Nice examples. I resemble the first one and definitely appreciate all the advantages in the third one (and they are vast and multifaceted). The guy in the middle, well, he's basically the guy in the middle. And from the expression on his face, looks like he knows it.
First day update: No umbrellas really needed today. Warm, brilliantly sunny, but very pleasant, not overly humid, with a nice breeze from time to time. Once your clothes got damp it was nice and comfortable.
This is such a challenging track to get right-- Lot of work to do before the weekend!
