As there is thunder/lightning around, I have decided to disconnect antennas and switch off the rigs. The storms are getting closer according to http://www.lightningmaps.org/realtime?lang=en . As much as I'd like to continue to monitor on 6m, I think to go QRT is the right decision tonight. There will be plenty of other times to monitor 6m and 10m.
UPDATE 2110z: The worst of the storms missed us. However, there is a lot of storm activity around still, so the rigs and antennas will remain off tonight. Meanwhile I am watching Brazil getting beaten by Holland. Current score Brazil 0 Holland 2. Unless Brazil create some magic, they are doomed.
UPDATE 2207z: Would not like to be in the Brazilian national football team this evening.
