The rain is good for the vegetation and all that, but the thunderstorm threat can be annoying and the humidity is oppressive when compared to the fantastic conditions from April to early July. In early July or late June there is nothing like 85 degrees with 2% humidity and then two weeks later its 80 with 50% humidity. The humidity is oppressive and horrible I tell you!

Aren't many speed detectors now based on laser Doppler?

I thought the laser guns measure the time for a pulse to return rather than measuring the frequency shift. There are jammers for the former type, at least. I have no idea how effective they are.

You are right... but it's tough to jam a laser (without being really obvious).
