YOUR NATIONAL WEATHER
JULY 2012
1st Day
July began it's first day with a large midwest storm which logged in numerial damages of properties, trees and overwhelming power outages. At least 3 million homes, businessess were zapped to powerless and into nights of heatwaves and darkness! Hardist hit areas were Washington D.C., suburbs in Virginia, Maryland and West Virginia. Damages were as servere in some areas with copy-cat damages of those of a hurricane. In addition, since the large populated areas are without power increases health hazards due to high degree temperatures in the 100 degrees. There were several fatalities in Virginia and New Jersey and Maryland as well as in Washington, Ohio and Kentucky. Weather experts said the storm was a "derecho" which is a straight-line wind storm that sweeps over a large area at with high speed winds. Restoration of power will progress slowly as power crews are requesting aids to it's millions of customers across those states. Many may have to wait up to a week; or perhaps longer before total power is restored.
They've been zapped!
Zap! up prayers for the victims and their recovery!

Usually diasters have productivities to follow. I would think there may be employment increases to follow however, in my opinion it will be a slow recovery.
