As a forecaster you worry about three primary threats from hurricanes—strong winds, storm surge, and inland rainfall.
Usually a hurricane brings one or two of these threats to a region, but not typically all three. For example, in the Houston region during my lifetime here, we have seen extreme rainfall from Hurricane Harvey, in 2017, and a powerful storm surge from Hurricane Ike in 2008. But Harvey didn't really bring serious wind or surge into the Houston area, and while Ike had some damaging winds, most of the city did not see hurricane-force conditions.
Ian is a monster that will bring all three threats into Southwest Florida with devastating effect.
The National Hurricane Center now forecasts a storm surge of 12 to 16 feet from Englewood to Bonita Beach, Florida. The large wind field associated with Ian will destroy structures along the Western Florida coast and likely knock electricity offline to one-half or possibly two-thirds of the state. Because Ian is moving slowly, and expected to slow further as its steering currents weaken, it will deluge the state. Nearly the entire Florida peninsula is at risk for flash flooding, with a large chunk of the middle of the state, including Tampa, Orlando, Jacksonville, and the Space Coast, at a "high" risk of flash flooding.

EDIT: Saying that one has a favorite sibling strikes me as similar to saying one has a favorite child. I will not say that any of my siblings are less important to me than another, even if one or another has given me cause to feel that way.

I've been trying to catch as many of his ABs as possible and got to see this one. Chilling to watch. Looking forward to #62. It's cool that Maris Jr. has been following him around.
I think there are enough witnesses, and enough of them on tape, to confirm all those balls actually sailed out of the ball park, whether anyone at MLB likes it or not.
I agree with this. Related but out of the blue - Bud Selig was easily the worst Commissioner of Major League Baseball. And that's saying a lot since it also includes the like of Bowie Kuhn!
I had been watching his last 4 or 5 games but didn't watch last night. Heard in the middle of the game that he hadn't hit one and didn't turn it on. He can thank me.

The San Francisco Giants beat the Colorado Rockies 6-3 on Wednesday night. I could talk about the game a bit, and in a roundabout way, I will. I could talk about how the Giants have now won eight of their last nine games, but I don’t know how many more words I can say on that. Doesn’t really need expanding.
Here’s what I actually want to talk about: 2023. Because, despite technically having a case of the Still In This Things, the Giants are playing for 2023. They’re playing to figure some things out.
One of those things to figure out is the bullpen, which struggled for much of this season. But a funny thing happened to the bullpen: as the Giants shuffled through things, DFA’ing disappointing players like Jake McGee and José Álvarez, and optioning subpar performers like Sam Long and Zack Littell, they started to find the buttons that worked.
They’ve done it folks. The 2022 Dodgers have put together the strongest regular season in franchise history, winning their 107th game of the regular season. Behind yet another dominant performance from Julio Urias, the Dodgers escaped with a 1-0 extra-inning victory.
There was one very common theme in this game; the Dodgers struggled mightily with runners in scoring position, and it began in the very first inning. Mookie Betts led off the game with a double before advancing to third base on an error and found himself stuck on third with two outs and the bases loaded after walks to Freddie Freeman and Max Muncy. Joe Musgrove struck out Joey Gallo to escape the early jam. Three runners stranded.
After stranding two more runners in the second, the Dodgers next best opportunity to get on the scoreboard came in the fifth inning. Mookie led off the inning with his second hit of the game, and once again, with two outs and the bases loaded following a walk to Freeman and a Muncy hit by pitch, Gallo found himself at the plate with the bases loaded.
If Kimbrel does, it'll be in a non-high leverage situation.
Gallo still plays good D but man he strikes out a lot. Which is what he did with the Yankees. Without Gallo, the OFs are Klay's brother, CT3, Bellinger, and Betts. IF are JT, TT, Muncy, FF, Lux, Hanser. Will Smith and Barnes catching. so that's 12 which I think leaves one more spot. Not sure there is another position player they'd bring up to replace him.
Per a U Chicago poll, five percent of Americans believe that deadly force is justified to return Donald Trump as President. Included in that 5% is 3% of Democrats.
Remember when there was a rumor that Trump asked for the USS John McCain to be moved out of sight when he visited Japan because he despised its namesake so much and he later publicly denied it? A guy did a FOI request after it and he just got the response. Of course it was the truth.
Remember when Robert Kraft got caught in a sting at a Florida rub-and-tug? And later, it was discovered that the owner was a big Florida madam and yuge Trump supporter, publishing tons of selfies with the Orange Julius. And then it came out that she was likely violating donation laws. Well, the FEC decline to prosecute her as the half-split DEM/GOP committee didn't get a majority to vote to prosecute. That makes it 53-0. No votes by the Board to go against any Trump supporters. What are the odds? I guess Trump is just lucky.
ICYMI: FCS Stephen F. Austin got housed by J'ville St 42-17 and LA Tech 52-17. The solution? Play NAIA Warner and their terrible secondary. SFA won 98-0.
The payday game process rolls downhill level to level. I understand the economics issues, but it often does more harm than good, unless your are involved with the revenue black hole program that ceases to exist without it.

