Welcome to Trees Are Good! We started this blog in 2014 to chronicle the temperature differences between our 2 pieces of property. It's a very interesting and ongoing log- haha get it? trees, log haha- OK enough of that... of temperatures from our pasture vs. our tree covered yard in Central Florida. We hope you enjoy Trees Are Good!
70 degrees in the Trees
75 degrees in the sunny pasture
They got 4 inches of snow that afternoon! This is Joe Boyd walking back to their boat after some evening fun on a "buddy boat". They said it was tough to find where the dock was... and wasn't.
The old Orange Grove next door is being cleared for pasture... it's the ebb and flow of the land.
However, our Tunnel of Trees remains and it's 44 degrees here at 9:20 am.
Our Pasture is growing its own wild flower garden complete with 25 - 30 new Turkey Oaks that the Squirrels planted for us. It's 42 degrees in the Pasture.
It's wild how the trees hold in some of the heat during the Winter months.
The Pasture is at about 80 degrees also but as the sun came over the trees on the east side of the property, the temp rose 3 degrees in about 1 minute. So at 9:31 am without the trees to protect and shade it, this thermometer increased to 83 degrees!
The Pasture today at 1:00 pm is 92 degrees. It is 4 degrees cooler in the trees than in the pasture!
Life is good! Trees are Good!
It's 9:00 am on Tuesday April 16, 2024. I headed out for a walk and this craziness is what I found.
It's a nice cool 68 degrees in the Tunnel of Trees.
The scary thing is that it's 88 degrees in the pasture.
The sun has only been baking on this pole since 6:53 this morning.
So in a little over 2 hours the temperature in the pasture is 20 degrees different from the
Tunnel of Trees.
