President Trump on Tuesday presented a doctored version of an official National Hurricane Center map of Hurricane Dorian's path that appeared to show Alabama in the eye of the storm.
Reality check: None of the original forecast maps featured the black loop that appeared on the map shown by Trump.
Presumably, the loop was drawn on the map to make it appear as though Trump's false claim that Alabama was in the storm's path was true. (The National Weather Service has since debunked the claim.)
In response, the White House provided a map it said Trump was shown on Sunday that displayed a large possible storm track that included a small piece of Alabama. It didn't say who produced the map.
Trump also tweeted a map showing many possible storm tracks, including over Alabama. But the map was dated Aug. 28, days before the storm approached the coast.

2. Pyongyang, North Korea
Pyongyang looks like a city designed by student architects who had never gotten a look at the real thing. Given North Korea’s secrecy and travel restrictions, that might actually be the case. Whoever the city planners were, they seemed to embrace pointlessness. Buildings appear to have been plopped down at random, and large modern-looking highways lead absolutely nowhere.
Then there’s the awesome ugliness of the Ryugyong Hotel. This 105-story monstrosity is wildly out-of-scale with anything else in the city. Esquire magazine readers decided the 3,200 room hotel the “Worst Building in the History of Mankind.” Others call it the “hotel of doom.”
A few brave souls who ventured inside and smuggled reports out have claimed that the elevator shafts are crooked and the walls are bare concrete. Even in North Korea that doesn’t equate to luxury accommodations.... less
