That big yellow thing in the sky hasn't been out in almost a month-seems like forever since I've taken the car out.

I was flying into LGA on Thursday. Crap weather with 3000 feet forward visibility. Nothing like breaking out at minimums with a tailwind on a wet runway that's short at 142knots and 130,000 pounds (max landing weight). It has been pretty crappy in the New York area. Hopefully the sun will shine soon for you guys....

LaGuardia is my least favorite airport-my travel person knows better than to fly me in/out of there.

Sorry to hear! I just got back from a great topless drive up to Camprodon and back in the Pyrenean foothills and am sporting a cab tan to show for it.

The storm passed about thirty miles north of me, we didn't get a single pellet. They looked nice and small, hopefully cars weren't too dinged up. My guy the Dent Wizard will likely be busy for a bit.
