Some crazy storms here in NE FL Sun-Mon.... lighting that looked like roman candle flames, with side sparks and everything. Some of the craziest lightning I've seen in over 35 years in FL..

I was outside hustling parking for an amphitheater event.... almost filled our lot when sparks started flying, then said f-this and ran inside as it was raining sideways..... then they canceled the "rain or shine" show as I was driving home. lol

This morning it's back down to 40 degrees and windows of the house are covered in condensation. March is always crazy

I'm sure this ends fabulously and done for the purest of scientific reasons and best interests of the general public:

The Trump administration is reviewing proposals to break up one of the world’s leading climate and weather laboratories, transfer its work to universities and private companies, take away its aircraft, and sell its property in Boulder, Colo.

The laboratory, the National Center for Atmospheric Research, has been targeted for months by the Trump administration. In a social media post in December, Russell Vought, the White House budget director, called the Colorado center “one of the largest sources of climate alarmism in the country.”

The center, founded in 1960, is responsible for many of the biggest scientific advances in understanding of weather and climate. Its research aircraft and sophisticated computer models of the Earth’s atmosphere and oceans are widely used in forecasting weather events and disasters.

Scientists say the move to dismantle the center would weaken research that is crucial to understanding the atmosphere, space and oceans, air pollution and climate change. It would leave emergency officials and planners less prepared for extreme weather events, critics said.

The center’s staff includes about 830 employees working under the University Corporation for Atmospheric Research, a nonprofit consortium of colleges and universities that oversees the center for the federal government.

The center also operates a massive supercomputer, known as Derecho, in Cheyenne, Wyo., that scientists use to predict the behavior of wildfires, space weather, hurricanes and other complex weather patterns.

When you're doing things that alarm scientists, own the science through private firms..
