it rained... i walked in the rain
Mon May 31 2004 07:49 PM

Went out for a walk with my best friend earlier... smiling off at a cloud in the distance...raindrops began to try and fall, it was like those florida snowflakes that disapeer before they hit the ground... and suddenly... half way to the store it started to pour. Kids came out and looked, we stood under a big ficus tree and moved to a sea grape which was bushier and provided more cover. We got soaked in the process but was somehow just perfect... one day before the start of the season..

Not sure if it was measureable or if it rained at official locations like the airport... suppose will hear later on local weather.

Rain smelled great, felt great, my hair feels so soft (grandma always said southern girls should wash their hair in rainwater) and...... makes you think more seriously on the Season... feelsl like its almost here

So.. the system down by Central America moved nicely enough off of land and is not sitting neatly in water, has color in the middle and still has that banding feature that begs attention. Believe it came off further to the north than most people thought it would... off land faster, worth running a few loops.

As for the Atlantic wave.. its still there and on some sats has the some the shape of something more than rain. Too low, too early and if it did get much more organized would be blown apart by shear but... for it to get that far across the ocean in late May compells you to think what it would do in late June.

Bobbi... very happy it rained. Not sure if it messed up the records or not but either way... raining at 12:30pm on May 31st is a mute point.. might mess up the record but not the pattern itself, which is in effect and holding on.

So... maybe we'll only get creamed by a Cat 4 and not one of those previously mentioned Cat 5s..
