Nothing Happening Today... a Look Back at the Gator Flop ....& Drones to Fly in Canes?

Visible Water Vapor - GOES East 12 hr Loop

Every year this system sets up where the highs look like they are going at each other in some sort of battle. It's the time when winter and spring end and summer and fall begin. Temperatures start to hit 90... storms begin to form in the Atlantic... frontal boundaries loose their steam.

Officially.................there is nothing happening today in the tropics.

So what is there to talk about? A good discussion could be made regarding the drones being developed by the University of Florida team that might some day fly into hurricanes.  Those sneaky Gators... leave it to them to come up with this one.  Sorry, as a UM fan who will never forget the "Gator Flop" ... I have Gator issues it seems.

Read the story in the link... something to think on?

Can our wonderful recon crews be replaces by fake electronic bats? I think not..but can't they help.. maybe.
