Extractions: Before real winter made its reappearance in the first full week of January, the Great Lakes region was basking in mid-50 temperatures and setting records in the process. Some of that very warm and moist air had its origins in the tropics and was at least indirectly related to abnormally warm ocean water in the eastern Pacific, the hallmark of an El Nino pattern. Much of the Gulf Coast has seen abnormally heavy rains, including some flooding. Temperatures have been well above normal in the northern Great Plains. The California coast was expected to be pounded with a series of storms but has had just one major outbreak of bad weather in December. Predictions of beach erosion, landslides and massive flooding are so far not coming to pass. Other parts of the world are showing stronger evidence of El Nino's darker side. Drought has struck portions of southeast Asia and the Philippines, which is having negative impacts on agriculture there. Sections of South America are seeing wetter than normal conditions while drought is developing in parts of South Africa.

Extractions: Governor George E. Pataki today announced the release of more than $1.7 million in federal and state public assistance funding to 71 municipalities and entities as part of the state's continuing recovery effort from January's ice storm and massive flooding. "These funds represent our continuing commitment to helping all communities in the North Country recover from one of the worst natural disasters of this century," Governor Pataki said. "New Yorkers have shown their resiliency and determination to return to their normal way of life after this ice storm and flooding. These funds will go a long way in helping effect that recovery." At its peak, more than 320,000 people were without electricity in January as a result of the ice storm that brought down trees, power lines and blocked roads in the counties of Jefferson, St. Lawrence, Lewis, Essex, Franklin and Clinton. Under the federal disaster declaration, those counties are eligible for individual and public disaster assistance as well as hazard mitigation funds. The payments announced today can be used to make repairs to damaged public buildings and infrastructure such as roads and bridges as well as to reimburse municipalities for the emergency response efforts taken during the disaster. The public assistance funds for damage incurred are based on damage survey reports conducted by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA).

Extractions: Main I returned from my previously mentioned travels late Friday evening, just before Atlanta's weather turned icy. Like David, I don't mind (and sometimes even enjoy) the cold weather , but ice storms are not fun. I didn't have any good reason to brave the icy roads (or more precisely Atlanta's notoriously bad drivers trying to navigate icy roads), so I've been more or less trapped in my apartment with the few meager DVDs I could scavenge from a nearby blue-and-yellow family-friendly videostore. Because my electricty was out for two or three hours last night, I didn't even get to watch these films until fairly late, instead reading Hunter S. Thompson's latest, which I'd picked up for some "light" airplane reading, by candlelight. After a stressful but exciting week, which I may describe later, I was not in the mood for anything heavy, leading to an unintentional double dose of Christina Applegate films, the mildly entertaining Will Ferrell vehicle, Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy , and rumored Sundance fave, Employee of the Month . I'll skip the Anchorman review for now, given that most people have probably already formed an opinion of the Will Ferrell-Vince Vaughan-unsuspecting blond actress genre.

Extractions: COUNTY OFFICES TOPICS OF INTEREST RESOURCES PUBLICATIONS ... UMAINE Recovery of Ice-Storm Damaged Trees, Everyone knows the now infamous story of the ice storm of 1998. For the thousands of Maine people who experienced the storm firsthand, the descriptions of the extensive damage to trees in landscape and forest settings need no repeating. But, as certain as the severe winter weather will yield eventually to spring, the task of cleaning up the downed trees and branches will shift to attending more closely to the damaged surviving trees. Although the methods used to help trees recover from the damage are rather limited, these few simple procedures, when applied correctly, can make a significant difference in tree health. Damage Classes The excessive icing from the storm resulted in several different kinds of damage to trees, and each damage category has specific, long-term consequences to tree health. The first and most severe damage occurs when the main stem, or central trunk of the injured tree, splits off or is broken. Larger, mature trees are most susceptible to this damage. Strength of the remaining stem is reduced immediately. In addition, research has shown that wood decay has a high probability of developing from injuries (areas of the stem where the bark has been removed and the wood exposed) of a size greater than 50 square inches. When secondary stems of multiple-stemmed trees are split away from the main stem, decay will almost certainly occur over time. The decay will further reduce stem strength and result in the tree becoming a potential hazard, especially when in a landscape setting.
