A Reason To Drink Indoors

By From http://www.musingsoverapint.com/ • Jul 17th, 2013 • Category: Blog Entries.Local

From The Washington Times:

Roughly 20 percent of people are more frequent meal tickets for mosquitoes than the rest of the population, and Smithsonian Magazine set out to investigate: Why? 

Beer drinkers beware. Mosquitoes love the brew. 



Simulating Distant Targets

By From http://www.musingsoverapint.com/ • Jul 17th, 2013 • Category: Blog Entries.Local

One of the limitations at my local range is that all targets must be placed at the base of the berm. This rule means that although we can shoot from any distance from 0 to 25 yards, all the targets must be set along the same line. It makes it impossibl…



Sometimes the best action occurs near home

Tuesday storms worth chasing?

By From http://stormsrus.blogspot.com/ • Jul 15th, 2013 • Category: Blog Entries.Local

Tomorrow there is a small  (30%) chance of storms south of I-64 and east of the Blue Ridge mountains.  CAPE is okay (>2500) but shear is almost non-existent while storm motion is very slow…I could probably chase on foot and keep up.&nbsp…

After what seems like weeks of non-stop rain, the skies finally cleared in time for the Saturday morning fun match at the Cedar Mountain Youths range. Due to the spate of poor weather and other commitments it’s been a couple weeks since I was able to g…
