Good morning friends. Arrived safely.
No puppy pic this time, only a picture of the current proud mother when she was a puppy herself four years ago.
She says "Hi".

Only funnel clouds. It passed just north of town. A few spotty thunderstorms, some hail and wind up and down the valley. Nothing really in town.ORIGINAL: jeffk3510
Stay safe, and indoors!
Yup. I tried waiting for one of the normal July blizzards, but finally lost patience and went anyway.ORIGINAL: Chickenboy

Leaving now for a 600 miles long night drive up north in the country. Puppies, here I come! [:)]
See you tomorrow, THREAD brothers.
Aren't you supposed to only make that drive to your folks' place in some God-awful blizzard? [&:][;)]
Agreed. That's why I normally drive in the night. Have never seen a police car at night, and I know where the speed cameras are ... [;)][8D]ORIGINAL: Historiker

See you tomorrow, THREAD brothers.
Huge roads, mostly in perfect shape, mostly totally straight and almost no car on them - but you have to drive 120 or 130 km/h... I drove my parent's BMW a few years ago, when we went to my sister's wedding near Linköping. Hundreds of km on the road, feeling neutered...
That's like when I drove from Kentucky through WV to the coast. Emtpy roads, but ze German hat to stay at 75/70 mph. That's the only thing I hate about the US in general, I think...
It should be recognized as a human right to drive as fast as you want on an empty Autobahn! [:@]
I was in sweden at least 6 times, and I was propably on the roads a few thousand kms - but I've only seen police twice. Sometimes I believed you don't have any at all.ORIGINAL: Grollub

Yeah. One of these. Ditto.

Hmmm ... 54 seconds between your separate "Good morning posts".
Do you guys sync these things?

I'm surprised that you're not insinuating that we're getting up together at the same time, Per. [:D]

Hey Jeff:
USDA corn forecast (particularly for lower MW) is that 30-33% is "poor or very poor" crop this year. Tyson and Pilgrims' Pride have been getting pole-axed. [X(]
In Minnesota, 77% is rated as "good-excellent". Seems like we're it in terms of problem-free production this year. Sorry dude.
We got another series of thunderstorms developing last night. 1-1.5" from 3am-6am. Hope y'all to the south (read: everyone) get some badly needed rain too.
