Cascade

It's happening slower than I had expected. Or maybe it isn't - every day feels like an entire week and news that dropped yesterday is already outdated and inadequate.

I know that the number of documented cases in the U.S. are an artifact of limited testing. Our tools and reporting criteria make the statistics we use to understand our world. They are always imperfect, especially with new situations. There is so much we don't know.

And yet, here come the confirmed (and presumptive) cases. Oregon now has multiple sources of data in the official reports, and things are moving faster. Schools are now closed until April 28th.

My flurry of cancellations is complete and I'm not sure what I will be doing at work tomorrow.

In order to feel productive I planted basil seeds today.


Here is something for after the storm, although I think most of us are not yet at the worst.
