Billy Bowlegs Festival
In order to generate “local excitement” [sell stuff] the chamber of commerce is once again annoying people with the Billy Bowlegs Festival. This year the unavoidable part runs from Thursday, June 5th and finishes up on Saturday. The really obnoxious parade on Thursday screws up traffic and sends a lot of noisy people through my neighborhood.
Almost at bad as the parade traffic jam are the Friday fireworks. I know a lot of people enjoy fireworks, but they probably have not seen what loud noises and flashes of light can do to people and aircraft – I am definitely not a fan.
With luck it will rain the rest of the week… 😈

Invest 90
The first tropical disturbance of the Atlantic hurricane season, Invest 90, has formed in the southern end of the Bay of Campeche. All of the models currently say it will drift West into Mexico.
Mexico doesn’t need it because they are dealing with massive amounts of rain from Tropical Storm Boris, an eastern Pacific storm, that has come ashore due South of Invest 90. Flash flooding and mudslides will be major problems for southern Mexico and Honduras.
