn’t look like we will be getting a lot of rain. For those of you touring farms and ranches further inland, you will feel hotter – Heat index 103°.  The Atlantic Ocean keeps temperatures slightly more moderate than further inland.   Stay hydrated through the day.  Most of your time will be on air-conditioned buses.  Some might find the buses a little cool, so bring layers for the bus, and cool and comfortable clothing for the heat when you get off.
