Just don't understand what's going on with the moisture down there. Do you like the G points are so much higher than um up north.
Obviously going their way. Yeah, we're going up north.
>> Thomas will probably get that rolled over things.
>> That's not CG then.
>> Probably his concept be called off because it's been rinsed.
>> Yeah, might as well go straight through on this one.
We can try and get some hail over. Yeah, let's try it. It's got Look, it's looking a bit better, isn't it? Now to the right.

>> I hear it as well.
>> It be quite nice.
>> Hard to hear it.
>> So, I've got a road I'm going to use here, >> which is this one. So, we stop at that point there and then you either follow it there if it takes off or you get the one behind that goes through to Electra.
>> Yeah.
>> Yeah. We stop at this point here.
Like they're drying out as well, though.
Oh, [ __ ] hell. My behind just shattered itself.

We made our bed today.
Lam not home.
This is really struggling.
Stop. There's 134. Yeah, this is all double CG. Right, we're just going to stop on this county road. Um, I'm going to get out and get a few sprinkles of rain, but you should get some really close lightning and some nice thunder from this. While we might as well wait and see if the one behind or this one can organize. It's got a good road. If it does take off to the east, if it fizzles, well, could be an early night.
It's chaser there.
>> And that would be pizza movie, pizza movie, pizza movie, pizza movie, pizza movie.
>> It certainly will be. But anyway, we're just going to stop down here. Should get some really nice close lightning bolts here.
