Big Weather on its Way




Today's Griffin loop had that odd feel of Big Weather coming in...the winds pushing extra humid air ahead of a mass of energy that you know goes way beyond local scope...the skies filling with that fast mass of clouds beginning their swirl along the upper streams steering things forward, and apparently westward. Not good for the Gulf, for us, perhaps a first dry run of the hurricane season. We are hardened pros now, we know what needs doing...and as part of the Broward County team, I am 'officially' on call and at their disposal always...

Meanwhile we all attempt to cope with what comes our way. These Big Forces are pushing their way upon us and we need to have the muster to hold on to our ground, our faith and hard-working ethic to see us through. It feels like it will never quite be 'easy' again. Even the run, which gives up trance-like stretches of bliss every once in a while, exacts its price: there is always a deep effort to maintain faith that I complete today, and the next, and the next one to come.
