  And once the threat by Hanna passes by, here comes Ike.  Possibly.
  

  
  Way too early to call.

• Just saying.  That's why I said possibly.
  
  And just mentioning that behind Ike is another potential storm named Josephine.  It's gonna be quite interesting to see if Atlantis makes her 10/11 launch date with all these storms forming in quick succession.

• FYI, the Boston Globe put together an excellent series of 23 pictures from the STS-125 processing and related preparations. I thoroughly enjoyed these:

  Aren't those NASA.gov images? Nice images, but we've seen them before I'm sure. The good factor is a potentially new audience.
