Hey, looking at that picture, and not being a Floridian, is it normal for the 10-day forecast to show "Scattered Thunderstorms" each and every frickin' day?

In summer time, YES!
This is our normal pattern. It's just took a long time getting started this year, but that's it's here, it's HERE.

Yeah, you know it's the typical summer weather pattern when the news lists everyday as 50% chance of showers, lol. Guess they figure they have the best odds to be right that way!

They'll only be half right at 50%. Quick glance does show decreasing storm threats into next week.

Beautiful historic pictures.
Is it really the last Space Shuttle liftoff?
Hard to imagine...

In the STS-135 press kit:
(1) page 63: The reported mission duration is incorrect.
(2) says that TriDAR will fly with Atlantis? Has this been a very recent decision to add TRiDAR for the mission?

It has been included since at least Sept 2, 2010 when it was listed as an approved payload update at a PRCB (Program Requirements Control Board) meeting - document is on L2.
This is our normal pattern. It's just took a long time getting started this year, but that's it's here, it's HERE.
