Jimmy Buffett gets "half-staff" until 5 o'clock respect in the State of Florida.
What is the difference between half mast and half-staff? A flag flown halfway up its flagpole as a symbol of mourning is at half-staff, and a flag flown halfway up a ship's mast to signal mourning or distress is at half-mast. The distinction does not run deep, though, as the terms are often mixed up, especially in unofficial contexts. This flexibility was implemented to keep the traditional half mast policy in place to respect the United States government and military. Half-staff was a "win-win" to show respect for icons like Jimmy Buffett.
It is 5 o'clock somewhere.
