Updated burning man dust storm story. Dust storms aren't uncommon in the desert but this one sounded extreme!

"Things turned for the worst," one burner said. "It became complete white out conditions, but we couldn’t see about 15 feet in front of us." #CAwx

Hurricane Erin went from Category 1 to Category 4 in 15 hours Y'all. That's well beyond our definition of rapid intensification. My update on the hurricane. It may not be done strengthening yet. Where is it going and how strong will it get?

Not that it matters but: the Iran deal did not fail, Trump pulled out; diplomacy did not fail, it was never seriously tried; Israel's strike was not pre-emptive; the killing of Iranian high-command and nuclear scientists is assassination not a "remarkable coup of intelligence".
