Yeah, KC9LRB from GW8 asked that out. Yeah, okay there Mike. I got your 84 degrees foxtrot and September is the best month over there where you are located in the US, in Indianapolis. So, yes, it's not bad here for the last couple of days. It's raining a bit overnight but it's much better than it was when Storm Amy passed us by on, what was it, Saturday and Sunday. Oh, it was torrential rain, there was lots of flooding around 50 miles west of us in the city called Swansea. There was a lot of cars flooded. The flood water was so deep, sorry, it actually just virtually covered, just near enough covered the roofs of vehicles in a few locations. And because we had a long dry spell, an extra long dry spell over the summer and of course all the road gullies etc. takes the surface water away, you know, get all dried up and blocked up and some of the local authorities didn't actually go and clean them out. Then we had all this torrential rain which we don't normally have. We normally get gradual, constant-ish type rain if you know what I mean. Not really heavy stuff and of course the water had nowhere to go. So, flooding was quite common around the South Wales area. We were lucky because we were a little bit elevated. So, most of the whales would have to get flooded before it would actually come up to us. But if we did have a blocked gully system, surface water gully system, it might be a little bit of a problem. But we were lucky and we didn't get affected. But there's quite a few businesses and homes and everything got flooded in Swansea there, there Mike. But unfortunately that's the way things are going. As I say, we don't know what the weather and the climate is going to do over the next few years. I'm closely watching our winter as well and our autumn weather. So, we can get an idea. If it's anything like last autumn, our nighttime and daytime differential temperatures were nowhere near what they usually would be previously. So, we'll see if they're more closer together this year than last year or what happens over the autumn. They might get out to the temperatures every day. So, it's all stored in the computer system. So, over to you there Mike. KC9MRB JW8SZL.
