New Orleans, LA has received more than double the amount of snowfall we've received here in Anchorage, AK since the start of meteorological winter (Dec. 1). New Orleans: 8.0"
Anchorage: 3.8"

@NWSNewOrleans, we'd like our snow back. Or at least some King Cake in return. 😉🙃

The newsroom at the Anchorage Daily News, the most widely read newspaper and news website in Alaska, plans to unionize.

At the top of the would-be union’s list of goals is better pay.

@djspencerlee Thank you!

Today, I’m heartbroken as the news is out—@hakaimagazine, a publication I helped launch with my dear friend and colleague @judeisabella, is done at the end of 2024. It’s such a shame for my colleagues, freelancers, readers, the science community and much, much more.

Anchorage community: If you have spare food in your pantries, consider making a box/bag and donating to St. Francis House Food Pantry. If you’re making a grocery run soon, please consider getting 1 or 2 extra of everything and donating to support food access for our neighbors.
