KEY WEST LOU / CLIMATE SCIENTISTS’ WORST FEARS HAVE ARRIVED

The fears of climate scientists are here. Their dire predictions coming true. On a too frequent basis.

Maui and Southern California the most recent.

California has been hit with a double whammy. The anticipated flooding in Southern California now a fact. Plus a surprise 5.1 magnitude earthquake struck Ojai, California sunday afternoon.

Rain that already fell estimated as a “year’s worth” in 24 hours. Flooding catastrophic and life threatening.

Global warming caused weather events have become too much and too frequent. What next? Hurricanes keep threatening the Keys. Supposedly bad times ahead. Soon. All we can do is hope not. Hurricane winds are fickle. They deviate. Key Westers know that from experience.

Barbie’s run as the #1 box office movie has ended after 4 weeks. Replaced by the new movie Blue Beetle.

Mortgage rates have hit 7.31 percent. The highest in 21 years. On top of which median home sale prices are trending upward. Something I cannot understand. If interest rates are astronomically high, people will not be buying homes. Ergo, house prices should fall. So far, they have not.

The former President in home hospice and the former first lady into dementia.

Jimmy and Rosalynn Carter are entering their “final chapter” together reported their grandson Josh saturday. They “are still holding hands…..it’s just amazing.”

Josh added, “They’ve experienced everything you can together. I think the beautiful thing is that they are still together.” Last month, the Carters celebrated their 77th wedding anniversary.

Trump is being given kid glove treatment in his arrest proceedings. Makes the justice system appear unequal. I can see a former Presidnet getting some leeway/indulgence. However, not one such as Trump who has abused our Nation and its democracy in every sense. He deserves no special attention.

Another great golf weekend! Viktor Hoveland won the BMW Championship. Made 7 birdies on the back 9 in his final round. Shot a 28. Set a new course record of 61. Took home $3.6 million for his exceptional win.

I’m going to the movies this afternoon to see Oppenheimer at the Tropic Cinema.

Enjoy your day!
