Didn’t get any thunderstorms here, but I saw lightning in the distance. The development of them was interesting, imagine being a meteorologist tasked with trying to predict where they would develop and when. Some places get half an inch of rain, other places get nothing. It’s a mugs game, innit?

"These times are chaotic and unprecedented." Chaotic = yes. Unprecedented = no. History suggests humanity has stood at this intersection before, many times. 1940s = New Deal 1860s = Civil War 1770s = Revolutionary War Times like these ALWAYS feel like the first time, because for US... they are.
