alberteinstien: That has to be the most complete and correct statement of the day. Tootles.

One must contemplate whether the weather provides any instance of stability or indication of other events, such as the Democrat thingy in the State of Mecklenburg County. Such contemplations would provide some interesting evaluation of whether the rip's are on both events... as in rip off.

Rips currents are ok to swim in if you know what you are doing. They have a predictable pattern that stays the same, but you only have to know how to read them correctly. They never bother me, but I'm a good swimmer.

-V-A-V-A-V- So true. I guess if someone doesn't want to know about rip currents, hurricanes, tornadoes, or severe thunderstorms, they can ignore the National Weather Service all they want. Check out a book called Warnings to find out about the lives the NWS saves.

We don't need no big gov't weather service telling us when we can swim. It's an afront on our freedoms. The Ryan budget does away with the National Weather Service once and for all.
