I haven't shut up about this since I read this study:
The gap between housing costs and wage growth is actually WAY larger in fast-growing rural areas than in cities. 👀👀 And is has been since the pandemic.
This @thirdwaytweets data shows that the gap between home costs and wage growth is nearly 44% in fast-growing rural areas (places that remote urban workers moved to during/after the pandemic). That's almost 10% higher than in urban areas.

Florida doesn't have much in common with the desolate Sahara Desert.
But in the coming days, and especially this weekend, those two places will be connected by a seasonal weather pattern that carries vast plumes of Saharan dust some 6,000 miles across the Atlantic.

I have a new story with @rfelliott on how @Meta and other technology companies, seeking power for data centers, are building their own onsite natural gas power plants.
These buildouts have transformed places like New Albany, Ohio.

Good overview here.
In today's @washingtonpost: Rare risk for strong tornadoes covers the Mid-Atlantic.
Important context from @MatthewCappucci: A higher-end outcome isn’t a lock because of uncertain storm behavior.
A good day to have notifications ON from @capitalweather!

Going back to my fighting with SkillUp about The Division days to say that there's just a lot factually wrong in here (bosses, events, contracts), plus the extremely funny claim that ARC Raiders has better quests
