Friday the 13th...and it's snowing... Not sure what kind of weird magic is going on but our mountain snowpack is here for it

@PrepareNW @waDNR_fire The plate is in it's final testing phases, and we will be sure to spread the news like wildfire once it is available!

It’s winter. The air is cold. The synths are very moody. And yes, you still need to hydrate.

If I took the entire bowl...does the naughtiness cancel out? Asking for a friend....

Over the past week, historic flooding has hit Washington State, forcing evacuations, road closures, landslide conditions and other hazards. At @waDNR, 175 agency personnel - including firefighters, geologists, and others - have rushed to help respond to this crisis.

Pineapple is terrible on pizza, but even worse on an Express currently hitting Washington
