Well Lou G all we can do is wait for the next launch and see what happens. The answer is yes to the time zones. I will try to get in touch with a couple friends in California and see what their weather is doing. Maybe we should get with Inquirer publications. HUTCH

Alright what's with this SWAMP RAT STUFF? You need to pick a moniker and stick with it. Sometimes I don't know who I'm conversing with. Anyway forget the cotton crap and go pick up a case of cold long necks. HUTCH

Call it coincidence but it happened more than not. Please jump in on this as my study continues and I need facts. Just the facts and nothing but the facts. HUTCH
There is no change in weather immediately after a launch, nor does a launch influence a change. NASA weather defaults to one of the largest window-of-launch opportunites ever known to man to ensure the weather has no bearing on a launch...here, or anywhere, at the half dozens launch/recovery sites around the world...and also includes the same safety parameters for weather when it comes to landing.

You sure know how to stifle a good time. Just started having a little fun and it rains on our parade. Talking about rain when is the next launch? HUTCH

By any chance, do you belong to the Cape Kennedy Corvette Club?
There are a few NASA people there.
