I thought this was a really good OpEd. Sort of an open letter to people around the world shocked and dismayed by US foreign policy under Trump, written by a wise, knowledgeable and insightful American.

While many may be tempted to cut the U.S. off as an ally and partner, I hope our friends don’t give up on us so easily.

Not going to hold back words here. Expect major highway closures on Sunday night through the SW BC and WA Mountain passes. There is a significant landslide risk now after this past storm. This is a new and strong Atmospheric River about to slam into us, and it follows right on

This really is not looking good guys. This 3rd round of the Atmospheric River will end up doing more damage than what has already been done. The snowfall in the higher terrain after this passes will also hinder repair efforts that need to be done across the passes. Our state is

If you can call it a break weather wise. Enjoy it while you can in SW BC and the PNW. Next week is starting to look really, really, really ugly too. A likely Category 4 Atmospheric River of the dreaded Pineapple Express variety. Is following closely on the heels of a rare

This flood event will also extend into NW Oregon and SW British Columbia, though WA will likely be worst-hit. Major impacts and significant inundation/damage is possible, as are significant landslides. Additional warm rain on horizon through late Dec. #WAwx #BCstorm #ORwx [3/3]

A new @SciImmunology study that evaluated five different large language models LLMs finds that they can support vaccine research, but are not very effective at generating creative hypotheses or designing novel experiments. https://t.co/4qNwF4eo8H

It’s been eight years since the Thomas Fire erupted in Ventura County. We were watching the news and ensuring everything was ready to go. A short while later, we were headed up there.

In 2008, a simple projection suggested the world would pass 1.5C of warming in 2048. In 2016, it suggested 2038. In 2022, 2032. Today, current trend lines suggest 2029. The date has moved up nearly a decade in just a decade, and nearly two decades since the 2008 election.

In Montana, through the Reserved Treaty Rights Lands program, collaborative burns on the ancestral lands of the Confederated Salish and Kootenai Tribes are restoring forests for Indigenous uses and reducing wildfire risk. Learn more: https://t.co/UEcJ2w4RqL
