I was thinking one could sneak in behind the storm, but if it's moving S or SW, then ya, waiting might be a good idea. It's dark out there.

On my short flight yesterday the storm scope was lighting up like a Christmas tree down south. It only sprinkled here yesterday AN.

As usual, the storm turned out way more benign than it looked. Some heavy rain, not much wind, very little lightning. Any run-of-the-mill summer thunderstorm in Iowa is WAY more violent than anything we get on the island.
And today, everything has been scrubbed clean, humidity is low, and temps are in the low 70s. AKA: "Perfect"!

No problem Jay, you can do it and we're all counting on you ... that's all "ground reflection" and background noise. Probably just light sprinkles

I was watching that storm from about 100 miles away last night (airborne), and even if it wasn't nasty on the ground, I would NOT have flown in it.

Come on Ryan ... you're making us Texans looks like wussies. What Ryan meant to say was that he would not fly in it for fear of his beer sloshing around .... right Ryan?
