Fascinating breakdown of the data by @andyblarsen:

Local dust storms — or smaller "dust events" — whip particles from the Great Salt Lake dry lakebed into the air. How often does that happen, and how is tracking changing? sltrib.com/news/2026/07/2…

You can’t just let Biebs go acoustic during your halftime show!

Update: they regained it

Okay, jeez France, have some self respect

this legit might end the 3rd place game forever

Tito’s vodka remains the top-seller in terms of revenue, but there are some surprising purchases after that. sltrib.com/news/2026/07/1…

@cory_ore Agreed, I read this thread, which is why I looked at how the readings here changed compared to other stations and weather balloon readings

@andyblarsen x.com/scotchipman/st…

When temperature readings in Salt Lake City reached an all-time high on Sunday of 109 degrees, some cried foul, saying that changes at the station itself caused the record. I figured I'd look at the data: Have readings at SLC changed? (link in reply)

Me, noticing

@realsaltlake @Intermountain hi pals is kickoff right at 7:30 or at 7:45ish like typical?

Kicking things off with these XI #RSLvBUR | @Intermountain

Both Platner and El-Sayed are Posters™. Even their IRL statements sound like Reddit posts. JD Vance is obviously a Poster too. We're going to have the First Poster President soon.

One has to wonder if England's players should test themselves in MLS the way Messi has. Perhaps then they wouldn't choke.

The drop off between Messi delivering from the flanks and Konsa...

Only 3 minutes first half stoppage for the hydration break is realllly lame from Ismail Elfath, who has taken 5 minutes up himself to chat with and meanmug at the players

For 1.5 seconds there I thought Messi was going to Maradona again

@Ice_Landic RSL is winning the cup in 2069, let’s goooooo (shoutout to the two people here who will read this tweet and understand it)

Los que estéis por aquí, acordaos de fichar a Rafael Almeida, que es como el Bitcoin en 2010.

@TheCougChron @sltrib @UVU it’s a New York Times article ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Today @sltrib ran an article about plans to create a memorial for Charlie Kirk at @UVU. They spent 6 paragraphs explaining numerous perspectives on why there shouldn't be a memorial, while giving two brief sentences to a single student in favor without letting her explain why. They continued the custom of leftist legacy media taking Charlie Kirk's words out of context. And they interviewed the student president of SDS, a group we recently exposed as a central culprit in spreading violent extremist rhetoric on campus, the same group who led an aggressive campaign earlier this year to cancel Dave's Hot Chicken for helping TPUSA's UVU chapter fundraise. Just in case you needed a reminder that the Salt Lake Tribune is a propaganda outlet for radical progressives.

Eight months ago, I was pretty certain my time in news was over. Today, though, was my first day as sports editor at The Salt Lake Tribune. Life can be fun.
