Ta Rich!.... ;) ....!

Its a funny old do, but after 67+ years of Motorcycling, and 18+ years of pretending to fly aeroplanes, I have got to really appreciate weather conditions, and their dangers, in my travels and explorations!

"Weather" is a fascinating subject, and well worth studying!

I can spend hours in England, looking at the rain falling in my back garden....

...and wondering if it will ever stop!

The BBC Weather Forecast is my first hit, every morning!

In Arizona/Nevada, I suspect they just wonder if its going to be hotter, or cooler, than it was yesterday?.... :roll: ...!

Paul.... :lol: ... :lol: ...!

To make sure that my Sim Flights with my Cessna 150 are safe to fly in the land of Sun, Sea, Sand, and Beech Babes; (Southern California), I fire up...>>> http://kron4.com/category/weather/

..before I wheel her out of my Hangar!

If the weather looks; "nasty", I stay in the FBO Café and drink Tea/Coffee, until its passed over... :) ...!

"Nasty weather" can be very unpleasant!... :o ....!

Paul...Whether, or not, to go flying!.... :D ...!

Whoa, wouldja look at that!! Now, THAT is really far out! Might come in handy next hurricane season (Well, I would hope not).

Always good to know which way the wind blows, whether it be weather, politics, economics, flying, or just good ol' fashioned sailing.

Thanks for that, Foz.
