You mean plutonium doesn’t look like a vial of cherry flavored cough syrup suspended in a larger vial of water?

Until a few years ago my cat used to make a mad dash for the outside any time i had the door open. There were a few times where she’d ninja her way out while I’d bring in groceries or something, and she’d be gone for days.

Now I could leave the door wide open for any given time and she’ll just sit there staring at it from her spot on our couch. She’s getting pretty old though (about 13 years) so I’m wondering if she’s become aware of her own vulnerability. She’s still spry regardless but she couldn’t care less anymore about escaping.

In my town, before the Interstates were put in, the county/state transportation departments bought out and set aside strips of land in the 1950s and kept them empty for 20-30 years until construction started in the 1970s. Trees grew in during that time while the land around it got built up. It’s weird looking at maps and aerial photos from that time period and seeing empty space. They would have become cool little wooded areas if the highways were never built.

I’m assuming the same happened in New Orleans in the “before” picture: the highway was planned and the land was bought out well in advance, and trees grew in during that time.

That’s an impressive hook. I’m curious to see Storm-Relative Velocity data from that 15kft slice.

I used to have all kinds of weather nerd programs on my old PC, like GrlevelX etc. Radar apps for phones just aren’t the same.
