That's a spicy take. I get where you're coming from and there have been many improvements to the city since, but it also started a decade of the city council focusing on the downtown many times to the detriment of the rest of the city.

I get that and there was obviously a lot of pain for a lot of people to get where we are now and where we will be in a couple of years but in my mind the city is in a much better position now then we were then. The massive redevelopments and improvements (and I am not talking about time check or kingston village) would not have happened without it. We would still have abandoned packing houses and other old industrial areas just rusting away,

Broke a record for 24 hour average AQI yesterday in Minneapolis.

Highest I saw yesterday on my phone app was 240 for my exact area

One of the best things to happen here IMO.

Yep, no question.

Noticed that a bit ago when I went out to get the mail, visibility has gone down since my bike ride 4 hours ago.

Wash plays Jeff in baseball tonight. I wonder if they will postpone it.

saw some beans that were planted 3 weeks ago and still not up, corn only 4 inches tall. Omaha said 14" of rain needed to get year to date totals up to normal.

The weather here in north Texas has been kind of crazy for the last week. Pretty much every day, thunderstorms pop up that produce large (like baseball to softball) size hail. The coverage area of the big hail has generally remained small, but somebody does get pounded. The biggest hail I've gotten at my place so far has been marble size. It looks like today should be the last day.

Big hail here is nothing new, but I can't say I remember a pattern where it has been a week straight.

I don't care what anyone says 14 inches is not normal.

Corn in a field I drive by to and from work in Ames is fairly tall for mid-June, but I noticed a lot of leaf rolling today.

That version of that song...absolutely ROCKS!

I saw a girl tweet that she thinks it's normal LMAO

All games cancelled. Tomorrow too. Really stinks outside right now.

Sounds like this was due to a lack of umps not the smoke.

Dang, sounds more like Houston. HLH, aka Houston Like Humidity, was what I used to call it on the occasions I'd visit.
