Why Grassy Waters Preserve dries this way
Grassy Waters Preserve (West Palm Beach, FL) rides on sandy soil that drains fast over terrain that holds water and dries slowly. Heavy tree cover holds the damp in, so it stays wet longer than the sky overhead would suggest. Loam reads that exact ground against live weather, rather than leaning on a regional forecast that can’t tell you what the dirt is doing. At 23 ft, Grassy Waters Preserve rides SE-facing ground that soaks up sun through the middle of the day, which speeds drying and opens the season earlier; the nearly flat grade, around 0.2° on average, lets water sit, so the flat stretches are the last to firm up.
