Day 74

Of course we're going to get hit by two tropical storms/hurricanes simultaneously - that's SO 2020!  In a year where everything that could go wrong does, and often in the worse way imaginable, it wouldn't be enough for one hurricane to hit the west side of low-lying, flood-prone Louisiana, we also have to have one hit the east side of Louisiana a day later.

Fun!

And while we were all hunkered down watching the Demo Convention, Earth had a near miss with a car-sized asteroid that wasn't spotted by NASA until a mere six hours before it passed.

The asteroid came as close as 1,830 miles to the planet, or one tenth of the distance to the moon. Satellites fly at higher orbits than the track of this asteroid.  It's the closest recorded  near miss Earth has ever had with an asteroid.  

That's all we need in 2020, a terminal extinction event, our own personal Chicxulub.  Somehow, Trump would find a way to make it all about himself.
