Builders meet 2022

Post by Fuzz »

I have not seen any talk about having a meet so I got to wondering if there was going to be one this year? If not I sure hope we can go back to having them next year. I really enjoyed the two I made it to. Made some dang good friends there too :wink: :D

With enough notice, I might be tempted in 2023! 8O

Thanks Jeff I figured that would be the case but I wanted to ask.
BarraMan I dont think the guys would have liked Alaska this year. It has rained every day here for the past 2 months. :help: :( :cry:
60 years living here and I have never seen anything even close to this crap.

Serious as a heart attack. There might have been 2-3 days since mid July with no rain but not more than that. Rained off and on today like most days. Forecast is saying we will get two days in the next ten with no rain but I will have to see it to believe it. I have seen wet summers before but nothing like this one in 60 years of living here.

Weather patterns have changed all over this year and any government paid scientist, or politician can explain why. But the meteorologists in our area seem to suck at guessing.

Jeff, seems you guys have a something that may be aiming your way. My radar shows the storm is a day behind of where the forecast model shows it's at.

Models have Fiona going north and back out to sea. I’ve seen few tracks that bring her to US shores. Now that I’ve said it…
