Hurricane Michael coming ashore soon

For the latest advisory on this big storm, see here.  General information and graphics will be found at this site.  Dangerous flooding from the storm surge is expected. Move inland immediately.

But for crazy surfers, the storm brings crazy waves.  Be careful.

Climographs and Recreation Geography

We're doing climatology in physical geography this week. I thought I'd share this great resource from the National Geographic Society on climographs, the method of graphically displaying climate data.

I will always remember my climatology class at Towson State University where we were given the data (temperature and precipitation) and we had to tell where in the world the data represented.

Boy, it was a tough class.
