WOW, now if we can just get 100 or so Navy planes to fly over the Vet Day fest. This Blue Angels flyover is too cool, get your cameras out boys and girls, opportunity's for some sort of photo prize I'm sure... "Skyline With Angels."

Hope the whole celebration isn't washed out with the projected Tropical Storm. Any contingency plans in case this thing heads for us??

Ock, I wouldn't be too worried. NWS shows no effects through the weekend on their current forecast and the NHC shows less than 10% probability over the next five days.

At the earliest, we would see affects by Tuesday. So, no worries.

I still can't believe it is physically possible for that thing to fly at all. I wonder if there is some sort of alien thecnology in there?
Still, VERY VERY VERY cool!!! I had a great time at the beach but had to leave before the Angels flew.
