Trying his best to be helpful, the controller kept
trying to vector me into a big black wall of CN,
telling me he had only level 1 or 2 echoes.

But my stormscope was lighting up, and having
flown through a couple of thunderstorms back in
the early 50s, when I was in the marines and
there was no wx radar, I had no intention of going
into that stuff. I landed at an alternate.
