Today, June 1st, marks the beginning of the dreaded hurricance season - well, at least for us folks on a coast. There's even storms named Dean and Wendy this year. Wend is the wife's name.

This was not easy, especially coming up with names for Q and Y. If anyone has complaints, keep 'em to yourselves.

FWIW, a warning about the site Deano mentioned, IME. I downloaded this lil guy, (www.weatherbug.com) only to find out the place where they were measuring the temp for "my area" is about 150 miles away, where the weather conditions are drastically different.

Didn't realize that AB. I guess I got lucky as the weather conditions for my neck of the woods are coming out of the Mayport Navy Base, only about 5 miles north of me. However, on a typical summer day down here you can pass thru about 9 different weather conditions in those 5 miles!
