Got up on a roof in central Florida with my nephew to do a little training and compare two different antennas on a satellite pass. The sun came in and out of the clouds often. Combining the warm December temperatures, humidity and the dark roof surface I came down a little sweaty.

On the last day of 2024 it is always interesting to assess the year that just passed and contemplate what lies ahead. 2023 was the warmest year on record regarding global temperatures. The consensus is that 2024 will end up being warmer still. At this moment there is a polar vortex sending frigid temperatures to the midwest and northeast. Ironically, climate change makes these events more likely. Searching for opportunities to dial down carbon emissions would be a great new year's resolution.
