Gezien het wat frisje is in Florida op dit moment,  ben ik eens gaan zoeken naar de gemiddelde temperatuur in Florida voor de maand Januari.

Vraag me niet naar hoe je de kolom  max, avg en  min moet interpeteren, want dat kan wat verwarrend zijn …. Ik heb er wel een theorie over, maar toch. Laten we het maar houden op American Engineering ……

Since Monday evening, residents from nearly all areas of Citrus County have felt tremors (lichte aardbeving) that shook homes and caused concern.

The cause of the tremors remains a mystery, said Citrus County Emergency Management Director Joe Eckstein.

Temors were still being felt in Homosassa and Floral City late Wednesday afternoon.

“One lady (early this week) said the dishes in her house were shaking on her shelf … The chandelier was shaking. It didn’t last long.”

The sheriff’s office received about 20 initial reports of similar incidents from around Citrus County that happened between 5 p.m. and 8 p.m. Monday. The only area where residents had not reported tremors before Wednesday is Homosassa.

“It’s been all over the county,” he said. “There were also reports from Marion County residents from Monday evening.”

When Eckstein sent out e-mails to agency employees and other contacts in Citrus County earlier this week, he received about another 10 or 15 responses from people saying they felt the tremors too.

Most of those who contacted the sheriff’s office up until late Wednesday afternoon reported tremors that happened Monday but a few said they felt them Tuesday and Wednesday, he said.

No earthquakes have been recorded and Eckstein said they’ve looked into whether the tremors could be related to mining activites or a military bombing exercise but have no indication if those are possible causes.

“Everything’s come back negative. It’s just weird,” he said. “Everybody’s kind of clueless.”

No damage has been reported. The Florida Department of Environmental Protection’s geological department is investigating the matter and is interviewing people from Citrus County who experienced the tremors, Eckstein said.

UPDATE, March 12

All the rumbling, rattling and sonic boom sounds Citrus County residents and others experienced this week are being blamed on military aircraft flying over the Gulf of Mexico.

“We can confirm it is the military running missions out there,” Citrus County Emergency Management Director Capt. Joe Eckstein said Thursday.

Earlier in the week, Eckstein said military activity was ruled out as the reason for the commotion, but he said Thursday that it was a mistake caused by a miscommunication with officials in Tallahassee.

Although these kinds of military exercises have been going on for years, Eckstein said he is being told that because of El Niño, the sonic boom of F-22 aircraft is being pushed in this direction by strong winds.

CRYSTAL RIVER, FL — Manatee migrate to the springs near Crystal River to seek refuge from the cold water. The Citrus County Chamber of Commerce wants people to migrate to downtown Crystal River this weekend despite the cold and enjoy a festival of art, food, fun, music and of course the manatee.

Visitors can expect to see fine art on display as well as several displays of creative crafts.

The chamber also uses the time to educate the public on manatee survival especially this time of year when the cold can be dangerous to manatee health.

Tours are available on a first come first served basis until the allotment of tickets is sold. Manatee including moms and infants are spotted throughout the King’s Bay area but they tend to congregate at Three Sister’s Springs.

The festival that bears the Manatee name offers more than sightseeing. This year’s event will feature the Paul Bunyan Lumberjack Show with axe throwing, log rolling and log cutting. Ticket information is available at the Heritage Village Office at 352-564-1400.

Other family activities include games, rock climbing wall, pony rides, a bounce house and face painting.

The location is downtown Crystal River off US Highway 19. Admission is $2 for adults. There is a shuttle service at the Crystal River Mall just north of downtown off US 19 with round trips for a buck.
