Early as usual for Saturday's flight, I got a view of Mother Nature's fireworks at USSS:

Nick showed up just in time for the fun:

After taking off into the nasty weather, I caught sight of Nick as he's nursing his Citation up into the flight levels:

Ahhh, what beauty beholds us:

After reaching FL430, the right fuel tank decided to spring a bad leak, so I had to divert to a fog-ladened UWUU and quickly found out that
the ILS did not function. With the right tank now dry, the approach was quite squirrely due to the fuel imbalance:
