Snow = Disaster?
I know Aroostook County has received a lot of snow this year, but is it really a "disaster area?"
GOV. JOHN BALDACCI WANTS the federal government to declare a disaster in Aroostook County following the late March blizzard that capped a season of record snowfall.Maybe we should wait until some major damage is actually done before we start throwing federal money at the problem.The blizzard of March 20 pushed Caribou's seasonal snowfall to 192 inches of snow, breaking the previous record of 181 inches in 1955. More snow is predicted for this weekend.

I did a quick analysis of Maine's FEMA history (http://www.fema.gov/news/disasters_state.fema?id=23). Of 31 declared major emergencies, 25 (81%) involved flooding. Of these 25 flood disasters, 11 (44%) came in April and May, 264% more than should be expected in a two-month period. Something tells me Baldacci should wait until all this melts to bother the Feds.

On the other hand, a bit of dynamite at the right time and place to break up an ice jam or two, and a few sandbags at vulnerable stretches of riverbanks, might actually save more money than they cost.

Congratulations on having one of the most sophisticated blogs Ive come across in some time! Its just incredible how much you can take away from something simply because of how visually beautiful it is. Youve put together a great blog space --great graphics, videos, layout. This is definitely a must-see blog!

Slublog: Snow = Disaster? was a quality post. I might like to write like this too - taking time and actual effort to make a very good article... however what can I say... I postpone alot and by no means seem to get something done.

The beauty of these blogging engines and CMS platforms is the lack of limitations and ease of manipulation that allows developers to implement rich content and 'skin' the site in such a way that with very little effort one would never notice what it is making the site tick all without limiting content and effectiveness.
Posted by: vigrx at November 13, 2010 12:45 AM
I was wondering if you ever considered changing the layout of your blog? Its very well written; I love what youve got to say. But maybe you could a little more in the way of content so people could connect with it better. Youve got an awful lot of text for only having one or two images. Maybe you could space it out better?
