"I will title this shot ‘FOREVER WEST’. This may be the setting sun but it deserves equal merit to the iconic CSD sunrise. With South Dakota only 5 miles from my back, looking southwest into the sun from Four Corners lies almost 400 more miles of “Big WONDERFUL WYOMING”. It’s your turn Evanston- show me 400 miles of good ‘ol “BIG WONDERFUL WYOMING” with the rising sun looking northeast. Title it ‘Forever East’. (With your back to Utah)." Four Corners, WY

Today's question to Don Day

Mark James Mullins of Douglas

In regard to your thunderstorm season article, can you reassess the data on a per-capita basis, especially when considering population of the states? It could affect me as I own a hill on my property which I plan a communications tower and likely will have a lightning rod installed when it goes in.

Don Day

FEMA has a good lightning database that takes into account lightning risk, potential property loss, etc. based on population and lightning frequency. Data is available on a county by county basis. Lots and lots of lightning data available here which may help in quest for more lightning information. https://hazards.fema.gov/nri/lightning
