Compare the coastal storm surge areas from Helene (left) and Milton (right). Crazy difference depending on track. Wild to say but Tampa Bay was truly lucky at the last moment during Milton -- and then was still wrecked by historic rainfall and wind.

it’s great day when an overlooked academics-first college finally gets a seat at the table
Also, this is an interesting wrinkle: The chair of the selection committee is the UNC AD. Can he even really answer questions about this?.

Trump wants to cut 80% of the workforce that manages a type of aid to rebuild after disasters -- Tampa Bay govts are expecting $2.2 billion from them to rebuild sewage systems (that failed and flooded people) and are now worried about being able to use it:

it's now more likely for the asteroid to hit than it was for José Calderón to miss a free throw during his 2009 toronto raptors season.
NASA says the chance of an asteroid hitting Earth in 2032 has risen to 3.1%, up from 2.6% yesterday, the highest risk assessment ever recorded.

Only two Florida races listed competitive:. - FL-23: Lean DEM Hold (Moskowitz won '24 by 4.6). - FL-13: Likely REP Hold (Luna won '24 by 9.6).
Our 2026 House Race Ratings are now available. Democrats are only three seats from a House majority. The battleground of competitive races is small and evenly divided between the two parties. Read @ercovey & @MattKleinOnline's analysis:
