I walked down to the barge canal off the Withlacoochee river, and counted 4 dead tarpon on Tuesday, and 5 dead snook within 10 minutes. The snook were all under 3 lbs/18", but one of the tarpon was in the 100-150 lb range, close to 6' long. I took a photo with my cell phone, but it didn't come out. A boater picked him out of the water and said he was going to have him mounted.
We have had 12 straight days below freezing, and 13 of 14 days this year. We've had 5 days reaching below 20*, and two days reaching 12* or 13*. It snowed here on Saturday past, and stuck to the ground. We have not been above 50* at my house for 9 straight days, and only 1 day reached above 50* this year. Today, we are finally supposed to reach 54*-56*.
The Citrus County Chronicle (
aka the Citrus County Comical) published an editorial that blamed the cold weather on Global Warming...no kidding.
