Links will not appear in more than two categories (excluding the very first category). I have also added two more 'Daily Water Newsletters' to increase coverage. These are the Midcontinent US Water News Daily (#MCUSwater) and the Southeast US Water News Daily (#SEUSwater). The former samples news media within 500 miles of Kansas City, KS and the latter within Knoxville, TN). With the other seven dailies this affords pretty good daily coverage for the USA.

Today's Tune - 14 August 2023. Gonna be another scorcher in Corvallis today - maybe 105 degrees! Have to be prepared. From 1966 Lovin' Spoonful 'Summer In The City'. First heard this on Cape Cod - hot 'n humid! https://youtu.be/RYbtpHR6-L4 #aquadocaudio
Today's Tune - 13 August 2023. It's supposed to be 100 degrees in Corvallis today so I need something cool. Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers 'They Call Me The Breeze' (by J.J. Cale). Great riffs by Mike Campbell (guitar) & Benmont Tench (piano). https://youtu.be/Yc-MA8baAHA #aquadocaudio
Today's Tune - 12 August 2023. Dobie Gray's 1965 hit: 'The In Crowd'. I did not join this group until very recently - couldn't get the hang of 'talkin' trash' till 2019. Nice dancers... https://youtu.be/nmU7Z1AXsss #aquadocaudio
