The Merritt Island ten-day forecast from Weather.com. They seem to be a believer in nascent #Helene. Thursday shows a 93% chance of thunderstorms with 27 MPH winds, for a storm on the opposite side of the state. But it's early.
From #News13: Tropical storm (likely to be named #Helene) projected to form later in the week, aiming for the Florida Panhandle.

@LnzyHou More like the woman who lives with him, methinks.
After #Biden took office in January 2021, a resident in a neighboring tract erected a flagpole in his front yard to fly a Biden campaign flag under the Communist Chinese flag. I suspect his HOA made him take it down, if not his neighbors, but it was there for a couple weeks.
File under, "Whoops" ...
From #WaPo: After extreme rules imposed on women, #Afghanistan #Taliban are now imposing extreme rules on men too. Men aren't happy about it.
@LnzyHou I have a neighbor two doors down who apparently at one point was working for the #Trump 2020 campaign. He had #MAGA parties all the time; one guy parked his pickup in the driveway with a giant Trump profile stencil on the side.
After the campaign, he continued to fly Trump flags on his house. The HOA must have said something, because he moved it into his garage, hanging it there.
The flag finally came down earlier this year. I haven't seen any MAGA parties.
@LnzyHou Yeah, that's about right. She has a U-Haul style cargo trailer covered with #Trump banners. She puts out some truly offensive stuff, e.g. a yard sign of Trump urinating on #Harris. She sometimes flies an upside-down U.S. flag atop a pole filled with Trump flags.
I'm reassured by never ever seeing anyone stopping for her odious little enterprise.
I've mentioned before the presence of a #Trump roadside stand around the corner from my house. I noticed the other day that it was gone. I found it today -- she's moved to U.S. 1 in Cocoa.
The old location never had anyone in the parking lot.
The new location had no one in the parking lot.
I'd sure like to know the business model for these vendors. I suspect Trump fleeces them for a license, sells them a bunch of crap wholesale, and they're stuck with it.
@cmskiera I set my DVR to record it last night, but the DVR crapped out. It repeats tonight.
#Harris accepts #CNN invitation to one more presidential candidate debate, on October 23. Will #Trump 🐔 out?

@MLClark It's not Leni Riefenstahl, but for this election it works. I can only imagine the State of the Union he could deliver.
A master class in campaign propaganda from Tim #Walz.
#MAGA majority on #Georgia election board orders that all presidential election ballots be counted by hand in November, in violation of multiple laws.

The 45-page greenhouse gas emissions report from the #California Air Resources Board is at:
https://ww2.arb.ca.gov/sites/default/files/2024-09/nc-2000_2022_ghg_inventory_trends.pdf
From California Air Resources Board:
*****
A report released today for 2022 greenhouse gas emissions shows a drop across most sectors that is the equivalent of removing more than 2.2 million gasoline-powered cars off California’s roads for one year.
The biggest drop came from transportation, due largely to the increased use of renewable fuels in addition to the growing strength of the zero-emission vehicle market.

From #LATimes: #California greenhouse gas emissions dropped 2.4% in 2002 thanks to electric vehicles and biofuels.
I had my flu vaccine today. 💉 😊
@LnzyHou It's sad. A decade ago, he was the vision for a better world. Now he's a joke, if not a menace.
How long will it take for Elon Musk to sue?
"Rising star #NYTimes technology reporters, Kate Conger and Ryan Mac, tell for the first time the full and shocking inside story of Elon Musk’s unprecedented takeover of #Twitter and the forty-four-billion-dollar deal’s seismic political, social, and financial fallout."

@elbutterfield The gun nuts can have their Second Amendment if they agree to limit their weapons to the blunderbuss. That's as originalist as it gets.
