A rare critical fire danger over NW IL, and... elevated for everything else west of the Fox River across northern IL In spite of light overnite rain, an extremely dry air mass flowing in (dewpoints 30°-40° below air temps), very windy conditions with sustained winds over 20mph and gusts 40+, full sunshine, all on top of lots of field stubble that has been snow cover free for several days to weeks, will combine to create dangerously dry fuel for any “spark” that could take hold This same inbound airmass created massive wildfires over western OK and KS yesterday Video from chaser Jaden Pappenheim Jaden Pappenheimshow more

🚨 The Western US is about to get RAILED... by Snow. This begins early next week as an Atmospheric River of Moisture absolutely BLASTS the West Coast. ❄️ The heaviest Snow will fall in the Sierra Nevada, where up to 100 inches, nearly 8 FEET, could pile up mainly Monday through Wednesday. 🏔️ Heavy Snow is also likely in the Rockies, where places like Colorado and Utah have been STARVED for Snow. Multiple waves of Moisture could bring 1 Foot or more over several days. 🏔️ The Cascades get in on the action too, with up to 1 Foot or more possible. Some Snow arrives this weekend, with another stronger round next Wednesday. 🌧️ Lower elevations in California and Washington could see Flooding Rain, with localized totals pushing 3 inches or more. Overall, this is WELCOME news for our West Coast brotheren who have seen very little Snow over the past month. 👊 Enjoy the Snow and Rain, my brotheren.show more

The upcoming storm system is eerily reminiscent of March... of 1995. A snow-moving occluded front strengthened by a 130-knot plus westerly jet stream flowing across the Pacific will be centered over the Central Coast tonight into Friday. This condition will create an Atmospheric River (AR) that will produce moderate gale-force to fresh gale-force (32 to 46 mph with gusts to 55 mph) southerly winds and continuous moderate to heavy rain over a 24-hour period. NOAA’s HRRR (High Resolution Rapid Refresh) model indicates between 3 and 5 inches of rain for most of the coastal and inland valleys; however, orographic enhancement due to the southerly gales will produce between 5 and 10 increase of rain along many of the southerly facing slopes, such as portions of the Cuesta Grade. The Santa Lucia Mountains above Morro Bay, Cayucas, Cambria, San Simeon, and Big Sur could see over 15 inches of rainfall. Scattered rain showers will develop on Saturday, ending on Sunday into Monday. Another storm system is forecast to produce additional rain on Tuesday into Wednesday. At this time, between 2 and 4 inches.show more

#mountainfire update; The fire is currently at 20,596 acres... with 7% containment. There are currently 2,420 personnel on scene, including 378 engines, 20 Water Tenders, 34 Hand Crews, 17 Dozers and 14 helicopters. VCFD is in unified command with CAL FIRE Incident Management Team 5 and we are incredibly grateful for the support of our mutual aid partners. Damage assessment teams are in process of identifying and verifying the number of structures that have been impacted. Our thoughts are with all of members of our local Ventura County community through this devastating incident. The fire is burning in steep, rugged terrain with dry and receptive fuels that continue to challenge containment efforts. Fire activity has decreased due to a decrease in winds over the area. A large animal evacuation center has been established at the Earl Warren Showgrounds in Santa Barbara. A public information hotline has been established. Affected residents can call 805-465-6650 for assistance. Evacuation orders remain in place. Residents are encouraged to visit for the most current evacuation information. An evacuation center has been setup at Padre Serra Parrish at 5205 Upland Rd in Camarillo. The video is from inside of the Ventura County Air Unit Firehawks as they perform water drops over the fire yesterday.show more

🚨 An absolutely LUDICROUS amount of Snow is about... to fall out West as a TRAIN of Storms pushes onshore. ❌This comes as our West Coast brotheren have been dealing with RECORD low Snowpack, with many ski resorts forced to close parts of their mountains due to a lack of Snow. That is ALL about to change next week as an Atmospheric River delivers a near constant FEED of moisture into the West. ❄️ The heaviest Snow remains on track to fall in the Sierra Nevada, where 4 to 8 FEET or more could pile up early this week. 🏔️ Heavy Snow will also dump into the Rockies, including Colorado and Utah. Here, 1 Foot or more could fall over several days. 🌲 The Cascades will see PLENTY of Snow as well, with 1 to 2 FEET likely in the higher elevations. 🌧️ Lower elevations along the West Coast, including Seattle, could see a few Snow Flakes mix in, but little to no accumulation is expected. ✅This is FANTASTIC news for our mountain loving brotheren out West who have been DYING for Snow. It will also do wonders for the California and Rocky Mountain Snowpack, which desperately needs the boost. 👊 Enjoy the Snow, my mountain loving brotheren.show more

