Thunder was rolling around between the mountains to the east of us. Then the sky got a lot darker, in that sudden way that feels like a power outage of God. — Barbara Kingsolver, in Demon Copperfield #WeatherInBooks

Wow! Check this out. I went from watching a babbling brook to being chased off the bridge by the flood in just like a minute. Had the drone up time lapsing as well. This is West Clear Creek in Camp Verde, AZ. #azwx #flashflood #Arizona #flood @NWSFlagstaff

So for what might be the first time, the Hail Camera captured a stone to stone interaction where a larger stone overtakes a smaller stone, and the resulting impact sheds a torrent of water that balloons upwards which wouldn’t have happened without the collision.

Oklahoma is one of those severely gerrymandered states. I'm skeptical that we'd be blue, but we were 32% blue in the 2020 Presidential race with gerrymandering in place, so we'd likely be much more purple.

Well, that's the thing. She has no problem with facial expressions when talking to credible leaders and adults-who-act-like-adults.
This guy did one major nationally televised press conference with hair dye running down his face, then booked a follow up one at Four Seasons Total Landscaping instead of the Four Seasons Hotel.

In other words, he knows he lost.
Trump world take 1: "We won and won by a lot." Trump world take 2: "Harris cheated by preparing in advance like some kind of nerd." Trump world take 3: "We were defeated by rigged unfair media." Trump world take 4: "We were betrayed by enemies within."
