Two New Vocabulary Words!

 



#90 October 24:  Another new vocabulary word:  prorogation  The new House Speaker made a prorogation address. This is the time between sessions of a parliament or legislature.  The address would mark the end of one session and the beginning of another.  11/30

#94  October 28: Another new vocabulary word:  superfog.  On Monday a “super fog” caused a 25+ car pileup on I 55 out of New Orleans resulting in several deaths.  How does a super fog differ from the fog we love to watch in our valley at Park’s Peak along the Broad River?  According to today’s paper, a super fog is a regular fog plus smoke.  In New Orleans, the fog combined with bog fires in the Bayou Sauvage.  The National Weather Service reports that super fogs can even occur on January 1 or July 5, after celebratory fireworks!  10/30/2023
