Weather radars are most interesting when storms are brewing and threatening patterns can be discovered and tracked. The same can be said about News Radars.
News Patterns algorithms have been tracking and plotting the patterns regarding US politics for several years. Approximately 15,000 articles and blogs have been tracked and patterned each week. Interesting patterns include the most relevant candidates and issues, as well as important connections among candidates, issues and voting groups. Radars change day by day as new news is collected and new patterns emerge.

On May 10th, 2013 the US Internal Revenue Service announced that some of its personnel were inappropriately targeting conservative political action groups, including the Tea Party. Within a short number of days, this IRS announcement spawned a "storm" of news activity in the US Politics News Radar. A cell of news activity and connections quickly emerged among the topics of Tea Party, IRS, Taxes and Conservative topics. This political storm cell has been moving to greater relevancy, approaching the Obama topic. Other topics like Immigration, the Economy and Gun Control are losing relavancy.
The IRS event also spawned a new political topic: Scandal. The Scandal topic is also moving to greater connectivity toward the Obama topic at this time. There is no doubt that the White House will be doing all in its power to dissipate this political storm, before it becomes any stronger or closer to the Obama news topic.
