By The Numbers
Florida Wind Map
October 14, 2018With
the devastation of Hurricane Michael, it is interesting to learn that the
Florida Building Codes say Michael took a wrong turn.
The
Florida Building Code says different parts of Florida have different
wind speed requirements. The Florida Keys might have to withstand 180
mph wind gusts. Miami only has to withstand 160 mph wind gusts. And
Mexico Beach only has to withstand 130 mph winds. Michael got up to 155
mph. Still, most of the damage occurred to older structures.
Hurricane Michael may have “damaged” the
statue of Nathaniel Greene
in Savannah, Georgia by putting googly eyes on it. Savannah police are
looking for whoever vandal-eyed the statue or any eye-witnesses.

Everyday
Rain
October 8, 2018We've
had rain, misty rain, all-out downpours, and drizzle.
A
week ago I heard Minnesota soybean and corn farmers needed a clear day
to harvest the crops.
They have not had it. It
hasn't rained all the time, but there also hasn't been a clear day to
dry up muddy fields.
Climate change maps show a
wetter Minnesota -- a crop damaging, business and home damaging wet.

Trump
Paper
October 5, 2018
Yesterday,
on his way to Minnesota of all places, this happened. Toilet paper was
stuck to President Trump's shoe on his way up the stairs to Air Force
One.
Yet the Internet thinks it was the
Constitution that was stuck to his shoe. Or his tax return. Or the
New
York Times investigation into the half billion dollars Fred
Trump put in his son Donald's name to avoid taxes. Or else TP stands
for trade partnerships.
The next
president will have a tough act to follow.
