Commuter buses can ride free in the #I77 toll lanes north of #CLT. That was supposed to help speed bus trips to and from uptown. But 6 weeks after the northern section of the lanes opened, express buses still aren't using them. I talked with CATS CEO John Lewis about the holdup and when they'll start using the lanes, on @wfae and WFAE.org #commuting #tolls #i77express

Tonight's full #moon rises above the trees behind 231 South St. Had to wait and watch while it climbed high enough for these shots, made with my Droid Moto Hasselblad mod. There's a bit of haze, which gives #Luna an unusual glow. #skyshow @earthskyscience #CLT #DavidsonNC

What if we do nothing to fight #climatechange ? A new report from the Union of Concerned Scientists says the number of dangerously hot days will rise sharply. This map from that report shows the annual number of days when the combination of heat and humidity will make it feel like more than 100 degrees at the end of the century - if we do nothing. (Red=more than 100 days a year) It's a side effect of #climatechange and could increase the risk of heat-related illness for children, seniors and people who work outdoors. The report calculates the number of "heat index" days if there's no global action, if there's slow action and if there's rapid action to fight climate change. This image shows the "no action scenario." The Southeastern US would be hit hardest, the report says. More on @wfae and WFAE.org (map: Union of Concerned Scientists)
