Bermuda

Snow in Bermuda is extremely rare due to its subtropical climate. The most notable occurrence was on January 8, 1976, when a light dusting of snow fell, surprising residents. This event remains a memorable anomaly, as the island typically experiences mild temperatures and does not receive significant snowfall.

A Bermuda Tribe Road refers to a specific type of roadway or pathway that is often associated with the Bermuda Islands. These roads may be characterized by their scenic views and historical significance, reflecting the unique culture and geography of Bermuda. The term can also relate to the traditional routes used by the indigenous people of the area, although it's less commonly recognized in contemporary discussions. Overall, Bermuda Tribe Roads represent a blend of natural beauty and cultural heritage.

The distance by boat from Jupiter, Florida, to Bermuda is approximately 1,000 nautical miles, depending on the specific route taken. The journey typically involves navigating through the Atlantic Ocean and may take several days, depending on the speed of the boat and weather conditions. It's important to plan for potential stops and refueling along the way.

Cruise ships typically travel at speeds ranging from 20 to 25 knots, which is about 23 to 29 miles per hour. The exact travel time to Bermuda depends on the departure location, but for instance, a cruise from New York City to Bermuda usually takes around 2 to 3 days. Weather conditions and specific cruise itineraries can also affect travel speed and time.

For Bermuda grass, a coarse, well-draining fill sand is ideal, typically with a particle size of 0.5 mm to 2 mm. It's important to choose sand that is free of contaminants and organic matter to promote healthy growth. Blending the sand with topsoil can improve nutrient retention and moisture management. Ensure that the fill sand is suitable for the specific conditions of your lawn, such as drainage and sunlight exposure.

The 1966 Bermuda 50 cent coin contains 50% silver and 50% copper. It has a total weight of 11.3 grams, which means there is approximately 5.65 grams of silver in each coin. This composition was part of a series of coins produced during that time period before the switch to non-silver alloys.

As of my last update, the cost of an acre of land in Bermuda can vary significantly based on location and zoning. Generally, prices can range from several hundred thousand to over a million dollars per acre, particularly in desirable areas. Due to its limited land availability and high demand, Bermuda's real estate market tends to be quite expensive. For the most current prices, it's advisable to consult local real estate listings or agents.

Yes, dry ice is available for purchase in Bermuda, typically through specialized stores or suppliers that cater to shipping needs, food services, and event planning. It's advisable to check with local retailers or suppliers for availability, as stock may vary. Additionally, some grocery stores may carry it, especially during peak seasons for events.

Generally the coldest time to visit. Temperature will probably average around 60° F, but lowest temperature can drop to the mid-'Fifties. Wind chill (it's almost always windy in Bermuda, and stormy conditions are common in the winter) has been known to put the felt temperature below freezing. If you get a clear, sunny day (likely to be the coldest, as they result from cold fronts sweeping down and across from the Arctic air mass over central Canada, which they do at least once a week, usually, at that time of year) it may be nice enough out, so long as you wear a jacket, and a jumper, but if it's raining, and you wish to avoid pneumonia, you'll probably not venture outdoors much. Global warming has definitely had an effect in Bermuda, though, so the winter months are not as wintry as they used to be.

Bermuda is a basically a volcanic sea mountain that formed from the mid-Atlantic ridge about 100 million years ago. Its volcano is extinct and most Bermudians don't seem to be worried about the possibility of the volcano erupting in their lifetime.

Bermuda has a total land area of about 20.6 square miles, including all islands and islets.

The distance from North Carolina to Bermuda by boat is approximately 700-800 miles depending on the specific locations being considered. The journey typically takes about 2-3 days to complete, weather permitting. Be sure to check current maritime conditions before embarking on this trip.

Bermuda was settled by the Kingdom of England (which, it should be noted, included Wales as a principality) in 1609 (officially in 1612). When that merged with the Kingdom of Scotland in 1707 to create the Kingdom of Great Britain, Bermuda became British. When Ireland was officially incorporated within the union in 1800, creating the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland, it remained British. In 1927, following most of Ireland becoming the Irish Free State, and before its becoming completely independent in 1937, The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland became the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland. Bermuda remained British.

Today Bermuda remains an overseas territory (ie. colony) of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland. It should be noted that its law is based on English law, and its real attachment is with England. If the SNP follow through successfully with its promise to take Scotland into independence, Scotland will not take a share of Bermuda, which would revert, presumably, to being an English colony...even if the rump state is referred to as the United Kingdom of England and Northern Ireland.

The Bahamas were formed from volcanos originally but, when the Bahamian Hotspot went away coral reef grew and then eroded away making many, many, many small islands which people eventually inhabited.

Another theory is that some land came off of Africa back in Pangea Times and when North America split away The Bahamas came as well because they are on the same continental plate as North America.

The population of Bermuda in 2007 was approximately 65,000 people.

The Bermuda Petrel is the national bird of Bermuda.

There's a Kentucky Fried Chicken (KFC) in the main city of Hamilton. There used to be a McDonald's at a U.S. airbase, but when the base closed in 1995 so too did the restaurant; there have been attempts to open new McDonald's, but these resulted in fast food franchises (other than that one KFC) being outlawed in 1997.
