The weather's been ok in Kansas on meet days. a bit cold but its warmed up. One day though we had a horrible cross wind and i almost got blown off the mat. But other than that Kansas has been great.
Except for the tornados ;)
Lets get high...

Supposed to be in the upper 90's in Austin this week for the Texas state meet. I'm sure there will be a tail wind to go with it!!!

Friday-partly sunny, with a high near 95. South wind 5 to 10 mph becoming north northwest.

Well no skin cancer here in Ohio, Yet another meet canceled due to the wonderful rainy days. But I guess better this week than next week at leagues.
