Good morning, Whitewater
The National Weather Service — a government agency that predicts flexibly — calls for a slight chance of thunderstorms and 83 degrees. The Farmers’ Almanac, a private publication that predicts a year in advance, calls for hot weather, followed by thunderstorms. In July, that’s an easy call to make.
In Whitewater today, there will be a meeting of the Trippe/Cravath Lakes Committee at 4:30 p.m., and of our Planning Commission at 6 p.m.
Here is the Planning Commission agenda:

In Wisconsin History today, a war and peace juxtaposition. In 1832, Colonel Henry Dodge and his command confronted Black Hawk near the Wisconsin River, outside present-day Sauk City. The engagement was indecisive. Almost a century later, in 1921, General Billy Mitchell proved that air power could be devastating against naval vessels. On the peace side of the divide, in 1972, comedian George Carlin performed a sketch using his performing his “Seven Words You Can’t Say,” and was arrested at Summerfest.
