This landslide occurred in Alta, Norway.
It developed on a marine clay substrate that had originally formed in the early Holocene epoch when the area was under sea level. There were no casualties.
Jesse gave Jimmy $400,000 to buy his parents' house, considering all his parents did to him.
This was the exact moment the house was SAULED.
Jesse could have done real financial damage to his parents but he allowed them to break even (and not bad..get it?)
$875k seems like an absurd price for New Mexico back then don’t it?
Sunshine, clouds, fresh spring leaves, and snow-capped mountains. What more could you ask for?

As is typical for unusually chilly air masses for this time of year, this event is associated with a tropopause polar vortex (TPV) rapidly transported SSE from northern Canada, keeping airmass modification relatively muted, while associated with a locally enhanced cold pool.
Not only is it impressive to see midday temperatures below 50F across southeast New England at the end of May, it is even more unusual to have it occur with predominantly northerly wind and not ENE onshore flow off the chilly waters.
Gnarly looking thing. Atypical to be dropping straight down from the north. A polar disturbance dislodged by the huge ridge building through central Canada
All the ingredients are there for a gigantic Pacific Jet extension later in week 2 & 3, which should lead to a more favorable pattern for 🌪️ by mid-June:
✅ Kara Sea ridge >> East Asia cold shot
✅ Mei-Yu front south of Japan
✅ Pacific MJO event
✅ Developing Super El Niño
@dampedspring Great post Andy! This is what keeps me up at night, and has done so for much of the last 20 years. In the long run, unfunded tax cuts and perpetual deficit spending does not increase growth or prosperity, but only takes it from the future.
Stealing from the future 101. This 101 will attempt to describe facts. It is not political except to say that the outcome was entirely bipartisan. It spans 46 years of a wide variety of political alignments.
The big takeaway is every single member of society has benefitted
