Hiya folks who I may already know,
I'm Meredith or MSJ! In my 20s, AF vet, at undergrad college 5/5 (long story), consuming knowledge about nature and disasters since 2004.
My research focus is TC RI and storm surge.
I shoot everything you see with my phone (SE) or my mom’s Canon EOS 350D.

Bad data science time.
I threw 80+ stats into a kmeans clustering algorithm and asked for 4 groups of college football teams. I then circled the teams in the current playoffs.
Find your team, and let me know how you feel about the teams around them.

New research shows climate risk is already hitting insurance and home values. And that’s only part of the story. Some serious hazards, like saltwater intrusion, often aren’t covered at all -- and aren’t yet priced into housing markets. Column today: susanpcrawford.substack.com/p/new-data-s...
New data shows insurance costs rising and home values sinking as climate risks grow

The "DOGE is gone" articles are clickbait but this one gets it closer to the truth: DOGE is not gone, it just claims to have "no centralized leadership" anymore -- in other words, its leadership is hiding in an attempt to avoid blame.
DOGE no longer has ‘centralized leadership’ under White House tech team, personnel head says
The team that was altered to house DOGE — formerly the U.S. Digital Service — is also still doing its own technology work across agencies.

September 13, 2026 will be the 20th anniversary, in point of fact. For a brief period of time, my cat Ghlaghghee (pronounced "fluffy") was the most famous cat on the Internet. She took it in stride. One of the great moments of the blog era. We should do something for the anniversary. Suggestions?
