Niños neurodivergentes y tiempo de pantallas

Oct 31, 2024 | childmind.org | Katherine Martinelli |Cynthia Martin |Dave Anderson

Cuando hablamos de pantallas, los expertos tienden a enfatizar el peligro que representan para los niños y la forma en que los padres pueden limitarlas. Pero no todos los niños (ni todo lo que ofrecen las pantallas) son iguales, y hay una conversación creciente sobre el papel positivo que las pantallas pueden tener específicamente para niños neurodivergentes.
October’s forecast: Severe weather is unlikely

Oct 3, 2024 | hometownfocus.us | Dave Anderson

The September tornado around here was fairly big by our northern standards. The Enhanced Fujita Scale goes from EF0 which are those ropey little twisters we get around here to EF5 which are the big town wreckers you get in Tornado Alley in the south. Ours was an EF1 that was 200 yards wide, and was on the ground for about 13 minutes. The storm cluster began with a funnel cloud spotted in the Moose Lake area that evolved to radar indicated tornadoes near Proctor.
September’s forecast: What the end of summer will bring

Aug 30, 2024 | hometownfocus.us | Dave Anderson

I don’t know if I’ve mentioned it in Hometown Focus before, but my parents passed away over the last year. I’ve spent the last eight months cleaning out their house and I have one last load to get out before new owners take over to make new memories. In the second to last load, I found my grandmother’s 1930s Finnish long cross-country skis. She and her twin sister used to make their own outdoor fun in Tower during the Great Depression. I even used them in the early ’80s around the Ely area.
The weather outlook for July:

Jun 28, 2024 | hometownfocus.us | Dave Anderson

I was reading a July 1909 copy of The Virginia Enterprise recently and there was an article about Mars. The science of the time was torn between those who thought the red planet’s “canals” were natural features and those who thought they were proof of life up there. Today, science, of course, is torn between climatologists and meteorologists who look for evidence of climate change being natural or proof of bad environmental habits down here.
Dave’s weather outlook: June should revert to normal after long warm spell

May 31, 2024 | hometownfocus.us | Dave Anderson

Forty-two years later, I still wake up in a sweat every now and then because I dreamt I wasn’t ready for a chemistry exam at VCC. Then I realize I’m now the guy who gives science exams. My Lake Superior College Center for Advanced Aviation students just took their meteorology finals. Now, let’s give nature its mid-term for 2024 so far. Precip has come back so well that we are now running a rain surplus rather than a drought.

May temperatures expected to return to normal

Apr 26, 2024 | hometownfocus.us | Dave Anderson

Dry springs with high fire dangers are not new phenomena for the Mesabi and Vermilion iron ranges. The May 16, 1924, issue of The Ely Miner talks about a couple of campers from Virginia who started a 30-acre forest fire near Isabella thinking their campfire was out. A hundred years later we still have that concern this May. Rain may be sparse this month. Temperatures have exceeded themselves so far in the year 2024. January was 5.9 degrees warmer than normal. February was a whopping 11.9 degrees over.
Will El Niño finally fade in April?

Apr 5, 2024 | hometownfocus.us | Dave Anderson

The popular weather almanacs have been predicting the end of El Niño for months now, but “The Child” keeps popping back with warmer than normal temperatures. This despite the persistent insistence on a cool-down coming. Well, in April, it may finally come true. Just after the first day of official spring, the weather pattern shifted back towards winter. For April, the long-range forecasters this time around are saying the Upper Midwest will average one degree cooler than normal.
¿Cómo puedes ayudar a tu adolescente en un rompimiento amoroso?

Apr 4, 2024 | childmind.org | Karen Cicero |Dave Anderson

Es probable que tú también recuerdes el dolor de un rompimiento amoroso en la adolescencia, sobre todo con alguna persona con la que saliste por un periodo largo y que quizá pensaste que sería “la buena”. Pero cuando tu adolescente atraviesa una experiencia similar, las palabras sabias no parecen venir a la mente en automático. “Fue difícil durante un par de semanas”, me dijo un amigo sobre su hija a quien el novio había terminado por mensaje de texto.
March weather outlook: Super El Nino will eventually slide away

Mar 1, 2024 | hometownfocus.us | Dave Anderson

The long, warm winter is now being called “Super El Nino” because this is one of the strongest El Nino Southern Oscillation events ever recorded since the effect was named by Peruvian sailors in 1892. The pre-Colombian name for the effect, which has been around for centuries, has been lost to history. The term “super” means this year’s El Nino has been making things at least two degrees Celsius warmer than normal. In Fahrenheit, that’s 3.6 degrees.
