Meteorologists have gotten really good at predicting disruptive events like hurricanes, blizzards, and tornado outbreaks with precision only dreamed of 30 years ago. Hurricane track forecasting has improved so that a four-day forecast now is about as accurate as a one-day forecast was back in 1991.

The news today from Hays and Philadelphia isn't exactly great. But giving up means that the decision makers will go with their worst instincts, which will involve selling fossils and other natural history specimens to the highest bidder. That needs to be avoided, so speak up.

A bit windy, but you can still hear me! (Kind of!) This Nor’easter is reaching its peak. Moderate to major coast of flooding & 60 mph gusts. We’ve also seen 11 inches of sea level rise since the 1940s, six of those inches have happened since 1990. This helps water reach farther inland.
