    Article on a Florida town that survived Hurricane Ian better than others. The town was deliberately designed and built with various climate change risks in mind. Who knows, over time, we may discover other natural disasters that this town cannot deal with, but for now, this town survived Hurricane Ian relatively unscathed. There may be lessons there for other new towns being planned for hurricane prone areas.

      FIFY.

      The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

        So far, the mildest hurricane season in 30 years.

          Climate change. It does that all the time.
