Frontier Airlines has significantly modified its outstanding order for Airbus aircraft, as flagged by @IshrionA. I don’t think this will surprise anyone…. Ultra low cost carrier Frontier Airlines operates a fleet consisting exclusively of Airbus A320-family aircraft. Back before the pandemic, the airline had huge growth plans, given that ultra low cost carriers were performing well. However, the airline has been struggling with profitability in recent years, and has now changed up its outstanding orders.

Jacksonville Today

Gov. Ron DeSantis has issued a state of emergency in Northeast Florida and across much of the state as a tropical system appears almost certain to develop. The National Hurricane Center said Friday morning that a tropical wave has a 90% chance of developing into at least a tropical depression over the next seven days. Most models show it moving into the Gulf of Mexico and then coming ashore and crossing the state, possibly moving over Northeast Florida.

That is exactly what is happening, she said.

The mantis shrimp is one tough customer.

And, they're right at home here in South Carolina.

No, pallet shelters for people experiencing homelessness don’t fold into caskets. It’s a question a reader posed one of the first times I wrote about pallet shelters. I find the pallet shelters to be more palatable than ice fishing tents. The Colorado Village Collaborative operates both micro-communities and the so-called Safe Outdoor Spaces with the tents. We all learned the tents are not safe when a fire roared through a CVC Safe Outdoor Space, destroying the compound quickly. Officials never disclosed a cause of the fire.
