Just talked with our center weather meteorologist. Its not looking pretty boys and girls. Depending on where the jet stream stalls its going to be a sunny 95-100 every day or hot and muggy with storms every day. Payback for the last two years of good weather.
May have to watch the fuel load too, I was planning on filling up the extra load with cases of Phillips 66 oil. That is as long as the price is $55 or less per case.

We trust our center weather people more than any other weather provider. It isn't a lock yet but he said every day the probability is going up. Right at 70% today. The big question will be where the jet stream stalls.
That's why my chair has an umbrella built onto it. Makes me look a little like John Goodman about to get bombed, as in "Always". But it sure makes watching landings more comfortable!

Right now AccuWeather is showing 89 on Thursday & Friday (7/21-7/22), 88 Saturday, 86 Sunday, 82 Monday, 90 Tuesday, 87 Wednesday and 82 Thursday. Only Sunday does it say mostly cloudy. Not showing any chance for precipitation above 18% on any day. Now, that all being said, it is two weeks away yet. But fingers crossed.
Now that's funny , I don't care who you are.....

Well, a week away and the second half of that forcast is looking more probable.
Will there still be airplanes? It'll be ok then.
