  1. Living near a national guard readiness center, a small public airport, AND a helicopter manufacture-turned-repair facility makes for a lot of interesting low flying air traffic that doesn't always hit the public adsb websites.

  2. Just spent almost five full minutes trying to figure out why it sounded like the furnace had turned on (it's still 80°F outside) & also why it sounded like it was thumping.

  3. "Ya know how sometimes you go on vacation and you’re so busy that, at the end of it, you wish you had another week of vacation to recoup? Well, that’s the beauty of retirement (and early retirement) – you can actually make that happen!"

  4. A small result from analyzing a long series of meteorological observations for Calgary.

    The openair package makes it surprisingly straightforward to combine space–time interpolation and visualization within a single workflow, even for large datasets.

    Here are the sectoral (wind direction × wind speed) mean air temperatures for Calgary.

    What’s striking is how clearly the seasonal patterns emerge:
    – a cold north-east sector in winter;
    – a warm southern and southwestern sector in summer;
    – transitional zones in spring and autumn;
    – a strong Chinook influence from the southwest.

    The polar format works exceptionally well here — the structure of the local climate becomes obvious at a glance, without the need for long tables or detailed descriptions.

  5. The J-pod lost another orca calf. J42 gave birth to her first calf in October, but when researchers went to check on the kiddo’s development, he was nowhere to be found. This orca pod has been losing calves year after year, thanks to the loss of Chinook salmon runs and toxins in the water.

  6. For the first time in more than a century(!!), salmon are returning to the Klamath River's headwaters following the completion of a major dam removal project.

    A good reminder that nature can rebound if we just let it 🐟

  7. Happy TRC day in Canada!!! Please learn about an Indigenous culture near you and how you can help the reconciliation process today. Here is a great website about the Metis which has a great section on "Métis Scrip". Do you know what scrip was and who it was given to? Click the link below to begin your learning journey!

  8. For ein halvtime sidan, høyrde eg ei voldsom helikopterliknande buldring. Plutseleg dukka det opp to #Chinook-helikopter som flaug frå vest mot aust....med fuel-lansar. Tenkte gjerne Trump hadde teke bytta California med Kvinesdal? 🤔 #ikkjekvardagskost

  9. I just watched 3 Boeing CH-47 Chinook in a loose triangle formation flying at low altitude over my town, obviously coming from Rammstein Airbase and seemed heading to the Coast border of Germany at Kiel, regarding on their direction coming from and flying towards.

    Today morning I read an article on N-TV about the concerns regarding the Kremlin expanding it's military infrastructure near the border to Finland and established a headquarter.