HELENE will be a MAJOR impact well inland. Georgia,... the western Carolina's, Tennessee and Kentucky! This is actually a rare meteorological setup for this side of the world. This is called the "Fujiwara Effect" -- notice how major hurricane Helene gets boomeranged NW and around a low pressure aloft over west TN. Think like two planets orbiting each other than consolidating into one. This complicated, and uncommon meteorological process will help keep the forward speed of the remnants very high. Destructive wind gusts throughout central Georgia, Atlanta area and east TN. This won't be like Ike remnants in 2008 in TN/KY but I think will surprise many with the inland wind gusts Friday well inland. I could see 50-60 MPH gusts all the way to the Ohio River solely due to this complex meteorological phasing. Most times, a hurricane this time of the year goes NE, not hooks a hard NW (left) turn when inland. Really, a rare occurrence.show more

🇵🇭 PHILIPPINES BRACES FOR ANOTHER SUPER TYPHOON Just days... after Typhoon Tino wrecked Cebu and killed over 200 people, another monster is on the way to the Philippines, and this one’s aiming for the island that holds Manila. Typhoon Fung-wong, locally named Uwan, is spinning with winds up to 185 kph and could slam into Luzon on Sunday night. The last storm left half a million people in the dark, with power outages across central islands that could take weeks to fix. A storm of that magnitude will likely tear through the nation's capital, where millions of people are barely coming to terms with the last typhoon. Source: Reutersshow more

BC, here’s the next update on the unusual bomb... cyclone situation, on Nov 19th. (Scroll for wind forecast) The low pressure system - which is currently roughly 3,200 km SSW of Vancouver island - will race southeast over the pacific during the next 36 hours, while growing rapidly. But the weather system truly becomes problematic as it turns northeast Tuesday morning, where it will completely devour the low in the gulf of Alaska. The storm will explode in intensity, and as pressures plummet near the centre of the storm, winds will explode to numbers more typically seen in tropical cyclones. At this point the storm will be a major bomb cyclone, and will obtain peak intensity by late afternoon or early evening, roughly 400 km west of Vancouver Island. Peak intensify: • Max wind gusts: 185km/h • Min pressure: 944mb Yet the low casts uncertainty over parts of the BC south coast. Northern and western Vancouver island are likely to be impacted with very high southeasterly winds, but southern and eastern sections lay in a zone filled with possibilities. Despite that, I have gathered together the latest data, to create this forecast ⬇️ • Western Vancouver Island: Peak wind gusts 80 to 110km/h, except up to 140km/h near Brooks peninsula provincial park. Timeframe: Tuesday afternoon, through Wednesday. • Northern Vancouver Island: Peak wind gusts of 90 to 120km/h. Timeframe: Tuesday afternoon through Wednesday night. • Eastern Vancouver Island: Peak gusts of 70 to 100km/h. Timeframe: Tuesday evening, again gusting up to 90km/h near Comox on Wednesday. • Southern Vancouver Island: Peak gusts of 70 to 100km/h Tuesday evening, highest winds over western sections. Timeframe: Tuesday evening, with winds reaching-strengthening early Wednesday near the Haro Strait. • Sunshine Coast - Sechelt to Powell River: Peak gusts ranging 70 to 100km/h. Timeframe: Later Tuesday evening lasting into Wednesday. • Lower Mainland: Peak easterly wind gusts of 40 to 70km/h except southeast up to 90km/h near the Strait Of Georgia. Timeframe: Tuesday night - and into Wednesday near the coast. Prepare for power outages and travel delays. Secure lose objects. Another update will be posted Monday, Nov 18th. #BCStormWatch #BC #BCWind #Storm #BombCyclone #BCBombCycloneshow more

