    It's 73 degrees outside, in mid-January. Big old honking line of thunderstorms is maybe 45 minutes out. We've been getting wind gusts up to 35 mph or so.

    They're predicting severe rain with straight line winds of 70 mph as the storm front passes, with a side order of possible tornadoes. Oh, happy day.

    We had that yesterday. Felt like spring - tornado warnings included. Now it’s 29 degrees and sleeting.

    I was in Nashville today and drove home four and a half hours in the middle of it every second of the way. The weather was bad enough, but compound that times 10,000 because of truckers. That was one of the most stressful things I've ever done in my life, and I've been in hurricanes and shot at. I've driven in similar situations a hundred times but never for that duration. It was bad.

    The Taal Volcano will save civilization.

    Bees would go there, but there's nothing to pollinate, and therefore no ecosystem to save.

    pollinators > heart transplanters

    Thus, by default, canceling our bid as "top species."

    It's Feb. 2 ... Groundhog Day ... Super Bowl Sunday.
    It was 62 degrees here today.
    A decade ago, I didn't need a cooler for Super Bowl parties. We'd just sit the beer out on the front porch because it was cold enough.

    It was 73 in Denver today. One snowstorm since Thanksgiving. Snow and subzero temps by Tuesday morning.

    We are looking at a winter without snow.
    It's supposed to be 60+ every day through Thursday and not get below freezing the next seven days.
