Did you think spring was cool? Think again… Several sites like Houston & Raleigh had their warmest spring on record (March, April, May), several more had their top 5 warmest. None had coolest or top 5 coolest. These are based on sites with at least 70 years of data (most have more than a century).

NASA, NOAA, and climate sites do adjust data. Why is data adjusted at all? 1. Resolution 2. Urban Heat Island 3. Location 4. Tech Data is NOT manipulated to make it look worse. It just is worse on a scale of warming. tinyurl.com/562f7epa Thanks to @gingerzee.bsky.social for breaking it down.

Los Angeles had more rain than they’ve had in ~9 months. Next few hours critical for burn scars (#hughesfire) Above 3000 ft snow making mountain passes (I-5, I-15) unsafe. If Phoenix does not get measurable rain , could break all-time longest stretch without,(160 days, 1972).

We just had a story about the "new reality of retail" because RETURNS will no longer be free. I wanted to add: reducing returns by not making it free also has a positive environmental impact since 25% of online returns go to a landfill: penntoday.upenn.edu/news/how-con...
