@BlameBrianSmith@JasperNP Because visiting it is inspiring and gives us lessons firsthand how glaciers are. I won't ever forget walking on Athabasca in '95 and then the difference in size when I returned with my own kids in '22..
This is also why the whole “racism is going away as older generations pass away” line of thinking doesn’t work. Racism is a sin and because so it is here to stay. We will be fighting it until Christ returns. Racism morphs and is passed down. It is embedded in the culture.

I’m sorry I don’t break down every model run like I used to. I really did used to do it more but it just exhausts the heck out of me nowadays. But this morning’s European was absolutely unbelievable.
This may seem silly, but this is a major indicator of severe, widespread impacts.
The Waffle House Index is a real emergency metric used by FEMA.
When locations start closing ahead of a storm, conditions are expected to be dangerous.
The temps for today & this weekend are downright disrespectful. 🥶 Extreme temps will hinder the effectiveness of salt so plowing will be INDOT’s main course of action during the weekend winter event. Drivers will treat as conditions allow, and additives may be used if necessary.
A runaway truck at 65 mph. A prayer for others' safety. A "parting of the sea" at a busy intersection. One miraculous Saturday morning led Ronnie Harris to stop running and discover that Christ is not limited by time, space, or the physical.

Something about the GFS refusing to let go of its idea and theory is quite interesting. The Euro is stuck on it's own and different idea. We have two leading models here that isn't budging either way and they both have REALLY DIFFERENT takes on this storm. This is why you're seeing forecast maps that are very different. The truth? We need to wait for short range models to really see this storm, which unfortunately won't be until 6am tomorrow. Having that extra context will help see which models idea has a better chance of being more accurate. - George
People in Minnesota are sharing the “exploding tree warning” for tomorrow’s temperature drop, and let me explain.
The trees aren’t going to go around exploding like dynamite or something.
It’s just it gets so cold that the sap inside the trees can freeze and expand and that expansion can crack the tree open. It really only happens with a big temp drop, like when glass breaks if you put a cold glass pan in a hot oven. I’ve heard it before and it does sound like a gunshot, but the tree just cracks and breaks. There’s not bark flying anywhere or anything.
So yeah, you might hear a tree crack open tomorrow. Stay warm.
