School Doors and Printing Presses

One day, two ribbon cuttings: the Weather School opened and this Journal printed its first page.

By the Weather Rock Aug 6

The Weather School hub page, framed with the Journalist Weather Rock badge.

Two doors opened today. The Weather School: a complete weather education, free forever, grounded in National Weather Service science and checked twice, for every classroom, homeschool, and curious human on Earth. And this Journal: tales, field reports, forecast receipts, and plain-English explainers, kept by yours truly.

The rule for both is the same rule I forecast by: say it plainly, label what is a story and what is a fact, and show the receipts when receipts exist.
