Peachtree Road Race Eve

Have you noticed that anything that happens, Global Warming is to blame? Today there was a thunderstorm at Wimbledon which stopped play (again), and the announcers asked rhetorically if this was caused by Global Warming.

Speaking of Wimbledon, it's been raining like crazy, with 5-6 rain delays just today. If they don't finish the 3rd round matches tomorrow, the tournament will be forced to play either the mens' championship on Monday, or the players would have to play 2 matches on one (or more) of the days. Apparently Wimbledon has occasionally gone into Tuesday or Wednesday of the third week. There is also a controversy why no play happened on the "People's Sunday", where traditionally no play occurs. Ironically the weather was beautiful that day...maybe it's a good thing that they did not attempt to play though because the Concert for Diana was that day at Wembley Stadium, and it did not rain (meanign that it might have if play had occurred).

There is a chance we may get a tropical system headed towards Florida...as of the 11:30 AM update, they have labeled it a system under investigation...conditions are somewhat favorable.
