    I made the whoopie slings and and those connect to a 6 foot section of amsteel with brummel splices on both ends. Then I bought some 12kn carabiners, and those connect to my stakes and the whoopee slings. The poles are Tensa Solo's, so they collapse down to the length of your forearm. When you buy those, you have the option to include the hardware with them, but I thought they were charging way too much for that, so I opted to buy just the poles and make everything else myself. The system works really well. https://www.tensaoutdoor.com/product/tensa2-hammock-stand-formerly-tiggzcraftworkz-carcamp-tele/

    Set up my Mantis and tarp for the first time this weekend. Set-up is so quick and easy. Also, I played with a suspension system that doesn’t need trees. I can now hang a hammock on the beach without anything else (or above the tree line, or if I only have one tree).

    Nice, what is the name of that vid? Asking for me.

    The newer WSR-88D stations that allow for Super Resolution are just awesome.The pixels are actually small enough where you don't have to have smoothing turned on anymore (I still like the smoothing). I mostly look at level 2 data, since they don't require pricey subscriptions like the level 3 stuff does, but it seems like more and more the tech is getting better and better (its not like 5-6 years ago where I would pay for the subscriptions during storm season). I'm hoping that the price of the equipment drops significantly soon, as there are still some dead spots that do not have good coverage (or in some places, no coverage).

    Ambient Weather WS-2902a and the Ambient Weather App. It’s also great, cause it has a URL you can bookmark so you can see it on all your devices without an app, nor sharing it with friends/family.

    I’m in 78748, my rain gauge says 5.83 right now and still going up. Was raining at 6 inches per hour for a bit.

    If you are in Tomball/Spring, this thing looks bad. Headed straight for my in-laws place.

    @phdhorn, any updates for this evening? Just went to grab lunch and it is gorgeous out. I have softball at 7:30, so I figure this shit will likely hit right at 7, so I have to drive all the way to the park before it gets cancelled.

    So I had something come up for Saturday, so looks like this weekend is out.
