Brunhilda of Austrasia (c. 543-613) was a Visigothic princess who married into the Merovingian dynasty of the Franks, becoming the queen consort of the eastern kingdom of Austrasia. Following the brutal death of her sister due to a plot by Queen Fredegund in Neustria, Brunhilda used her position to scheme and accumulate power to outmaneuver her rival. The feud would expand into proxy wars across the Frankish realm.
AccuWeather’s assessment of the change in tornado activity between 1950-1984 and 1985-2019

Lead Long-Range Meteorologist Paul Pastelok attributed tornadoes
becoming more frequent to the east of Tornado Alley due to the lack of
moisture in the original Tornado Alley, which can be traced back to the 20-year mega-drought gripping much of the Southwest.
When are they gonna stop calling this shit a “drought” and start calling it what it is: irreversible desertification?
if desertificiation in the saraha can be reversed, i think it can be reversed in the great plains, which famously already went thru the dust bowl, which we know also wasn’t permanent. put an end to expansive and resource intensive monocultures and cattle grazing and desertification could probably not only stop, but recede. if the land was back it probably wouldn’t have even started.
