Delmer Wells' Day Off
If you read today's earlier entry you'll see that I've got a weather permitting in there.
Current weather conditions are:
As thunderstorms go this is a pretty pleasant one. The wind isn't blowing so hard that rain came in my bedroom windows and the temp is pretty pleasant. We have the Baby Bear version of thunder and lightening out there: it's just right. We periodically get electrical storms here that can be described as nothing short of impressive.
On the map below you'll see Columbus in the center. To the south you'll see some yellow that denotes heavier storms. Hilliard is just a bit to the north and west of Columbus and you can see that the storms have sort of passed through. Using a much-less scientific method -- looking out the window -- I can verify that the storm has settled down to a light rain.
If I wanted to piddle with this some more I'd eventually get up some better radar photos that show that the current heavy storm has just moved away from us but that a new heavy storm may appear later.
But ... but ... but.
I really need to get to Mel's for breakfast. A parade may or may not start in about 30 minutes and I'd really like to get across the street before they close it off.
Ferris Bueller may have little trouble crossing parade routes -- the rest of us, I'm not so sure.
