About me


I'm Brendan Loy, a 26-year-old graduate of USC and Notre Dame now living and working in Knoxville, Tennessee. My wife Becky and I are brand-new parents of a beautiful baby girl, born on New Year's Eve.

I'm a big-time sports fan, a politics, media & law junkie, an astronomy buff, a weather nerd, an Apple aficionado, a Lord of the Rings and Harry Potter fanatic, and an all-around dork. My blog is best-known for its coverage of Hurricane Katrina, but I blog about anything and everything that interests me.

Whahuh? I don't understand that post at all. Just because soldiers wear body armor making it feel like 145, doesn't mean that the temperature is 145. Fair point on the rivers, though.

If you put a thermometer in the sun, over blacktop, in NYC, it'll get over 130F also. But the shade temperature may not exceed 98.

Iraq most likely does not get much above 120.
