[yapc] South Florida Weather

Hey folks,

Surely many people are checking the weather for here for next week. And
you probably see "Thunderstorms" listed. For example, weather.com has
them listed for the next 10 days. Don't worry, it shouldn't be a
constant thunderstorm. In the summer, since this is the sub-tropics, we
get an afternoon thunderstorm *almost* every day.. usually around 3 or
4pm. So, to be safe, the weather report for the entire summer is always
"Sunny with a chance of an afternoon thunderstorm." The weather
forecasters here have an easy job ;-)

We may or may not have one, but it is safe to pick up a poncho if you
don't like getting wet, just in case, especially if you are staying in
the dorms and walking to the UC. 

Other than that, it will be what you would expect for Florida.. sunny,
bright and hot. Pack plenty of shorts! And, as Hiam mentioned a while
ago, a sweater or hoody can also come in handy since some indoor places
turn the A/C way down. 

The entrances to the Live Oak rooms are outside, and covered. So, you
*will* be outside at times between lectures. 

Keep these things in mind while packing, and pack accordingly to your
tastes for hot and cold and rain! I'd expect it will be sunny for the
majority of the time, but do expect a thunderstorm.

Cheers,
Kevin
