Looks like its getting worse on the radar too with more t-storms developing. Still no word on when I am leaving but I may be able to thread the needle if i am lucky with getting to brooklyn. There are some clear areas. Righ tnow my ride down to the bridges is nasty but once over them into brooklyn and queens it looks ok for now.

Either way I will prolly wait it out since I can prety much stay here till 8 and make my shift at 9.

I tend to just say screw it if its gg to rain. Of coarse over the past 2 weeks, I don't take my bike to work cause it may rain and I don't want to be wet. But by the time I get home its either raining or going to rain... so I haven't rode my bike in over 2 weeks. Stupid ass weather!

I have been ridiculously lucky the last few weeks. been rolling the dice with the weather. the bike has been rained on numerous times but fortunatley not while I was riding it :)

i am so due to get caught in a monsoon though.
