Kicking back having a coffee.

 

I'm trying to get motivated today

 

I've had days like that. LOL.

 

From AlabamaWX

QUIET PATTERN: We will maintain the chance of a few showers over far South Alabama today and tomorrow, most of Alabama will be dry through the rest of the week with highs in the 80s and lows in the 60s. And, the dry weather continues over the weekend with sunny days and fair nights. Heat levels creep up, and some spots could see 90 degree warmth by Friday and Saturday.

And, things just won’t change much though most of next week as the dry pattern persists. Highs next week will be in the 80s, lows in the 60s. See the video briefing for maps, graphics, and more details.



TROPICS: Tropical Depression Gordon, in the middle of the Atlantic, is still hanging on this morning with winds of 35 mph. It will move northward over the open Atlantic over the next five days and is no threat to land. The rest of the Atlantic basin is calm, and additional tropical storm formation is not expected at least for the next seven days.



PARTIAL ECLIPSE TONIGHT: The Moon will graze the Earth’s shadow this evening creating a partial lunar eclipse. Only a small fraction of the moon will be blocked; the peak comes at 9:44p CT. At maximum eclipse umbral penetration will be equal to only 8.7%, meaning that only the moon’s uppermost limb will be submerged in the Earth’s dark umbral shadow.

As the full Moon closest to the autumnal equinox, this is the Harvest Moon. And, this will be a supermoon. The term “supermoon” was coined by astrologer Richard Nolle in 1979 as either a new or full Moon that occurs when the Moon is within 90% of its closest to Earth. Since we can’t see new Moons, what has the public’s attention are full supermoons, the biggest and brightest Moons of the year. Although different publications use different thresholds for deciding which full Moons qualify, most agree this will be the second of four consecutive supermoons (effectively tied with the full Moon in October for the closest of the year).

ON THIS DATE IN 1989: Hurricane Hugo hit the Virgin Islands, producing wind gusts to 97 mph at Saint Croix. Hurricane Hugo passed directly over the island of Saint Croix causing complete devastation and essentially cutting off the island from communications. A storm surge of five to seven feet occurred at Saint Croix. The only rain gauge left operating, at Caneel Bay, indicated 9.40 inches in 24 hours. Hurricane Hugo claimed the lives of three persons at Saint Croix and caused more than 500 million dollars damage.

Morning peeps,

 

Sup Stevie

 

Called and got me an appointment tomorrow to get my windows tinted .

how are you doing Phillip? Hmmmmm

 

Just watching YT vids

 

Let me guess, it’s on building a slide out camper

 

*Slide-in
Nah, I already know exactly how I want to do that. Just no monies

Actually watching YT vids on small toy haulers

 

I dig this little one too, but damn it's 13K

 

Get either 1 and you can camp out just about anywhere as small as they are. Then you can be offffff the grid

 

Shit, I can't afford the slide-in I want to build. No way I can afford a camper
If I were to buy one, I'd lean more towards the Wolf Pup. 6K more and you get more storage, shower/bath, and a bigger bed....with only 6ish more feet. Cool deals to look at, but I don't think I would really use one enough even if I could afford it
