The tight U.S. labor market is a nationwide story, but variations across states at the end of 2022 appear to have been caused primarily by whether job openings were rising or falling. Read the analysis: ow.ly/hR0F50NMcCy

Applications for New Businesses rise in March 2023 for both likely new employers and new nonemployers. 2nd highest March on record (highest March 2021). March 2023 50% higher than March 2019.

Sometimes we forget, but it was a paper! This month marks 95 years of the publication of the Cobb-Douglas production function, AER March 1928, by Charles Cobb and Paul Douglas, Cobb and Douglas (1928). They have this beautiful graph comparing observations and predictions

Keynes once said: "Anything we can actually do, we can afford." I have always found this quote curious. Can this really be true? Well, turns out in an OLG-NK or HANK model it can! Angeletos, Lian, and @ChristianKWolf show this in a striking new paper: drive.google.com/file/d/1W78oHL…

@NWSCaribou How is Bangor looking?

NWS Caribou has received 66.4 inches of snow so far this season and the current snow depth is 21 inches.

@MeteoroloJess How about Bangor area?

Snow totals much higher for coastal spots now. Thinking around 6-10”! ❄️❄️❄️

@PineTreeWeather Hey Mike on the ground it looks like it fulled@in about 20mins ago in Orono. Snowing again

The Bangor snow hole strikes again. 🤦🏼‍♂️

If you want to take the road less traveled, here's a map for you. #citylabarchive trib.al/SrGk37x

@URESG76 I am so sorry to hear this. I loved having a beer at conferences with Jack and he was always so supportive.

I am very sad to report the death of Professor John Parr, Bartlett UCL and formerly University of Glasgow He was an excellent academic in the field of regional science and regional studies who was a very good friend and mentor to many of us. A gentleman scholar he will be missed

In addition, tightness not only raises wages, it actually increases competition in the labor market by strengthening the job ladder, whereby workers climb out of poorly-paid to better-paid jobs.

New in JRS from @zchenosu and Laurie Schintler: "Rediscovering Regional Science: Positioning the Field's Evolving Location in Science and Society", a penetrating retrospective and prospective look at the field. Check it out.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/abs/10.111…

@PineTreeWeather What are your thoughts further out Mike? I know the longer range forecasts are tricky but is there the risk winter could really crank up after this warm spell?

🔥 #Torchanuary It's a fair bet at this point that record warm lows and record highs will be set in the northeast & eastern Canada next week. Temps stay up until Thursday. #MEwx #atlstorm #qcstorm

Child care is a significant expense for many families. A model examining costs and household incomes found that child care was least affordable in Vermont and Maine, and most affordable in Utah and Georgia in 2019 ow.ly/kcAf50MbCXR

@NWSCaribou Is Bangor region over the worst of it? Still some strong gusts occurring

We are still getting some strong wind gusts across the area. Here at the office we are gusting to 47mph right now. This will continue to cause some tree damage from weakened branches and trees. #MEwx #Maine

@PineTreeWeather we topped out at 52.1f. Temps are now starting to fall fast.. 48.7f. BARO now rising 29.91

@PineTreeWeather currently 48.2f with BARO 28.73 around Bangor. Still raining heavy. When do you think the winds might ease off for this area?
