U.S. Winds Map

Love this map of winds.  The actual map is animated showing winds spiraling down into central Pennsylvania where Sandy is now.



What's amazing is that this storm in central PA is influencing wind speeds and directions from Maine to Minnesota to Georgia!

As soon as this clears out, people like me will be incorporating Sandy into our curriculum.  Here's a good resource that just came over the email.

Why am I failing?

Not posting much lately.  Totally stressed out at work.

I had to laugh at this video.  Believe it or not, students will say things EXACTLY like this!
