Miki Clings To Power After LDP Setback in Japan
Tokyo prime minister Takeo Miki faced a historic Liberal Democratic Party setback as the LDP won 249 seats and 4.78 percent of the vote. Eight independents pledged support to the LDP, but internal splits over the Lockheed bribery probes threatened Miki’s leadership and the party’s future. The result ends LDP’s postwar single party dominance, nudging governance toward greater opposition consultation.

Early Doppler Radar Seen Foreshadowing Tornadoes
NOAA scientists report mesocyclones within thunderstorms detected by Doppler radar may precede tornadoes by over 30 minutes.
