Good morning everyone

Severe weather threat starts today.
Today is a small day that could see a possibility for Tornadoes. If they do form, they could be pretty strong. here is a outline for where they are possible. Green is mostly going to be hail area, the yellow area has the risk for tornadoes.


Tomorrow starts the major outbreak day. Sunday, Monday and Tuesday all have the potential to be record breaking tornado days. People who live in these Areas, Please take this seriously. An outbreak like this only happens once every few years.

Here is sundays outlook for severe weather:

Anyone in the yellow area stay cautious and everyone in the red area keep an eye out for the weather to turn in a instant.



Mondays:



Tuesdays:



Be very cautious, Strong violent tornado's can form in these areas on those days.

This radar updates every 15 min even on here if you need to check it


Stay safe

Hi 'Keane,
Your job sure makes you very unhappy & that's sad . I sure hope that you are searching for a better place to work.
I know that the Blog is a good place to share you frustrations in life, but you sure have been under a lot of stress with your job. I hope that you can find a better place that doesn't always drag your spirits down 4>Sure.

Wish you good luck on your search & finding something that will be less stressful and that you might enjoy.

I know you like electronics/computers etc. Maybe you could find a position in a store that sells them ? >Just a suggestion ? Good Luck!

====================================
Hi 'Devin,
Thanks for your weather report & letting member's know what Mother Nature has in store for them this weekend.
She sure can make it a good weekend or a bad one with her powers.

What's 'Devin doing this weekend ? I helped in the warehouses early this morning & today I have to clean the company motor coach. (Then I'm 'off ?) It's going to be another Hot one 2day with temp's in the 90's. Space loves the heat > I don't...

Wish you & member's a Super fun/safe & Happy Weekend.
Get out & EnJoy 4>Sure!


Getting your Monte 100%, or finding happiness, having fun etc....

Peace/Happiness from Bum'Mike

Good mornin' all. It was a slow day yesterday so I installed new lower A arms and replaced the transmission mount in my Monte. The bushings in the A arms were dry and cracked so I figured it was time to renew them. Best part was I got the complete assemblies (with new bushings and ball joint) for a great price. BTW - in order to take advantage of an improved design I installed A arms for a '12 Impala - bolts right in.

Good Morning Mike,
Sounds like a great improvement to your Monte.
Thanks for sharing. I think what you did is deserving of a thread
of it's own. I've never did any major suspension mod's or
repairs, but I know how important it is.
How long did it take to do ? (If you have the equipment/tools/knowledge to do ?)
What would it cost if a member took it to a shop to have done ?
What did it cost you ? (If U can share ?)
I think it would be a great thread to make on your update &
improvement to your awesome Monte S.S.
Thanks for sharing & being an active contributing member
to your Monte Carlo Family
Wish U & reader's a Safe/Super-Super WeekEnd!

Hey BumMike!
I'm with ya on the heat, i hate it! I don't know how you southerners do it! haha
Not much happening here this weekend, going to be watching this tornado outbreak closely. It's going to be a huge one, record breaking. unfortunately a lot of people could get hurt or die in this event, that's how big it will be. That's why i post this, and try to get the word out. People need to stay weather savvy in areas that have severe weather.

What are your plans when you get out of work? looks like a great beach day down there!

Cool >U Can't Control Mother Nature + + +<

Hi `Devin,
Yes, Mother Nature can harm many & end their journey's of life 4-ever. That's why the BeachBum Family always says "What 'if ?" Human beings are fragile & can break or stop working I have the highest respect 4 Mother Nature & have seen the damage/harm & devastation that she can 'do.

The other major danger is just driving > there sure are many idiots out there on the highways of life. Many will die or receive major injuries today from auto accidents.
Life can be dangerous 4-Sure. We must drive defensively 4-Real (Wait, I better run to my mirror & remind myself ) The more I drive, the more I see crazy people behind the wheel that should not have a license, but we have many in Florida that drive without a license or insurance.
Be safe out there on your highways of life 4-Sure!
============================================
Now, after typing the above > I'm just gona lock myself in the closet to be safe >LOL< Don't go anywhere >LOL<

When I get 'off & get permission to use a company ride I will go to the beach & hopefully meet `up with beachbum Tommy & hit a few waves or do some skateboarding. Tommy wants to go to a art show in Melbourne, Fl...(He paints & is pretty good & wants to see what others are painting) It sounds good to me & there always some nice looking ladies + good food there (lol)...


Time 'Out > Need more coffee > Wish U a safe & Happy Weekend >Thanks 4 U & all U do for your Monte Carlo Family
