Moving

Today, I am loading up most of my stuff into storage. Tuesday I will vacate the apartment and crash by a few friends till Aug 15th. Then its off to Daytona. I hope the CB’s stay away from the truck today. This morning, I already saw two towering cumulus. aye.

Update: 1109a. TCU’s all quads. A SW-NE bounday has been sitting over me all morning. Just my luck, a CB is overhead. I am officially on a rain delay. The NWS issued a 20% chance of rain and as luck would have it, its over my moving truck.

Update: 1225p. TCU’s (Towering Cumulus) and CB’s (Cumulonimbus - look it up if you don’t know what it means) all Quadrants still. CB overhead again. Can’t these things move like 1 mile east? That’s all I ask. Here is a snapshot of a radar image. Red dot marks me.

Update: 1020p. Completed packing up the Truck around 350p. Drove to the storage, completed paperwork, and began unloading around 510p with completion around 745p. Dropped off the truck, showered, grabbed a sub, and went to work. I am exhausted and my lower body is say “why”.

Moving on up….back to Daytona

I was offered full time weather observing position at DAB.  I will begin August 1st. I’m really excited and relieved. At least I’ll have a full time job as I await the phone call and job offer from my future employer.

Update 

Since the shifts at PBI could not be covered from Aug 1-15th, I will begin at DAB on Aug 16th. I will be moving out of my apartment around July 21st and will be temporairly staying with some friends till Aug 15th.

….I wonder how long it will take for family members to find out that I’m moving. This is another test.

TS over PBI at 1145p

Captured this lightning picture looking North over the aiport. I used the chainlink fence holes as my steady tripod. I guess I need to carry my tripod with me all the time too.

….update. Well, I had 2 lightning pictures. One not so good and another that was pretty good. Well, I deleted the wrong picture. So, no pic for you!