JUST IN: State of Emergency has been declared in... Iceland after the country has experienced over 1000 earthquakes in the Grindavik area. Since late October, the Grindavik area has experienced over 24,000 tremors. Icelandic authorities are now fearing that a volcanic eruption may be eminent which could impact the popular TikToker destination, the Blue Lagoon. (Video below) "The National police chief… declares a state of emergency for civil defence due to the intense earthquake (activity) at Sundhnjukagigar, north of Grindavik" said the Department of Civil Protection and Emergency Management. "Earthquakes can become larger than those that have occurred and this series of events could lead to an eruption." The Icelandic Met Office added that an eruption could be "several days" away. The Grindavik village has a population of 4000 and is just two miles from where earthquakes registered. The Blue Lagoon, a popular tourist destination, is also in danger of being impacted. Evacuation plans are in place.show more

🇭🇰 MASSIVE FIRE ENGULFS HONG KONG HOUSING BLOCK A... towering blaze ripped through bamboo scaffolding in Hong Kong’s Tai Po on Wednesday, leaving two people with severe burns and several more trapped as flames jumped from one building to another. The fire started at Wang Fuk Court and was so intense, it escalated to a No. 4 alarm in under 45 minutes - on a scale that maxes out at 5. Hong Kong has been under a red fire danger warning for days, meaning conditions are perfect for a disaster like this - dry air, strong winds, and flammable materials everywhere. Residents were told to stay inside, seal windows, and stay calm - not easy advice to follow when flaming bamboo is falling from the sky. Source: SCMP, Reuters, Visegrád 24show more

LMAO 😭 This is the “big reveal” that all... the Bondi-haters have been hyping up? This is an absolute nothing burger. Bondi is asked when the Epstein files will be released, she says she cannot give dates, and that the FBI are working on it, and there are tens of thousands of videos of “little kids” that the FBI are going over. Firstly, this is not news, as Bondi has been on Fox News very consistently for weeks, keeping the public updated, and she has told us that the SDNY delivered tens of thousands of files, audio, video, etc. Epstein was running a honeypot/blackmail operation, trafficking children, and arrested on charges for abusing children. This is not breaking news. We have known this for years. Yet that scumbag O’Keefe is trying to paint this as if Bondi is somehow covering up the Epstein files. When in reality, she just confirmed, once again, that they are still looking over it, and hopefully it will be done “soon”. This doesn’t paint Bondi in a bad light AT ALL, and those trying to push this as some sort of scandal are no allies of MAGA or the American People.show more

It’s been an outrageous weekend for Vanderbilt Baseball 2026... commit RJ Cope, a 6-foot-8 first baseman and lefty with top-of-scale raw juice from the left side at the plate. The big man is 10-for-16 with a homer, double, four walks to two Ks and three stolen bases. It’s a no-doubt power over hit profile but he’s done an outstanding job of waiting for his pitch and depositing it in gaps like in the video below when he put a defensive two-strike swing on a ball to cash in runs for his team in a critical spot. All of this and Cope is still new to hitting. His potential is off the charts with the bat.show more

NEWS UPDATE, KURSK FRONT 11:00 CET, MARCH 12, 2025... The Russian counteroffensive continues (map 1). Only the western suburbs of Sudzha remain in Ukrainian hands. As sideshows in the west, RuAF also has made minor progress south of Lebedevka and towards Basivka on the Ukrainian side of the border. The situation is fluid and it's hard to know how many Ukrainian soldiers are left. Therefore it's hard to predict how fast the Russian advance will proceed. Yesterday I wouldn't have expected a Russian assault over the river in the middle of Sudzha, but RuAF must have seen that there were few defenders and attacked. The next step for the Russian forces (map 2) is to take the western suburbs in Sudzha and then continue towards the border along the two roads (white on map 2). The goal would be to retake the northern 60 kmsq (A) that remains in Ukrainian hands. By this operation they will also cut off any possibility to supply area B in the sparsely populated southern 60 kmsq, including the villages of Guevo and Gornal. This operation will probably take 2-4 days. If area B, i.e. the Guevo cauldron, hasn't already been abandoned by the Ukrainans, when the northern part is taken, the final operation in the Second battle of Kursk will be the elimination of this area. That part of the operation will probably take 1-2 days. All in all, we can expect the battle of Kursk to be over in 2-6 days. In the video you see Russian troops calmly showing the Russian flag in the centre of Sudzha earlier this morning.

