Lucky that all basketball has to worry about is indoor rain.<br /><br />http://www.historylink.org/File/7860<br />DEORTMANhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16963990437813769540noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7478606652950905956.post-10979065996426680292017-05-08T15:37:02.980-07:002017-05-08T15:37:02.980-07:00The Skunk Bay time-lapse is amazing.

I spend a lot of time watching clouds from my hilltop deck, but it's rare to get a true sense of the extreme variability in cloud movements and layers by watching real time. <br /><br />I remain completely in awe that computer models can predict many of these movements and the associated weather. The atmosphere is so complex and chaotic and continually changing. Atmospheric science is totally awesome.
