Waiting for the start of Leg 3 from Jupiter to Cocoa Beach. Could be difficult for ground crews today because TV said that parts of I-95 and U.S. 1 are closed in the Palm Bay (Melbourne) area due to all the grass fires going on -- and with winds from the west-northwest, the smoke is all blowing toward those roads. Schools in Palm Bay have been closed today because of this problem with road closures.

Also, the firefighters think these fires are being started by arsonists because a new fire starts in a new place exactly every 45 minutes.


Wow! thanks for the update Mary! We would have plodded along unknowingly right into the snarl.
