Happy National Puppy Day! Today is also the start of Ramadan, a holy month for Muslims. Ramadan Mubarak (Blessed Ramadan)! Anyway, here's what's been happening lately.
California is yet again in big trouble with weather. In fact, it was just a month or two ago that Californians were desperately wishing for rain, and their wishes came true, but not in a good way. The state's 12th atmospheric river event is pummeling the area now, spawning a rare tornado east of Los Angeles that injured one, damaged at least 17 buildings, and had sustained winds of up to 110 mph, which is the first tornado of that scale to hit the area since 1983! Some strong winds from the so-called 'bomb cyclone' also slammed the Bay Area near San Francisco, killing five more people as power lines and trees were knocked down.
Also, there was another mass shooting today in the US, and this time it was in Denver, Colorado. A 17-year-old suspect arrived at a school in the early morning, where the school guards conduct a daily pat-down before the students are allowed to enter the building. During the suspect's pat-down, the guards retrieved a handgun, and he then took the gun and fired shots in front of the building, two of them hitting administrators. Thankfully, no one was killed, and the suspect was found dead in the woods later on.
