Why Hal Scott Preserve dries this way
Hal Scott Preserve (Orlando, FL) rides on sandy soil that drains fast over terrain that holds water and dries slowly. 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 85 ft, Hal Scott Preserve rides SW-facing ground that gets its strongest sun in the afternoon, so morning laps can stay tacky after overnight moisture; the nearly flat grade, around 0.2° on average, lets water sit, so the flat stretches are the last to firm up.
