According to a study that followed more than 280K people in Wales, older adults who received a vaccine against *shingles* were 20% less likely to develop dementia in the seven years that followed vaccination than those who did not receive the vaccine.

The NWS has always been a model of how to be a government weather agency. I hate to think what might happen to our capacity to forecast and respond to hazardous weather events this spring and summer.
National Weather Service employees were encouraged to take early retirements at an all-hands meeting Thursday. The union believes as many as 1,000 could leave in the coming months - out of a workforce of just over 4,000.
