    "ICE Reportedly Set To Send Tactical Units To More Blue Cities, Including Philly

    US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) is reportedly preparing to deploy tactical teams to five more cities led by Democratic officials as protests against the agency's actions spread nationwide, according to a new report.

    The ICE units, called Special Response Teams (SRTs) and known for their use of BearCat tracked vehicles and long guns, have been involved in high-risk operations, NBC News reported on Wednesday, June 11, citing sources.

    According to the sources cited by NBC News, the ICE units are set to mobilize in Seattle, Chicago, Philadelphia, northern Virginia, and New York.

    While the timing of the raids remains unclear, SRT units in these cities have been put on standby to deploy, NBC reports."

  10. This channel has its claws in me with the SEPTA content. Here's another video I quite enjoyed about Regional Rail. I actually don't use it much, since the Broad Street lines, Frankford-Market lines, and driving gets me to where I need to go. (Though I wish there was a regional rail stop closer to my workplace so I wouldn't have to drive as much. 😑)

    The quick history lesson regarding the rail lines was also a lot of fun.

  12. #SevereStorms with nocturnal #tornado risk to blitz over a dozen states

    Millions of people in the central and eastern #UnitedStates are bracing not only for severe storms and tornadoes but also weather whiplash with #temperatures plummeting as much as 60 degrees in less than 24 hours.

    By Alex Sosnowski, AccuWeather senior meteorologist

    Published Feb 26, 2024 12:07 PM EST | Updated Feb 26, 2024 3:32 PM EST

    "A powerful cold front will mark an end to surging June-like warmth from the Mississippi Valley to the Appalachians at the cost of potentially violent storms that will roar through more than a dozen states from Tuesday afternoon to Wednesday, AccuWeather meteorologists warn.

    "The upcoming severe weather eruption, which may affect as many as 50 million people, has been on AccuWeather's radar for at least a week due to a potent storm the team has been tracking since it began its journey well out over the Pacific Ocean. As that storm interacts with a strong jet stream, surging Gulf of Mexico moisture and an increasing temperature difference between unusual warmth and February cold, natural fireworks in the form of powerful thunderstorms will unfold.

    "'The first thunderstorms will erupt along the edge of advancing warm air from mid- to late afternoon on Tuesday from northern Illinois and Indiana to southern Wisconsin and Michigan, as well as northwestern Ohio,' AccuWeather Meteorologist Alyssa Glenny said. These storms will become severe toward the end of the day.

    "Next, thunderstorms will explode southwestward along the advancing cold front, extending from northern Illinois to Arkansas Tuesday evening. The front and the severe weather it packs will move across the Ohio and middle Mississippi valleys during the overnight hours on Tuesday.

    "All modes of #SevereWeather are anticipated with the severe weather. Some of the storms will pack damaging #wind gusts, large #hail and torrential #downpours capable of leading to flash flooding. However, the potential for multiple #tornadoes is also a serious concern with the upcoming severe weather threat.

    "'The greatest threat of tornadoes may occur along and in between interstates 70 and 80 in the Midwest, beginning in Illinois and western Indiana late in the day Tuesday and expanding eastward from there Tuesday night,' AccuWeather StormWarning Meteorologist Joseph Bauer said.

    "The Tuesday evening and night tornado threat includes the massive #Chicago and SaintLouis metro areas and the cities of #Indianapolis, #SouthBend and #FortWayne, Indiana; #ToledoOhio and #LimaOhio; and #SpringfieldIllinois and #PeoriaIllinois.

    "Should the severe thunderstorms organize into a single solid line on Tuesday night, the risk of damaging wind gusts may broaden, but the risk of highly dangerous tornadoes may lower. While a line of storms may form, it may be fragmented and individual discreet thunderstorms, which are most capable of producing tornadoes, may proceed the line.

    "AccuWeather meteorologists urge people in the path of the storms to pay attention to severe weather bulletins, including signing up for alerts that may precede the messages when sleeping at night, such as the AccuWeather App.

