Ohio has experienced two tornado episodes this year, and it’s only mid-March. I believe all the confirmed tornadoes were logged on the National Weather Service’s Damage Assessment Toolkit, which shows the state had 10 confirmed tornadoes up through March 13. All but one of those happened on Feb. 28. However, the severe storms the afternoon […]
Spring weather is here… not that we had much of a winter. Columbus hit 70 degrees for the first time this season on Monday, a little ahead of the average date of March 9 (based on the 1991-2020 climate normals). Last year, we already reached 70 degrees in the second week of February. The first

It’s hosted by Jason Bateman, Sean Hayes, and Will Arnett. The premise is that one of them invites a guest, who is a mystery to the other two
I’m a day late but not a dollar short this week. Ideally, I’d write these on Fridays, which are my Saturdays, but I’ve been keeping myself occupied with more practical things those days. I can’t imagine that’ll change in the more-time direction anytime soon since we have our move to Columbus coming in early July.
My wife and I, like many, deal with occasional bouts of imposter syndrome. It’s something we talk about not infrequently, and it recently led to a short discussion on how movement through one’s career can evolve from getting paid for output to getting paid for knowledge.
