The temperature was 47 degrees around Noon Eastern Time here 1 1/2 hours northwest of Orlando. It is currently (1:18 AM ET, official time) 57 degrees.

The barometric pressure was 30.20 this morning, shortly before 10:00 AM ET, now it is down to 29.99 inches!

That's a pretty decent BP drop in 3 hrs, Coldfront!

This barometric pressure drop of 0.25" occurred in 14 hours, which is pretty steep fall, considering.

I have the alarm set on my digital barometer for 0.09" for quick falls of barometric pressure. It went off three times between early Sunday afternoon and just over 1/2 day ago.

Pressure here now stands at 29.93 inches/1013 milibars.

Sorry, Coldfront, I misread the time of your readings. I better get the ol' eyeballs checked!

Still a pretty neat drop by FL standards. 8) I'm really into BP changes, as you may guess from my user name.
