No link?

This is the type of writing I would rip my students on. The article makes it sound as though the power for the town came from the ice cream truck and the demise of the truck and power service are somehow connected rather than the incident being coincidental. I’m guessing the tree that smashed the truck took out a power line but a reader should not have to guess. Also, condition of the truck driver/operator and his young patrons might have been interesting. Were they crushed, electrocuted?

For sanity’s sake I hope the ice cream truck music isn’t stuck on Play.

Some sort of wind event blew through southern Michigan last night. I was in Michigan last night, east of Kalamazoo, when the storm blew through. The tornado warning sirens started at about 10:15.

I also happened to be in Texas last month, 50 miles from the eye of Harvey, when Harvey stalled over Victoria, Texas. We have the same wind speed devices at both locations. The indicated wind speed last night was HIGTHER when the storm blew through, than it was in Texas during Harvey.

Did the ice cream truck supply electricity? I guess the utility truck supply ice cream, then??
