Happy Eastern Pacific Hurricane Season!!! Atlantic Hurricane Season just around the corner.

OK, yes, I admit it, it does appear that I seem to have associated with me a weather curse... The last two times that I left town are the only two times in the past month that it has rained in my area. Apparently, I need to leave more often. Not only that, but I seem to have brought the smoke home with me... the doggone stuff followed here, so now, it's smoky here. Just great! This "Dew Nothing" Syndrome is starting to give me a complex. It's just not right.

I am feeling a little left out with everyone posting lightning shots... sure, I haven't seen lightning in about 6 months, but I have shot lightning shots... they aren't the best, but they were shot by me...

We have another back door front approaching tomorrow, bringing with it another (slight)shot at rain (Kelly's keeping POPS low because of the disagreement between NAM and GFS... can't they all just get along?)... (Perhaps, I should leave and let things happen as they should? lol), and of course another blast of drier air will follow the front, making fire danger that much worse. There is actually some minimal talk of some sea breeze developing this afternoon and helping some with the Bugaboo Fire. I hope that sufficient convection comes with it to make a dent, help the fire crews out a little.

Today kicks off the Eastern Pacific Hurricane Season. Our season kicks off June 1st, but already we have had STS/STD Andrea to kick things off in a pre-season tease, and now there are rumblings of another extratropical system wanting to come out and play near the Bahamas... Jeff Masters has blogged about that. Something to keep an eye on. It's not looking like it will become Barry, but I suppose anything is possible this year. A nice TS would be a wonderful thing for Florida and South Georgia, perfect solution to the fires. Next week kicks off, National Hurricane Preparedness Week. The NWS has posted a site for that... which can help you learn everything you've ever wanted to know about hurricanes and were perhaps afraid to ask.

I'd better get going. I missed yesterday, and I need to get on it... You know?

Have a great day!!! A very weatherless,