We used to play paddle tennis as kids up at the Lair every summer, tho I’ve never played pickleball...wondering what the difference is...
paddle tennis (as i understand it) is on a raised platform so it is good for snowmelt in the northeast. also, i think the ball can bounce off the nets and still be in play, sort of like racquetball
Basically same but a pickleball is like a wiffle ball
My aunt, who has never done any thing sort of physical activity in her life, all of a sudden at her retirement community plays pickleball 3 days a week.
Well, that's kinda odd.
When I was a kid, my next door neighbors were this elderly lesbian couple. They were chain smokers but they loved pickleball and would let my brothers and I play on the court in their yard whenever we wanted. Such a fun game! If my yard was bigger I would totally get a court put in
honestly it's been years since I've heard anything about pickleball (I've never played it) and all of a sudden it's everywhere.
my theory is that they used the small nets to teach kids and the coaches decided to invent a sport for adults who cant otherwise run around
My theory is that they wanted quasi tennis that could fit into smaller spaces, like suburban backyards. I grew up with a Pickleball court.
I think a mutual friend of HSB and myself had a pickleball court in his backyard. And I've seen from faceypages that another mutual friend goes to the nationals for old guys our age.
i dont think i ever played pickleball on that court. probably just volleyball and basketball.
there were an incomprehensible number of lines on that court!
I thought you and I played there with them once or twice.

I only have one sibling, so I guess she wins by default.
i have a favorite sister-in-law (1 of 2) that i get along w/ particularly well. we have driven long distances together, gone on backpacking and photography trips, talked late into the night about extra-terrestrial life, gotten drunk countless times, etc.

DOESN'T COUNT!
I saw it with my own eyes, it counts.
Maris also hit 61 HRs in 31 more ABs than Judge. Or so I heard a Bay Area sportscaster say.
The frequency of intentional walks has changed dramatically in the interim.

I've been trying to catch as many of his ABs as possible and got to see this one. Chilling to watch. Looking forward to #62. It's cool that Maris Jr. has been following him around.
Same. I'm glad it was airing live on MLB Network last night. And they'll be on MASN all weekend since they're playing the O's.
Pretty amazing that he got within 12 of the home run record. Good for him!
I don’t really get all the excitement at all and just feel like it’s an attempt by MLB to marginalize Bonds and white wash the sport further.
I think they're trying to marginalize the steroid generation, not Bonds specifically. Bonds, Sosa, McGwire.
I think there are enough witnesses, and enough of them on tape, to confirm all those balls actually sailed out of the ball park, whether anyone at MLB likes it or not.
So you're OK with the Asstrisks championship in 2017?
You think steroid use is entirely overblown, then?
I'm not looking to have an argument. I'm just wanting to understand your perspective.
I agree with this. Related but out of the blue - Bud Selig was easily the worst Commissioner of Major League Baseball. And that's saying a lot since it also includes the like of Bowie Kuhn!
It's fine to have excitement. It's just that Judge is going for the AMERICAN LEAGUE record, not the Major League one.
I had been watching his last 4 or 5 games but didn't watch last night. Heard in the middle of the game that he hadn't hit one and didn't turn it on. He can thank me.

Dodgers break record behind Urias’ dominant performance
https://www.truebluela.com/2022/9/28/23378150/dodgers-break-record-urias-dominant-performance
They’ve done it folks. The 2022 Dodgers have put together the strongest regular season in franchise history, winning their 107th game of the regular season. Behind yet another dominant performance from Julio Urias, the Dodgers escaped with a 1-0 extra-inning victory.
There was one very common theme in this game; the Dodgers struggled mightily with runners in scoring position, and it began in the very first inning. Mookie Betts led off the game with a double before advancing to third base on an error and found himself stuck on third with two outs and the bases loaded after walks to Freddie Freeman and Max Muncy. Joe Musgrove struck out Joey Gallo to escape the early jam. Three runners stranded.
After stranding two more runners in the second, the Dodgers next best opportunity to get on the scoreboard came in the fifth inning. Mookie led off the inning with his second hit of the game, and once again, with two outs and the bases loaded following a walk to Freeman and a Muncy hit by pitch, Gallo found himself at the plate with the bases loaded.
Are Gallo and Kimbrel going to make the postseason roster?
If Kimbrel does, it'll be in a non-high leverage situation.
Gallo still plays good D but man he strikes out a lot. Which is what he did with the Yankees. Without Gallo, the OFs are Klay's brother, CT3, Bellinger, and Betts. IF are JT, TT, Muncy, FF, Lux, Hanser. Will Smith and Barnes catching. so that's 12 which I think leaves one more spot. Not sure there is another position player they'd bring up to replace him.
Looks like they're trying to see if Vargas can make the move in the last week. I guess it's his offense vs Gallo's defense and experience.
Starters: Urias, Kershaw .. . Anderson and maybe Heany or May?
Bullpen: Chris Martin R, Graterol R (Set-up), Vesia L (Closer?), Phillips R, Kahnle R, Phillips R, Price L (Long), Almonte R
So remaining spot would be Kimbrel Grove or Ferguson and Ferguson's another leftie.
You have Phillips twice.
I don't think they'll do a "defined" closer. They'll have Philips be the most high leverage situation, then match up and work from there.
I think Heaney could end up being a long man out of the bullpen.
Even though Ferguson struggled his last couple, I think he'll be there.
Don't think May will be ready.
Maybe piggyback Gonsolin and Heaney, if Catman is ready.
Vesia can pitch effectively to both R and L so I think they don't care as much about handedness with him.
I don't think Treinan will be in the NLDS.
Which probably means Kimbrel is there because I don't think they bring up Grove or Peipot.

https://twitter.com/UnnecRoughness/status/1575313592752250881

Not that that consideration was a consideration when Cal did their stadium project. (The ton of money for an empty stadium part, not the looks part.)
That was not in consideration because the *reduced* capacity of Cal memorial v2.0 was *less* than what Cal was drawing during the height of the Tedford era. The clear expectation was that Cal would continue to draw crowds in excess of 60K after the renovated stadium debuted.
Too bad it didn't happen.