We’ve been busy lately! Busy sourcing and setting up... tents in encampments filled with makeshift shelters that wouldn’t remain standing through the next storm. Over the last two weeks, The Sameer Project purchased 40 large waterproof tents and set up 20 so far for families in the most dire conditions. The pure joy you see on the face of the children is both heartwarming and heartbreaking at the same time. Celebrating a simple tent. While we do everything we can to provide these moments of relief, it’s of course necessary to remember that these families have lost absolutely everything and have been displaced countless times. We will keep screaming for a ceasefire so that this nightmare ends. And keep assisting families that need our support! Contribute to our South: Tents, Cash Aid, and Medical campaign so that we can continue to provide shelter and comfort for displaced families:show more

San Bernardino County Fire and CAL FIRE Partner on... Front Country Fuel Reduction Project SAN BERNARDINO, CA — The San Bernardino County Fire Protection District, assisted by CAL FIRE, began Phase 1 of the North San Bernardino Front Country Fuel Reduction Project. This proactive wildfire mitigation effort is designed to reduce fire risk and improve protection for communities along the northern edge of the City of San Bernardino. The project will establish a 50-foot-wide fuel break extending approximately one mile from Highway 18 west to Devils Canyon. Crews will be removing vegetation and reducing available fuels that could contribute to wildfire growth and spread. Historically, several significant wildfires have originated in this area and threatened homes and neighborhoods throughout North San Bernardino. The construction of this fuel break will help slow the spread of future wildfires, improve firefighter access, and provide an additional layer of protection for residents and property. Work on the project is expected to take approximately one to two weeks to complete. Residents may see firefighting personnel, equipment, and vegetation removal operations occurring throughout the project area during this time. While this project represents an important investment in wildfire preparedness, San Bernardino County Fire reminds residents that the threat of wildfire exists year-round. There is no better time than now for homeowners to create and maintain defensible space around their homes by removing dead vegetation, clearing combustible materials, and following recommended fire-safe landscaping practices.

The faggots showed “routes of Ukrainian drones” to the... Leningrad region — through the territory of Belarus and NATO countries (Picture #1). Now let’s look at reality, confirmed exclusively by their own official sources. Here’s how the air raid alerts developed in Russia on these days: Video for March 23 (Video #1) Video for March 25 (Video #2) Video for March 26 (Video #3) We’ve been working for a long time on our own website — an independent analog of the Ukrainian air alert site, but for the Russian swamps. It shows not only the alerts, but also the work of their air defense. We just managed to finish the recording and history function right before the strikes on the Leningrad region. Interesting detail: as soon as an air alert is declared in the Leningrad region itself, literally a few minutes later it is immediately announced in the Bryansk, Smolensk, Tver, and other regions that lie “on the way” to Leningrad. We do not rule out that the drones could have flown over the eastern districts of Belarus. That option is theoretically possible. However, there is zero confirmation: Belarusian chats in those areas were silent, locals wrote nothing, and no objective evidence (video or photos) has appeared. A simple logical question for all their “experts”: If our drones were not flying over Russian territory, but somehow cruising through NATO countries, then why the fuck did you declare air alerts across the entire country? What exactly were your air defense systems “shooting down” over your own regions? Why did the alerts trigger exactly in the regions that, according to your version, the drones never flew over? And the most interesting part — why does this alert pattern lead perfectly straight to the Leningrad region, where real strikes and fires occurred on exactly those dates? - Night of March 23 — massive attack on the Primorsk port (one of the key oil terminals on the Baltic). A fuel tank was damaged, and the fire burned for over a day. Governor Drozdenco claimed “over 50 drones shot down.” - Night of March 25 — strikes on the Ust-Luga port (Novatek terminal) and Vyborg (a ship was damaged, likely the icebreaker “Purga”, and the port itself). Fire in the port. They claimed “33 drones shot down.” - Night of March 26 — attack on the Kirishi Oil Refinery (KINEF) industrial zone. Fires confirmed by NASA FIRMS satellite imagery. They claimed “21+ drones shot down.” You faggots, when you lie about “routes through NATO”, at least try to coordinate your bullshit with your own official data. The picture is hilarious: alerts across the whole country, air defense working at full capacity, “hundreds shot down” — yet the drones supposedly “never flew over Russia.” Draw your own conclusions, friends. Logic has never been Russian propaganda’s strong suit.show more

