A starting QB with one hand, and they're having their best season in years. As far as I know, we at KSHU covered this story before the big TV guys did. So proud of Stephanie for this story. There are stories everywhere.

The European mind is slowly starting to comprehend SEC football. This was absolutely insane today!

Man breaks down in tears after his wife and daughter were killed by lightning in Florida. Kenya Glasgow, 31, and her 2-year-old daughter were found on the sidewalk in Margate, Florida. "It's gonna be tough to lose somebody that I've been with for half my life. It's just gonna be tough, but I'll be okay, because I have to be, because I have another beautiful daughter that's inside..." Heartbreaking.

Starbase Louisiana will ultimately have over a dozen launch towers, enabling more than 30 Starship flights per day and making it the biggest launch site on Earth! SpaceX makes sci-fi real.
Introducing Starbase, Louisiana – a high-cadence launch site that will enable Starship to open a pathway to the stars for humanity. Thank you to @LAGovJeffLandry and the great people of Louisiana for all of their support as we work together on this audacious project → spacex.com/sites/starbase-la

My new essay in JoBEM’s special issue “AI, Misinformation, and the Future of Algorithmic Fact-Checking" discusses how complex TV weather graphics may overload viewers, & how theoretically grounded graphic design strategies should still apply the AI era. tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.…

You may notice a yellow-ish tint to the sky the next couple of days as a plume of Saharan dust moves through Louisiana. The highest concentration of dust will be across northern, central, and southwestern Louisiana. Take caution of you have pre-existing respiratory conditions.

Amazing photos of a Severe Thunderstorm (possibly classified as "destructive") from a friend in Signal Mountain, TN looking toward Lookout Mountain, TN/GA.

A beautiful lightning show last night over the newly constructed Bowers Stadium facility at @SamHoustonState. They literally put the letters on a few days ago @BearkatSports Storms created large hail, with a report of baseball, and confirmed reports of quarter-sized hail nearby

Speaking of El Paso, the fabled Pancho's Mexican Buffet got its start in that West Texas city back in 1958. Traces of Texas reader Franco Ruiz kindly sent in this photo and asked "Traces, when's the last time you raised the flag?" I thought about it and can't remember, exactly, but it must have been in the 1980s. And then I thought that it's a shame that there is a whole generation of Texans that have grown up not knowing what "raise the flag" means. I realize that there are still four Panchos in Texas, but unless you live in D-FW or Houston, you're not going to be tasting the epic goodness of their sopapillas. When's the last time YOU raised the flag?

With all we try to explain regarding the hurricane forecast cone, I hope there aren't many meteorologists sharing this graphic. The "landing area" makes it look as if the possibility of landing on terrain is part of the plan.
