"No," I said, "this is a cloak. Capes are what superheroes wear. Or sword fighters."

"Well, actually," the man said, drawing his rapier and swirling his #cape around his other hand, "I know that."

CAPE is over 1600 J/kg already, east of Tacoma, and over 1000 all the way up to Seattle. It’s almost 1900 in SE WA/NE OR.

(#CAPE = Convective Available Potential Energy. 1000 is enough to generate supercells/rotating thunderstorms.)

I should probably go home and charge my generator…

"The trigger for this report was the discovery by Laurie Adamson, a physician with #CAPE, that her kid in elementary school was bringing home materials branded by #FortisBC. She was alarmed. What's a gas company doing in my children's backpack? What are they doing in the classroom?"
