Little known farts

Adults fart about 14 times a day.

How much squeezing cheese is normal?
Typically, adults produce about two pints of gas each day, which sneaks—or leaks—out via an average of 14 farts a day.
If that number seems low to you, don't worry.
It's apparently perfectly normal to pass gas up to 21 times a day.​

That CAN'T be right. Oklahoma had NO TORNADOES in 2021? How is that possible?

There is a spot in BCN, deep in the mountain range area, where temperatures never reach the 21ºC/70ºF mark so distinctive of summer nights in BCN: this year it has never risen above 66ºF.
It is the place often registering the lowest ones during deep winter.

BTW, there are over 100 so-called "tropical nights" (never going below 20-21ºC) every year in BCN.

The National Weather Service shows 39 Oklahoma tornadoes in 2020 and 25 through July of 2021 (August and September haven't been posted yet).

The resident British population in BCN has grown over 10% during the past year, and has more than doubled along the past decade, currently around 10,086 people.

About the Italian one, it has boomed around 82% since 2012, now constituting, by far, the largest non-Spaniard group of citizens, 41,759.

Foreigners currently constitute 22.4% of the population of BCN, hailing from 179 countries.

I wonder how many of those Brits are fleeing the Brexit mess?
