Radar looks like we're going to get rain all day long today. Guess I need to go put the battery tender on the C5Z.
We are past our normal rainfall for the month of July so far in my area. I'm going offshore around 50 miles Sunday and hope to have some rain out there as that makes the grouper bite better.

Sheesh..... STILL raining here. And the mosquitoes are definitely taking advantage of it. So even if the rain stops, I'm sure we aren't going to be able to do much outside for a while.

Watch out for the newest mosquito threat. Asian Tiger Mosquitos. More aggressive and carry up to 30 diseases....kind of like a regular mosquito with stripes on meth.

Arghh.. There was this big bright shining light in the sky this morning that I didn't know what it was. I thought it was a UFO, so to try to stop the impending invasion, I shot at it.

Too late I realized it was the sun. I had forgotten what it looked like.

And now it is raining again.

Guess I shouldn't had aughta shot the sun.

Well it's no wonder the weather people can't get forecasts accurate. The data they are working with isn't accurate.

For instance I just got back from taking the blue Z out to do some more tuning data logging and I headed up north to take 267 out to the west. I ran the rpms up in 3rd gear to get some data in that range and the roads are pretty wide open in that area so I could stretch it's legs a bit. Anyway, on the way back, it was raining pretty good at the intersection of 319 and my road. So I had to wipe down the car before water spots could set in. Now I checked the weather radar before leaving and there was NOTHING showing. And to make matters worse, according to that same radar map, the rain I just went through never happened.

Well, like everyone else, I guess they'll blame it all on global warming, saying they need more money to buy "climate change" resistant instrumentation.
