"Oh, hon, look at the sky" my wife said to me last night. I peeked out through the blinds and raced downstairs to grab the clamshell case holding my DJI Mini 3 drone. Storm clouds were rolling and lightning was flickring. The wind was also up and I couldn't get the drone over 40m high for that reason, but it only got the odd warning at that level, which worked.
However, as the famous quote goes, it was "a lot of sound and fury signifying nothing." Not a drop hit last night. Pity, we could use the moisture.
