The travel ban has lifted, but do NOT drive if your car looks like this one. It's important to clear your vehicle completely before hitting the road.

Providence just destroyed the record books. 37.9 inches of snow, crushing the Blizzard of 78 by more than 9 inches. The largest storm in Rhode Island history and the highest snowfall ever recorded at an I-95 Northeast climate site. And it is still lightly snowing.

A snow-covered I-80 in California turned into a parking lot near Emigrant Gap, where dozens of trucks were stuck and traffic was backed up for more than six miles after heavy snow forced a shutdown of the eastbound lanes.

New: Trump admin moves to pull supercomputing center out of top weather and climate research center (NCAR) in Boulder, Colo. Part of its effort to "break up" the lab. cnn.com/2026/02/13/wea…

@KF4LMT We just got whacked with a CME ...

@business Colleague @willwwade has the news the Trump Administration is going after the National Center for Atmospheric Research bloomberg.com/news/articles/…

A deep freeze in the Northern Hemisphere would likely mean higher power and natural gas prices, adding to the cost burden for ratepayers as inflation remains stubbornly high, writes @WeatherSullivan @joewertz and @maryhui bloomberg.com/news/newslette…

4274, remember that number, you may be hearing more about it soon enough. #SpaceWeather

Unfortunately some of the barrier islands near the Black River have been cut off, with their only road being washed away. Hoping aid is coming their way! #Melissa #hurricane

#Melissa getting organized, latest NHC forecast is catastrophic for #Jamaica, #Haiti, eastern #Cuba ... impacts over 30% of GDP (>$6 Billion) in Jamaica possible.

My mother liked things with lots of fringe on them. I guess I do too.

There's a "tug of war" emerging between Arctic atmosphere (where air near surface is warming faster than high altitudes) and tropics (where high-altitude air is warming faster), and the as-yet TBD outcome will have major implications for global weather patterns. youtu.be/PDV0eCb7UAw

Typhoon #Kaijiki is making landfall in #Vietnam, more powerful than forecast. Impacts likely to be over $1 Billion; that would be like a $60-70 Billion storm for the US (like a Helene or Sandy). Elsewhere no threats. enkiops.org/2025/08/25/typ…

@business colleague @oanhha has the story on how climate change and heating world is changing the way people take "coolcations." bloomberg.com/news/articles/…

50 RIP current rescues just today in Wrightsville Beach. Please stay out of the water above your knees this week.#ncwx #scwx #obx #Erin

A large portion of the Atlantic coastline will see the risk for high surf and rip currents increase this week due to #Erin. 🟥Risk of Rip Currents is High🟥 Life-threatening rip currents are likely. Swimming conditions are unsafe for all levels of swimmers. Stay out of the water. Always follow advice from the local beach patrol and flag warning systems. #contents" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">nhc.noaa.gov/refresh/graphi…

It felt chilly out there today -- 69F at the local airport. Is there snow in the air @judah47 @JoeRyanNews ?

I rarely use X anymore --sorry guys, I noticed today a bunch of you have been poking at me lately. I love that you love me enough to care!!! Ha, anyway I wanted to post a photo of the Moon as it is right now. Good-bye Jim Lovell.

More than 700 Canadian forest fires are pouring smoke into some of the most heavily populated cities in NA, including Chicago, Toronto and Montreal. In the US, air quality alerts are up from Minnesota to Maine. And for now there is no relief coming. bloomberg.com/news/articles/…

That's an impressive pool of cool air in Northern Canada for late July! It's heading for the Eastern US for end of the week. Hopefully it hangs around until I return to Boston Aug 6. I have been enjoying the pleasant temps in Europe, heat & humidity would be a shock to the system
