Thirty-seven years ago today, 14 inches of rain fell in four hours in the mountains southwest of Fort Collins below Rocky Mountain National Park. This produced a massive flood which killed 143 people.

Officers Purdy and Conley gave their lives to warn as many people as they could before the flood waters hit. They knew that they would not survive, but saved dozens or hundreds of lives by warning people to get up to higher ground.

This was back during a different time – when the job of the police was to protect the citizenry.

The weather will turn sour in about a week, and the rowers are stuck on a tiny island with 90% of the journey left to go.

Is there some reason they haven’t arranged to be rescued yet? Are they looking to be martyrs for Jabba The $500 Million Manbearpig?

Breaking: Arctic Ice Breaks Up in Beaufort Sea.

Mar 23, 2013

For the record—I do not think that any sea ice will survive this summer. An event unprecedented in human history is today, this very moment, transpiring in the Arctic Ocean.

The cracks in the sea ice that I reported on my Sierra Club Canada blog and elsewhere over the last several days have spread and at this moment the entire sea ice sheet (or about 99 percent of it) covering the Arctic Ocean is on the move. Clockwise. The ice is thin, and slushy, and breaking apart.

The way things are headed, we may see a doubling of the amount of multi-year ice in the not too distant future.

How are they going to lie their way out of this one?
