Is he that large?!

We probably would have given the TX guys a run if I'd looked earlier. In any case, a lot cooler than it has been by about 8-9 degrees in fact.

A cool 28oC at the moment (well it is 7am!), but that will no doubt climb into the mid-30's again today.

From the Bermuda Weather Service:
TS Colin is a threat to Bermuda. Conditions will continue to deteriorate tonight as wind and shower activity increases along with the risk of isolated thunderstorms. Tropical storm conditions are expected to begin Saturday around noon and persist through early Sunday morning as Colin passes just west of the Island. Conditions gradually improve on Sunday. Please check for updates regularly.
Saturday -
Overcast, rain and showers, heavy at times, risk thunder... Winds south-southeasterly strong gusts to gale force, increasing strong to gale force gusts to storm force by noon, then gale force to storm force gusts to storm force in the evening, variable at times overnight, veering southerly late night... High near 29°C/84°F.
Sunday -
Sunny breaks, patchy rain or showers, risk early thunder... Winds southwesterly strong to gale force gusts to storm force, easing strong by noon, moderate to strong in the afternoon, south-southwesterly moderate overnight... Low near 26°C/78°F, high near 29°C/85°F.

I suspect the temperature is slightly higher at work The power went out, the backup generator keeps the computers and all the systems running but the a/c is off Thankfully I changed my schedule today and left early...

Oh, and that last bit about the Pacaya doesn't sound fun

Well, sorry I wasn't playing along, I was in KOZA and KSJT all day today. The thermometer in the car once got up to 107 when we were in downtown SJT at about 1600 local, most of the day it was around 104-105 and a little bit of humidity because there were some evening thunderstorms in the area. It was warmer there today than it was in MAF, that's for sure.

Early afternoon update...
