    It's that time of year when thoughts turn to the weather, and what the season may bring. Today, for the first time this season, I noticed that the heavy weather, which had been streaming across the Atlantic well to the south, has now started to venture further north. Here's what they said,
    Still early in the season for us, but maybe we'll start getting some badly needed rain now.

    NOOOOOOOOOOO! I hate hurricane season because our dogs pee indoors when it rains. The next few months are going to be interesting at my house.

    Thanks for the heads up, V.

    How 'bout that rain, huh, folks? It was nice to see, after such a long dry spell. Not much in itself, perhaps we'll see more, soon!

    We watched from our balcony as the rain rolled in....

    We can again see Isla in the distance, so if appears it's over, for now.

    Stay tuned!

    The storm continues its slow meander in our direction, with what is now a 40% chance of tropical cyclone formation. It seems like an early start to the season, but with what's been happening in the U.S., it makes me wonder what this season will be like.
    When I look at the cloud patterns I don't see the 40% chance, because the clouds don't yet describe the arcs I expect in a system that can progress to a hurricane, but they're the experts.

    It's on the Pacific coast, not on the Caribbean, so poses no threat here but it does seem to be part of a larger weather cell that is affecting our weather: tropical storm Beatriz is expected to reach hurricane strength, later today.

    Gringation, it's still not to late to teach your dog to pee in the shower! Really.

    Gringation: You need some of her urine. Take a couple paper towels when you walk her and rub them over the stop she went. Then throw them in the shower. Repeat till you have 4 or so in there near the drain. Then when she asks or acts like she needs to go out, take her down there and say pee pee. I always say good pee pee when my dog does it outside, so this gave us a basis to communicate with. Now, when it's raining, she ask me to open the door to the bathroom and looks over her shoulder while she does it. I throw some chlorine on it and run the shower! Done. If a puddle sits without you seeing it, nutralize with white vinegar! Done.
