Good afternoon,
In one of the weirdest and most eventful months on record for Delaware, a blend of destructive weather and the presidential nomination of Joe Biden dominated the list of most-read stories in Delaware Business Now.
In August, Tropical Storm Isaias hammered the state with flooding and tornadoes including one that damaged trees, snapped utility poles and damaged houses along a 29-mile path. A later storm did similar damage on the northern edge of the state. Clean-up efforts continue.
In the meantime, the spotlight was on Wilmington as former Vice President Joe Biden selected Kamala Harris as his vice-presidential running-mate.
The largely virtual Democratic National Convention pretty-much ended up being in Wilmington, rather than Milwaukee, with fireworks along the riverfront concluding the event.
Coronavirus remained a big story as Delawareans look for signs of lower infection rates.
Below are links to the top 20 stories for the month.
Enjoy your evening. Now if we could do something about these overcast conditions that nearly cancel out the cooler temperatures. – Doug and Sharon Rainey.