🚨 It’s happening. Our Storm is entering BOMB GENESIS... MODE and is now rapidly strengthening. 💨 Conditions about to head downhill in a HURRY as Winds begin to CRANK close to Hurricane Force this evening , especially near the Carolina coastline. ⏬ Over the next 24 hours, this Storm is expected to drop 35 millibars in pressure, rivaling the rate of intensification seen in some of the MOST EXTREME Hurricanes in recent years. 🌀 At peak intensity, pressure could fall as low as 967 mb, territory normally reserved for a Category 3 Hurricane. 🌬️ That kind of pressure drop will drive WIND GUSTS up to 70 mph on land, particularly along the Carolina coast. This is near HURRICANE FORCE. 🌊Over the open water of the Atlantic, Winds could get as high as 100mph during the height of the Storm. Just insane. ❄️ The combination of HOWLING WIND and HEAVY SNOW will produce BLIZZARD CONDITIONS for many. ⁉️We should have widespread Blizzard Warnings across eastern North Carolina. Not sure why the NWS is holding back. But that doesn't matter. ❤️The HEART OF THE STORM is still ahead of us. 🔏LOCK IN. Hang on, my brotheren. With a little luck and a lot of toilet paper, we will all get through this. Godspeed and good luck 👊show more

⚠️⚠️⚠️ Russian officials in Crimea have been ordered to... begin evacuating equipment and documents. 🔹 The occupation administrations of Kerch and Feodosia are preparing to remove documents by July 4th. According to sources from the "Atesh" movement, the occupation administrations of Kerch and Feodosia have received an urgent order from the so-called "authorities" of Crimea to fully evacuate valuable documents and equipment. The deadline for fulfilling this order is the entire month of July. 🔹 This directive has also been sent to several other departments. In light of this directive, some officials, who previously had access to official fuel, have suddenly "fallen ill" and have taken leave due to health reasons, quickly leaving for Krasnodar Krai. As a reminder, previously, "Atesh" agents reported that the occupiers were urgently relocating their operational headquarters to work around the clock and were preparing for something with increased intensity by June 21st. 🔹 The Crimean collaborators understand very well that accountability for their actions is approaching, and that Russian air defense will not save them.

Attempt to get to Canada, part 2. After more... than 13 hours stuck in Edinburgh airport and a plane that was clearly unfit to fly, we are waiting to take off for Montreal. Yesterday was like a comedy of errors. Why did Air Canada put us anywhere near that plane? In over 20 years of flying, I’ve rarely been more concerned about taking off in a plane. Worst of all, was the lack of info for passengers, many of whom had had the same flight cancelled the day before. No water offered in the plane for well over an hour -despite the searing temperatures. Numerous elderly folk were suffering in the heat. Several passengers were still waiting for their luggage past 9pm last night. Nobody had a clue what was going on. Many people had had no food since before 0900. Absolute shambles. Hope the Tartan Army lads make it to Miami ok!🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿show more

As you know there was an internet black out... in Iran yesterday for the anniversary of Mahsa Amini’s passing. Naturally very little appeared on telegram and what they did try to live stream was quickly shut down by the regime cyber army. Major accounts that cover the protests have been disabled. But they did take place all over the country and security forces who had been violent (like this lot on motorcycles) were met with resistance, this footage from Tehran somehow making it through. I’m sure more video evidence of what actually happened yesterday and today will emerge in the coming days. A reminder of the famous words of jazz poet Gil Scott-Heron: “the revolution will not be televised brother… the revolution will be live.” #mahsaaminiمهساامینیshow more

🇷🇺⛽️❌🏭 The Russians are already realizing that the fuel... shortage in the country is not artificially created, but is due to the fact that Ukrainians are precisely and effectively bombing Russian oil refineries, oil depots, and pumping stations 📌 "This is not an artificial fuel shortage in the country — things are going very badly for us. Restoring the oil refineries will take a very long time." 📌 A Russian man decided to check whether a gasoline crisis had truly hit Russia — and discovered that, in reality, everything is indeed very, very bad. Deepening Energy Crisis:Comprehensive assessments confirm that a campaign of systematic strikes by Ukrainian Defense Forces has knocked out over 40% of Russia's total designed oil refining capacity, forcing dozens of regions to implement unprecedented fuel rationing. The Sanctions Chokehold: Industry experts note that because major refineries heavily rely on specialized Western technology and imported components, tight sanction regimes are indefinitely stalling major repairs, rendering immediate recovery impossible.
