H2O

I didn’t ANY storms from all this hype!! Severe sucks!!!

You know it’s humid out when all the windows are fogged up

is everyone poo poo'ing todays threat?

Happy bday to you! Just know that 50 is the start of the better half of things.

I hope that how you feel is the worst of it. Hopefully you can get something that helps the cough and anything else you are dealing with or might deal with. Im so sorry it prevented the kid from doing the show. You had hoped to be able to get thru today in the clear. I know you both are upset by this and the timing. What the dance people offered to do for her and you is so touching. That will help her and you heal. It tough to understand why stuff happens but all you can do is take this setback and find a path forward that will let her be the best she can be and show off what skills she has. Feel better!!

56 here. This is when the UHI flexes it’s muscle

at least winds were calm and it was a straight rain

Y’all cashed in. Only .33” here

The drought is real. Thoughts and prayers to them. I'm def not looking forward to our time trials in the rain buuuuuut I'll take that over 90+. Mainly the hassle will be having to put up a lot of tents to try and keep most of us from getting drenched. It won't matter to me. I'll get soaked just from having to run around with time cards and all that.

Was a very nice evening and another night where windows could be opened

Great. Corona, monkeypox, aliens and now rabid Wil E Coyote We live in a post apocalyptic hellscape that plays like an Xbox game. Just need zombies next. But we might already have them. Teens on Tik Tok are coming for our brains because theirs have rotted away. This PSA brought to you by a grumpy old man and your local prune growers

Loving how the front has dropped temps and humidity. Much nicer

.65” here. Woot woot

Soooooo, at our second to last B meet last year we were at another pool. And while working that meet as assist chief timer we were told that there was a "special" cooler for officials. That it was that pools last meet tradition to have fun and just let rip. it was a bit hit with our pool people that were working that meet. So after talking to one of our team reps I said I wanted to do the same thing. Our last B meet was mainly for the small kids that didn't get to swim much or do A meets. So it was a meet for them. A less "official" meet and since it was our last one it didn't matter cause all stars was next. Divisionals was done. I made up a giant cooler with margarita mix and rail tequila. And quietly let my timers know there was a "special adult" cooler. My way to reward the ones that sweated meet after meet both A and B and just enjoy things. Made sure to stress we were not to blame for anyone getting snockered. Personal responsibility and all that jazz. It was needed IMO. See, on this climb we've been on from the division where you are to where we are now, something has been lost. The joy of just having fun has been replaced with people only caring about times and points and status. We literally now get people who just use our pool as a "rental" in that we are high enough division wise that it is for bragging rights for their kids. Exposure, etc. They don't care about the pool itself. Its just a vessel for them. A stepping stone. If we fall they will bail. So what better way to foster community than to get people to have fun and loosen up. Booze helps that lol. We will see if we do it again. I hope so.

Oh and a flood warning

Ditto here. Only bonus was kids practiced canceled. Woooooo!!! Daddy can have a drinky now

First storm missing me to the north. Might be one of those days. Teased and just lots of dark clouds in the distance

mix of sun/clouds now that the CU has started to pop

I just need storms in the 4-5pm range. Make that happen please

I want 10% of record sales Plenty of sun and fuel here for storms later

Full sun here. LFG!!

Yeah! What he said!! *quietly nods that my .02 is worthless in this convo

Got up to 93. The worst was having to stand by the pool while kid did practice. Just awful. hydrating with booze now.
