No rain and only a little bit of mist (at 14°C) in the morn'n turning sunny and quite warm soon enough. With all the sun and the humidity there are bound to be, localised, thunderstorms.

Still testing and changing the correction program. With a few assists to Ronny thrown in.
Yep, fairly standard day.

 

Mailbank seems to be having a serious problem at its hands. During the week I have my mail forwarded to my account at work and in the weekends I switch that forwarding off. So, last Friday I switched it off. The switch did proceed but the status page at their web site did not register the change. That has happened before so I don't really care.
Sunday evening (around midnight locally which should be in the early evening on the Mailbank servers) I switched forwarding back on. Yesterday morning I was not getting any mail so I checked. The status page remained unchanged, showing the redirection change of 26^th. The forwarding form does show forwarding to be active and their server status page claims a smooth recovery from a power outage on Friday as last event.
Yesterday evening I found all my mail at home so redirection was not working. I switch it off on the redirection form and back on again half an hour later. The status pages don't change.
Today the redirection still isn't working so I get all my mail at home, after 20h00. I haven't lost mail (I think) but I don't like the situation. Mailbank didn't react to my 'complains' (softly) yet. Maybe with Independence day passed they come back into the office. Probably to "press ANY key" on a console or something in that vein.

So if you sent mail just be patient, I get round to it in the evening. If you expect an answer soon you'd best use my office account (qjsw @ oce;nl).

 

Did I mention the chance on some thunderstorms?
On the way home, on the highway, I met up with one. Visibility dropped from normal to about 10m. Like driving into a wall of water.
Coupled with rather dense trafic at around 120Km/h is not funny. Especially with fools slamming on the brakes and swerving off to the right without being able to see if there is free space at the right. I didn't hit anything and I wasn't hit by anything (I did 'jump' to the fast lane and slowed down gradually to a still unreasonable 80Km:h). Wizards luck?
Typical for this type of shower it rains harder than that the water can run off the road so in no time you are driving in a few centimeter of water but about ten kilometer further you're back on dry road and in the sunshine.

Adios