    "The risk of severe thunderstorms, including a few tornadoes, will carry over into Wednesday as the cold front advances to the east and south toward the central and southern #Appalachians. On Wednesday, the severe weather threat will extend from southern #NewYork state to the northern parts of #Mississippi, #Alabama and #Georgia.

    "The potential for storms capable of causing property damage and localized power outages on Wednesday will include #NewYorkCity, #Philadephia, #WashingtonDC., #Charlotte and part of the #Atlanta metro area.

    "As the powerful cold front presses on toward the mid-Atlantic coast, storms will bring brief downpours and strong wind gusts, as opposed to a tornado threat. In some cases, the squally storms may occur without thunder and lightning by the time the storms reach the coast, Bauer said.
    Powerful cold front to mark as much as 60-degree temperature crash

    "One of the reasons for the severe weather will be the rapid exchange of warm and cold air. Temperatures more typical of May and early June will precede the cold front, including unusual warmth at night into Tuesday in the Central states and into Wednesday along the Atlantic and Gulf coasts.

    "Widespread highs in the 60s and 70s across the north and the 70s and 80s across the south are in store ahead of the front. Nighttime lows will be in the 40s and 50s across the north and the 50s and 60s across the south for the first part of this week.

    "Temperatures will range from 15-30 degrees Fahrenheit above the historical average in many areas but may reach 40 degrees in some places through Tuesday in the central states and from Tuesday to Wednesday along the Atlantic and Gulf coasts.

    "In the wake of the front, from Tuesday to Wednesday night, temperatures will crash 40 degrees over a broad area in a matter of hours.

    "'For example, at Kansas City, Missouri, temperatures may drop about 60 degrees in 18 hours, which could set a record,' AccuWeather Meteorologist and Social Media Producer Jesse Ferrell stated. The existing record is 56 degrees, set on Jan. 15, 1953.

    "In some cases, such as parts of the central Plains, the Upper Midwest, the Appalachians and New England, the blast of cold air will be so rapid as to catch up with the lingering moisture in the wake of the front. This temperature plunge will lead to pockets of accumulating# snow and/or a rapid #freezeup where moisture and slush can freeze into sheets of ice within an hour.

    "The #FlashFreeze will spread eastward across the Upper #Midwest Tuesday night and from the central #Appalachians to #NewEngland Wednesday evening and night.

    "In most cases along the mid-Atlantic and southern New England coasts, gusty winds will dry off roads and sidewalks Wednesday night, but there may be a few exceptions, and caution is advised."

  19. Eine Nachricht von Mumia Abu-Jamal

    (...)
    ich habe Mumia gestern gesehen, und er war tief betroffen von dem Schlag, der Schwere, der herzzerreißenden Enttäuschung: dass die Freiheit wieder aufgeschoben wird.

    Ich brachte ihm die 38-seitige "Stellungnahme" von Richterin #Clemons. Er las die Worte sorgfältig und holte zuerst seine Lesebrille aus seiner Hemdtasche. Er beugte sich vor und las jede einzelne Zeile. Worte, die geschrieben wurden, um ihn zu begraben. Worte, die dazu bestimmt waren, die Hoffnung auszulöschen. Seiten, die ihn binden würden. Ein Gutachten, das die Leibesvisitation vor und nach jedem Besuch beibehalten würde. Eine Anordnung, die ihm das Essen und die Bewegung verweigern würde, die sein gebrochenes Herz und sein Herzleiden heilen könnten. Seiten, die ihn von seinen Urenkeln, seinen Brüdern, seinen Söhnen, seiner Tochter trennen. Worte, die ihn daran hindern, die heilende Umarmung seines Volkes zu empfangen, während er um #Wadiya, seine im Dezember nach 41 Jahren verstorbene Frau, weint und trauert.

  25. If something's inspired you recently to try #recycling your #pizza boxes, first check to see what your local recycling agency accepts. In #Philadephia, boxes that have absorbed grease (as most pizza-parlor pizza boxes have) aren't accepted, and can contaminate the waste stream, but clean boxes (such as store-bought pizza boxes where the pizza's wrapped in an inner layer) are OK.
