  1. "A daytime snowfall in front of airships in sepia", by yours truly. They're not easy to make out in the storm, but once you've seen it, you can't un-see it: imagine flying your plane into a storm only to emerge through a portal into The World of Tomorrow....

  3. Massive #snowstorm to bury areas from #OklahomaCity to #NewYorkCity, #Boston

    In what is likely to be the biggest winter storms in years for such a broad area of the U.S., heavy snow is forecast from the eastern slopes of the Rockies to the coastal Northeast. Travel shutdowns are anticipated.

    By Alex Sosnowski, AccuWeather senior meteorologist

    Published Jan 22, 2026

    "Enough snow to shovel and plow is forecast to spread from New Mexico and Colorado on Friday to Massachusetts and Maine by Sunday, impacting over 200 million people. It could be the biggest snowstorm in years with a large area having the potential to receive 6 to 12 inches of snow, with accumulations reaching 24-30 inches in the hardest-hit areas.

    " 'It is rare that storms combine this much snow, ice and bitter cold over such a large area — a widespread travel-halting winter storm will stall daily life for days in large portions of the central and eastern U.S.,' AccuWeather Senior Vice President Evan Myers said."

  4. Gift

    We got a lot of snow. I can’t really say how much because it tends to drift into my driveway. That’s just how the wind works in our neighborhood. A lot of the snow and leaves and stuff blows down the street and piles up in front of my house. I’d say at least six inches of snow, maybe more like eight. Could be a little more, who knows. It was enough.

    Fortunately it was nice and light and I got outside to shovel before it started to melt and refreeze, so it wasn’t a million tons of slush. It just picked up easy. The huge snow bank at the end of the driveway that the plows left behind was heavy, but not world ending heavy, if you know what I mean.

    I cleaned off the cars and shoveled the driveway-proper nice and easy, then spent a big chunk of time on the snow bank. The piles on either side of the driveway are getting big enough that you really need to chuck each shovel full far and high to get it over the top. I felt a little like a soldier in World War I wandering around in a trench (no I didn’t, really, but you get the idea).

    When the snow bank was gone I walked over to the fire hydrant at the other end of our front yard and found a really nice gift. Someone had already dug it out. It looked like the work of a snow blower, but I didn’t see any evidence of who might have done the work. Whoever it was (whomever it was?), I thank them very much! I don’t mind digging out the hydrant (it’s on my property after all) and you will never, ever hear me complain about doing it, but it was a really nice treat to not have to today. Again, thank you so much!

    I finished up by digging out the path around the side of the house to where we keep the trash barrels, and to the back door. Once it was done I came back inside and wrote this literary tome. Now I get to make my wife some lunch! Snow sucks, and shoveling sucks more, but it’s all done for today so it’s time to celebrate! Huzzah, babie!

  5. "The snowstorm currently lashing the Gulf Coast – which included the first-ever blizzard warning in Louisiana – is being described as a once in a generation weather event, the National Weather Service said Monday."

  6. What a DAY.

    I'm nowhere near where I need to be with work, partly because this morning was a slow start, and partly because some nincompoop managed to destroy our mailbox with a big-ass eighteen wheeler*.

    (They didn't stop, obviously, but I caught them on camera)

    We also managed to get our #FordF150Lightning talking to our #FordHomeIntegrationSystem again, shortly after I turned the latter off completely for 30 minutes on Tuesday to force-reset the system.

    Now the house can be backed up again by the truck, and while I was testing the system ahead of tomorrow's #SnowStorm for #PDX, my power LEGITIMATELY WENT OUT.

    I didn't know until #PGE sent me a message telling me. Sadly, the system did glitch out back there for a few minutes, but it's back up and running again, so yay?

    *We have logging trucks up and down here EVERY SINGLE DAY. They never hit anything. But a truck from Portland delivering building supplies that rarely does rural roads? Totally went off the road and hit our mailbox which is now RIP. It also means we won't get mail unless we make the 15-mile round-trip to pick it up...
