Wow, what an unexpected response... Crickets chirping.

Never, under any circumstances, ever become a refugee.
Die if you must, but die on your home turf with your face to the wind, not in some stinking hellhole 2,000 kilometers away, among people you neither know nor care about.

Al'right!
The ten day weather forecast looks to be great, except for Saturday the 5th, the Pier Picnic.
Partly Cloudy
High Temp 73
Humidity 74%
Wind ESE 9mph
Precipitation 40% chance
Edit: NOAA just updated to a 40% chance of rain.
Maybe half decent day for a picnic?Ragnar Benson:

There is always a prayer offered for Heavenly Father's blessings.
And the generosity of some has always fed many.Ragnar Benson:

The GFS model shows a cold front coming through that morning with up to 20 knot north winds (two flags) behind it. Ten days out is not reliable for the model to predict timing, but the front is probable. It mostly depends on the timing.
Here is the model start page (not sure how long link will work).
Model Guidance
And the base page for selecting models.
Model GuidancePeople are shocked to see sharks in the water around here.
If you see natural water taste it. If it's salty it has sharks in it. If it's fresh it has alligators in it. If it's brackish it has both.

Need somebody to go by J&M that morning from what John said around 10-11 to pick up the Bar-B-Q he is fixing for us. He said 4-5 Boston Butts will need a big cooler.

GFS model shows the front weakening and slowing down now. According to the model it will be on our north side and we will still have SE winds. Does not look powerful at all, but of course that is still six days out.
On another topic, do I need to bring more buns?People are shocked to see sharks in the water around here.

Well, after several hours making phone calls, I was able to track down a certain manufacturer’s service center in California. Thankfully, they agreed to send out my needed parts. These were left over...
You would think I would know this!
