Sometimes those Helicopters in Vietnam looked like flying water
sprinklers, wringing that moisture out of the air and blowing it
downward.The weather over there is always hot and very humid, all day
long and all night long.I was at Shannon Wright Compound
www.114thaviationcompany.com for about three months and then
I was transfered to Tan Son Nhut for the rest of my year over there in
1964. www.tsna.org

Every time I took a shower bath, as soon as I turned off the water I was
sweating again.I guess the weather further North of Saigon might be
cooler, up in the hills/mountains.

In the Summertime, the weather gets hot and humid here too, but not as
humid as in Vietnam.Sometimes, it gets over 100 degrees here.It gets to
be a real ''burner''. www.wxusa.com/wx1/Jackson-MS.htm

JT and Dave www.supertalkms.com used to argure back and forth with
each other on their radio talk show, just like two kindergarten kids.I
think Paul Gallo told them to cool it!

Mike,
I mounted my BC 245 in my pickup this afternoon. Been
wanting to do
that for a year so I got it done. While I was there I drained
and flushed the radiator and put "summer coolent" in, nice
green.

Always 'summer' in the Philippines, is it not, Cuz?



I asked for "Anti Freeze" and blew their minds (what they have)

It stays around 90-95 most of the days, nights are around 85.
Humidity says about 99. The fans in the house will ring the water
out of the air at times, that's funny. (blowing water)


Been there and done that, as you know, Cuz!

Kinda the opposite is Africa, in places, where humidity is a
premium.

Getting ready here to get the AC unit in the window as it may just
really get hot in the next week or so.

Lake levels are back up to their long term averages.


Oh yeah, forgot to add that it's only 66 degrees F, here at 10 AM ET
(1400 GMT) on the freakin 14th of June!


That's because we have been on a cooling trend for more than a decade.
It's colder here in the summer than when I first moved out here to the
west coast.

It's a good thing we have all that Al Gore hot air going around or the
coming ice age would already be here.

We may have hit the solar cycle bottom this summer. The next few months
will tell. The SW reception will improve and we will probably go back to
a small warming trend that will freak out all the clowns in the global
warming crowd. Even though it is the sun continuing to control the
earths climate the global warming clowns will insist it is man according
to their ego centric group think. Pass the KooL-Aid.

I've often said that summer does not come to Michigan until July 4 and lasts
until July 5, and this year I may be right.

But, the sun shines, and the grass is green!

And DX season will be back in 120 days or so.
