Click on the post for an article in todays CapTimes by a UW prof that reviews the current extremes in temperature and precipitation and weather and what that means for planning, zoning, and development.
Communities and individuals are in denial in the face of this weather catastrophe. This is normal. However, as recently as a week ago there were comments that despite the GM situation and the flooding, the planning process for Janesville would proceed-----Rock Net Roots had an article protesting that GM must be considered. Now, the article says that the weather and flooding has to be considered. The old data does not predict the future.
The quiet statement in the article that this has ramifications for zoning and development is an understatement.
I hope to have another metrerologist weigh in on specifics of the weather data. Stay tuned.
