This.  And govt. money (i.e., taxes) is currently flowing 10 times faster to petroleum than it does to renewables. 

 

It’s also why Musky got angry and broke up with his authoritarian boyfriend.

Looks like zero rain today and only .05 last night.  The Steining will continue.

Oh, it’s pretty clear that history will in time reveal the whole tariff thing, regardless of whatever it is/was espoused as being, was actually just a grift - a grand bilking scheme.

Me yesterday. 

[DavisStraight]

Tstorms to my west, I can hear them but they'll probably dissipate.

[tamarack]

So far August has produced . . . dust. 
GYX has us with 60% PoP Sunday.  2 days ago that same 60% was forecast for today.  Reminds me of an old comment about wx signs - in a drought, all signs fail.

Steined here so far today.  Maybe something pops but it doesn’t look good. 

[Bryan63]

Wouldn't be surprised if we see something pop up around the Carver area, watching the clouds from my office window and it just grew massively in the last half hour or so.

Congrats Hampton again

The whole area along RT 2 from you to N Adams is super dry. 

[rimetree]

Surprised at this little storm but we take. Before this we were at 2.02" since 7/1.

I did ok in July (3.0” month total), but a lot of that was early in the month.  0.3” MTD in August, all on 8/1
