Winter Storm #Cora is on deck this week. Ice and snow from Texas to New England is possible. This could get really tricky later this week. Get prepared now and stay safe.

The forgotten story of Jimmy Carter's White House solar panels Β» Yale Climate Connections More than four decades ago, President Carter said the U.S. could harness β€œthe power of the sun to enrich our lives as we move away from our crippling dependence on foreign oil.”

What do I remember most about Jimmy Carter?…he was ahead of his time in regard to renewable energy and had solar panels installed on the White House in 1979. RIP. The story: yaleclimateconnections.org/2023/02/the-...

Travel could be very hazardous tomorrow morning in New England. There's overnight ice in the forecast. Heads up.

Had a fun lunch at this Home Alone themed restaurant. "Guys! I'm eating junk and watching rubbish. You better come out and stop me!"

I literally have zero recollection of this. I must have been in a turkey coma. Sound like a riveting time though. πŸ˜‚

1/2 Two snow systems this week in the east. The first is Weds-Fri. Rain and snow with some accumulation. Higher elevations get more.

It’s what I’d refer to as an Al Roker Soaker for the parade Thursday. πŸ¦ƒβ˜”οΈ

Going to the #macysparade? This is probably not the forecast you want.

I’d watch anyway, def more incentive with snow in the forecast though.

Welcome rain is on the way for the bone-dry Northeast. This should help with the fires. The forecast then turns dry and sunny through #Thanksgiving. Looks good for travel and the parade in #NewYorkCity.

I had never eaten Chinese food until I was 19. Does that make me weird?

The category 5 atmospheric river event in the west will bring it all. Extreme rainfall, feet of snow, hurricane force winds. Be prepared for significant weather the next few days. #cawx #orwx #wawx
