My work is, at this very moment you are reading this, generating the most income it ever has in my career. Yet, I was forced to shut down the professional side of my successul operation, against my will, due to one cause alone: 95% of that revenue is being stolen by piracy and copyright infringement. I've lost more than $1 million to copyright infringement in the last 15 years, and it's finally brought an end to my professional storm chasing operation. Do not be misled by the lies of infringers, anti-copyright activists and organized piracy cartels. This page is a detailed, evidenced account of my battle I had to undertake to just barely stay in business, and eventually could not overcome. It's a problem faced by all of my colleagues and most other creators in the field.
It's 71 degrees here at the house right now, with no rain in sight. An unexpectedly perfect day for me to get out and finish getting the leaves cleaned up in the back yard and do some work on my gutters. Looking at the Midwestern view of the METAR observations, there is quite the spectrum of weather and temperatures across the country. In the upper left side of this map, there's a reading of 19F in southern Minnesota, freezing drizzle in Iowa, and snow in Wisconsin and Michigan. Quite a temperature contrast across the frontal boundary in Indiana - 63F in Bloomington, and below freezing at 30F at Grissom Air Force Base in Peru. The frontal boundary is easily picked out on this map by the wind shift and temperature gradient.
