Hi! I'm from PA (USA), and have managed to live long enough to retire, but still don't feel like a grownup. I've been happily married over half of my years, and am leading a very quiet existence.

Sea ice extent in the Bering showing little change overall. Well below normal temperatures and prevailing north winds over the central and eastern Bering Sea for the past week have maintained the ice. @Climatologist49 @ZLabe

The upcoming congressional recess will fall in the middle of GOP efforts to craft a massively unpopular reconciliation bill that guts Medicaid and SNAP programs to fund tax cuts for billionaires. Our goal is to organize hundreds of rallies to turn up the heat on Republicans: indivisible.org/muskorus

Sunday was a very mild early March day in southcentral Alaska. Widespread lower 50s in the Anchorage and Wasilla areas and Kenai-Soldotna. #akwx #Spring2025

@AlaskaWx @Climatologist49 yep. It happened 2/15, so it's taking a long time. I was flagged as spam, and I'm not alone.

@AlaskaWx @Climatologist49 I'm glad to see you here. I was suspended from Bluesky for some reason 🤣

Utqiaġvik, Alaska average temperature for the winter 2024-25 of -4.6F (-20.3C) is the fifth highest in the past 105 years, and so was milder than ANY winter before 2017. All but two of the ten mildest winters have occurred since 2013. The last "top ten" coldest winter was 1976-77. Thinning sea ice is playing a large role in driving the dramatic warming, especially in the 21st century.

Clay Bennett in the Chattanooga Times Free Press

two chairs in the oval office

on the left sits Zelensky in loose clothing, eyes wide open hands clasped in his lap

on the right is a miniature trump in a suit and tie, looking like a doll perched on the seat

the ratio of the drawings suggest that Zelensky is 10x the man Trump is  [which still understates it]

The caption reads: The Trump-Zelensky Meeting

Scene from Star Wars. Darth Vader is pointing his finger at Princess Leia, right after her capture. He is asking, “Why aren’t you grateful? Why aren’t you wearing a suit?”

WOW, thank you all for the outpouring of support. Know that I am reading all of them and want to thank everyone individually.

Also, I did decide to share on Twitter/X (only to raise attention for the NOAA community)... Never again. Truly a horrific space. I've dealt with trolls for many years and thought I'd seen the worst of the worst. It has taught me unbelievable patience and compassion. But nothing compares to the hatred on Twitter/X that I received from my last post.

I am begging people to please leave that website for good.
