75 mph wind gusts right here yesterday.
My neighbor to the west has a giant cottonwood in his backyard and every time it blows really hard or we have an icing event I get really nervous that fucking thing is gonna drop a limb through my house. And of course my bedroom is right in the way, too.

There is a huge oak outside my bedroom. I've slept on the couch a few nights when there was really high winds. But Micheal leaned it over about 15 degrees away from the house. Now I'm not so worried.

I heard about this new report this morning on NPR. (in a google search I had to scroll past all the paid posts telling me emissions were getting lower before I found it) It seems a lot of what were called leaks are really just gas vented when they do work on the lines.

Major studies reveal 60% more methane emissions
EDF discovered that methane leaks can undo some or all of the climate benefits we think we’re getting when we substitute natural gas for coal or oil.

There are methane leaks everywhere they're drilling and fracking in the West. Colorado's answer to the problem is to delay buying monitoring requirement and then say we don't have a problem.I heard about this new report this morning on NPR.

Another big source of climate affecting emissions are burning coal mines. Yes, there are hundreds of them, all over the country, all of them spewing CO2 and worse; in fact, one that's suspected of starting the Marshall Fire near Boulder Colorado has been burning for over 100 years!

If you have beachfront property in the Gulf or up the east coast,I suggest selling.
I predict property in Colorado will continue to rise in value, due to people with wet feet buying someplace where they never have to look at an ocean again.
Me, I'm thinking about buying a boat; rising tides, right?!

I wouldn't worry unless you have some real long legged genes. My lowest land is 65 feet above sea level down at the creek. Even at a foot every hundred years. . . . . .

That's not beachfront property, though.
You do realize you live at higher altitude than fully half of America's population, right?

Sandhill. Here at the house I'm close to 100 feet. Seven miles into town, and it's 120 feet. But as I can attest from the time I rode a bike to school, there are a couple three big hills between here and there.
