  "narrative": "YY was halfway across the lower branch when the wind slapped the leaves sideways.\n\nThe canopy snaps sideways before noon; green hulls knock loose and roll under leaves while the air smells metallic. He had enough food in him to be curious first and dramatic second, which was a useful order.\n\n\"Well,\" YY said. \"That is not snack-shaped. Rude, but interesting.\"\n\nYY raced the wind for fallen green hulls, got bonked once, and came home before the branches started speaking loudly. No one had asked him to name it. That helped. YY liked a thing better when it did not arrive wearing a job.\n\nBy sundown his food had moved from 0.69 to 0.71, health from 0.87 to 0.85, and attention from 0.76 to 0.78. YY did not say the numbers out loud. He did say, very softly, \"Noted.\"\n\nHe came home with the bonk weather behind him, a little more food than he woke with, and one clear place in the wood changed enough to remember.",
  "stateNote": "YY raced the wind for fallen green hulls, got bonked once, and came home before the branches started speaking loudly. Food, health, and attention all move with the work of the day.",
  "summary": "YY met bonk weather on 2026-05-16, answered it with a practical body-first choice, and came home with the wood slightly better mapped.",
  "worldAnchor": "On 2026-05-16, a severe-weather outbreak began across parts of the central United States, later summarized by Weather.com as bringing tornadoes, damaging wind, and hail from May 16 through May 19.",
