This is a good site for seeing VHF propagation and might be useful for other bands as well.

VHF Real Time Propagation
An interactive map that shows real time, worldwide VHF activity highlighting enhaned propagation typical to tropospheric ducting.

I’ve been using that one for years. Most of Fl was orange no red. Last week was red nothing came in just normal stuff.This is a good site for seeing VHF propagation and might be useful for other bands as well.

I find that website, even on VHF ... to not be accurate. at all. perhaps it's a good indicator or something - but it's a "YMMV" for me (even on VHF)

Most of the APRS traffic dxview logs from our area mainly sources from stations transcieving on pretty decent towers, like NI4CE, WC4PEM and the like. Definitely YMMV for the average ground-based DX'er. 
I’m picking up sites 1 and 2 Kennedy space center in downtown bartow using a 18 foot tripod.
A hour ago I put up my antenna and getting mcdill AFB. Also getting space center s2 on/off.
I’m in St Augustine and picking 2 sites for fleet talk sites 27 and 30 with 3-5 bars using the 18 foot tripod antenna.
The past hour been picking up Brevard Space Force system 157 1.9 1.90 and 1.91 in Polk County. Also getting the 406 KSC system also.
The past few hours been picking up systems from Patrick AFB and a few FL Fleet Talk sites from vero bch
I’m in St. John’s county and picking this system up using a temp antenna about 20 feet up
I tried a few gmrs repeaters nothing. So I’m just scanning see what’s out there.
Here’s another freq I’m picking up
453.125 dmrt3 color 0 site 1 Sid 1 not sure where this one is at

not that florida man
Just did a walk around my house and landed on WWH25 out of Metter, GA. 300+ miles!
I’m even getting Camden cnty ga vhf analog. 155.115 I haven’t heard that in 15 years.
15 mints ago I put up the antenna and getting the same system as last night.
for those wondering - this is my go-to for band openings.... granted, this is only for VHF, but it's usually indicative of other bands being open:
