3D-printed weather stations could enable more science for less money -- ScienceDaily
Across the United States, weather stations made up of instruments and sensors monitor the conditions that produce our local forecasts, like air temperature, wind speed and precipitation.

Commercial weather stations can cost thousands of dollars, limiting both their availability and thus the amount of climate data that can be collected.

Could these inexpensive, homegrown versions perform as well as their pricier counterparts?
With $1M in federal aid, Mountain View pours more money into renter relief | News | Mountain View
The unanimous decision is the latest round of cash to be pumped into the city's COVID-19 relief effort, and is a direct result of $1 million in CARES Act funding awarded to the city.

County officials and nonprofit leaders have referred to the problem as an eviction time bomb waiting to go off, as tens of thousands of tenants fall behind on rental payments.
Industry review: in HBO's drama, true equality comes from money - The Verge

As with any new President, Joe Biden will have his work cut out for him when he takes the oath of office in January. And while his "build back better" plans are already laid out, it's yet to be seen how much of an impact his administration can actually make on your finances.
The COVID-19 pandemic's not behind us, so the recovery will be slow, which Biden has been clear about.
