  Now that I know the answer,  yes I can see the tow truck lights through the windshield, back window of
the truck.
   Bad boy to mess with BJ like that.   ;) :)
   Aside from that,  nice panel mounts.

   Holy crap--some serious rain was had.  Hard to say for sure from photos, but some of those houses
might have indoor pools.

BJ -

Yeah it's been over a week now with only teases of sunlight, and lots and lots and lots of rain..

The empty lot and the space behind it is affectionately/sarcastically referred to around here as the swimming pool... nobody will build on it. To make matters worse however, the city ok'd the apartments behind (not really all that visible in the pics), causing the only drainage path that existed for it to be cut off. So now the water flows in, but is very reluctant to leave. :-\

Next couple days supposed to *finally* transition back into seeing sunlight... for many, it's going to be something between very welcomed and getting reaccustomed to it's presence LOL

My stance, with all that said, is 3 days without sun after PV goes up is a lie... Turns out if you do it right, you can summon a lunar eclipse, a front, a strong hurricane, and even get the jet stream to break off another strong low that'll chase the hurricane out. In weather-forecaster speak, they apparently call it "the rain event of 1 in 1000 years". Just gotta know how to do it... Or stumble on all of it by accident like I did :P

a few years back when we were traveling ....my wife in the passenger seat dozing would wake up
just at the wrong time to see the back end of a semi ......about 3ft. in front of us ....
what had happened was the semi had passed us at about 70 when we were going 60 and whipped over in front of us like they do and was rapidly pulling away from us ...but having just woke up all she could see was
TRUCK !
She would be Wide Awake!     : )

Here's some pics of the new ambient outside probe, in progress. The inside pipe sticking up needs to be cut off... but I think this position will be better than the other one (running all around, up under the back ziptied to the bumper/frame.)

Hopefully it'll pick up a little less running/standing/parked engine heat... we will see.
