As NWS meteorologists, we are supposed to be the almighty experts on weather radar interpretation. And lemme tell you, it never ceases to amaze me how COMPLICATED radar is. Try to explain to the public what elevated sidelobe contamination is. Whew. Radar requires constant upkeep with your skills.

So I saw went to a movie theatre for the first time in 11 years to see the Odyssey movie. It was very ok. I really don’t get the hype. I’ll try to make it 12 years this time.

My fatass just ran a sub-14 minute mile**, which is essentially winning the Boston Marathon by my standards. *With a dog in tow. Shave a minute or so off that if I didn’t have a dog. *At sea level. Hills be damned.

I really am the problem because I watched the entire second half of this thing and am absolutely bored out of my mind. It just ain’t happening man. I don’t get it. Gimme the pigskin.
