The CGI in the trailer has the internet talking. The consensus seems to be that it's ... not good. I don't have strong feelings about the CGI, but I also know that no Disney+ show will top "WandaVision" for me.
Why southwestern Utah is one of the most at-risk regions in the country for wildfires
Unprecedented growth combined with already fire-prone terrain in southwestern Utah makes the region one of the highest risk areas for wildfires.
According to a new report from the nonprofit research group First Street Foundation:
At least 93% of the properties in Washington County have at least a 6% chance of experiencing a wildfire in the next 30 years.
An estimated 94,900 properties in Washington county have a 6% chance of experiencing a wildfire in 30 years, compared to 77,000 in Utah County, 35,100 in Salt Lake County, 25,300 in Iron County and 21,500 in Tooele County.

What happened: Utah Sen. Mitt Romney chided one fellow Republican who plans to vote no on a $40 billion Ukraine aid package because he believes the federal government should be paying attention to American interests.
"Well, we can walk and chew gum at the same time," Romney said in a video released Wednesday. "And it is very much in the best interests of Americans to see Ukraine succeed and Russia fail."
Why Romney supports the Ukraine aid:
Spending $20 billion — about 2% of U.S. military funding — to help Ukraine defeat and weaken Russia is one of the “smartest and most economic investments” the country could make, Romney said.
Romney said the U.S. should make sure Ukraine spends the money wisely, but that shouldn’t be an excuse to continue to delay the aid.
He said he will vote for the bill because it’s in the U.S.’s interest and the right thing to do.
