One mile down the road and today's ride is cancelled due to weather beyond my control. I must practice realigning the planets again so we have good weather.

We had a nice dose of thunder and lightning last night aeroxbud this happened to a friend's house across the river from us that got struck he sent me a pic. Had reports of other people locally of sockets exploding out. Sounded like the low rumble of a military aircraft C25? flying over low and slow which is quite common here then realised it wasn't and people reported that the lightening was a strange pattern never seen before. Daughter just said her phone socket blew out too.

We seem to be getting more and more freak weather. Global warming? 😲

I am afraid the wild weather will get much much worse. More energy in the atmosphere == wilder weather. Lightning does strange things to house wiring. The only safe place to be in a lightning storm is a modern steel frame building. The wiring and plumbing pipes in houses serve only as a lightning attractant offering zero protection to the occupants because the wiring and pipes are not heavy enough to carry the lightning current. I have had a lot of experience with lightning strikes. Most of my life has been a Chinese curse, "May you live in interesting times"...

Went to pick up the Melody wheel from tyre fitters today. Must be the first morning without rain in a month.

It is a Star Wars troop ground attack vehicle with twin 15W lasers.
Snowing, 5" on the ground + drifts, 12°F, wind gusts up to 40mph, wind chill way below 0°F, house creaking and groaning, I ain't going nowhere... There is occasional traffic outside from idiots, -no scoots. I am going to nuke some Chinese leftovers for lunch. I will be hungry again in an hour. Then maybe some chips and salsa. I am glad my power comes direct from a main line and my internet is buried fiber optic cable. I can sit and veg out streaming video. It is too cold to venture into the garage metal shop. I suppose I could clean the wood shop... -no not today.
