Scientists find two ways that hurricanes rapidly intensify
New study may help forecasters better predict dangerous storms
Scientists at NCAR have identified two entirely different modes of hurricane rapid intensification. The findings may lead to better understanding and prediction of these dangerous events

This is a great example of how there isn't always a single answer.  Sometimes there is more than one pattern or cause, and conflating them can make it impossible to solve the problem.  In particular, things that look similar but aren't may need different responses.

There are three open epics at present.

"Within the Souls of Men" belongs to Shiv. Shiv and Ben realize that it's been a rough week for everyone, for different but related reasons.

"Before You Can Love Me" belongs to Iron Horses. Warshirt is so very confused about how the totem girls treat him.

"That Light Bulb in Your House with a Short in It" belongs to Shiv, Iron Horses, and Foster Fiasco. The Iron Horses ask for Shiv's help in rescuing a tribal child from an inappropriate foster home.


The weather has been cool here. We got a good soaking rain. Seen at the birdfeeders this week: a few house finches and a cardinal. Currently blooming: moss rose, snapdragons, marigolds, verbena, petunias, portulaca, white alyssum, blue lobelia, morning glory, impatiens, cosmos, cypress vine, zinnias, sedum, thistle, pineapple sage.

For the beginning of this storyline, see my poem "That Light Bulb in Your House with a Short in It."
