This, after heavy snowfall caused major disruptions in provinces including KwaZulu-Natal, Free State and Eastern Cape at the weekend.

Ask A Question: saythatpodcast@gmail.com thebridgechicago.tumblr.com/ask (Anonymous) Intro and a winter weather emergency. (00:00-15:24) Did you guys see the story of the Ohio pastor who was charged for letting homeless people sleep in his church during the cold snap (https://www.cincinnati.com/story/news/2024/01/19/ohio-pastor-charged-zoning-violations/72281784007/). It got me thinking about what I would do. Would breaking the law be the right thing to do? (15:37-33:14) What is fasting for? I don't see how being hungry is going to make me a better Christian. (33:19-49:17) In Mark 7, Jesus is roasting the Pharisees about how they honor God with they lips “but their hearts are far from Him”. Isn't that true of everyone? Is there something particular about their case? (49:20-01:03:04) Closing Song: Child of Wandering Will (Lee Younger)

This week on the Everyone's A Critic Movie Review Podcast, Movies about Missing People. In honor of the release of the new thriller Missing, Sean and Jeff watched Missing along with Megan is Missing, and Night Moves. We also discussed the Oscars, Sean's hatred of Blonde, Jeff's anger over Mia Goth not being nominated and their equally confused take on how All Quiet on the Western Front became an Oscar frontrunner. New Movies: Missing - When her mother disappears while on vacation in Colombia with her new boyfriend, June's search for answers is hindered by international red tape. Stuck thousands of miles away in Los Angeles, June creatively uses all the latest technology at her fingertips to try and find her before it's too late. However, as she digs ever deeper, her digital sleuthing soon raises more questions than answers. Megan is Missing - A teenager mysteriously disappears without a trace after meeting someone she had been talking to online. Undisputed Classic Night Moves - Hard-nosed private investigator Harry Moseby (Gene Hackman), to distract himself from a rapidly deteriorating marriage, takes a case from an aging B-movie queen (Janet Ward) to locate her runaway daughter, Delly (Melanie Griffith). His search takes him to the Florida Keys, where the girl has been hiding out with her stepfather, Tom (John Crawford), and Tom's lover, Paula (Jennifer Warren). Harry initiates an affair with Paula and soon learns the case is more complex than he first assessed it. 1993 - Aspen Extreme, Hexed Next Week - Infinity Pool, Women Talking, You People, Shotgun Wedding, There's Something Wrong with the Children, Snow Falls, Classic - Rabid1993 - Children of the Corn II, Matinee, Sniper, Blind Side Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/criticspod Teepublic: https://www.teepublic.com/user/criticspod?utm_source=designer&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=reAEYmh6vUY YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCnFNiCSoEAfk7Y3C8sfoTRw/videos Jeff's Art: https://jefflassiter.com/home.html Sean's Reviews: https://seanatthemovies.blogspot.com/?fbclid=IwAR2JISOf6B0anoWaKj1Lipb6cptYzKeIBEGxmQBeXIXB2LEYbcbvLhs8OjU

THIS WEEK in the Monadnock Region: We attempt, with all we have, to produce our first of several Christmas/Holiday-themed episodes, but we'll blame our partial failure on the fact that this episode was recorded BEFORE the Hometown Holiday Weekend! (But if you listen all the way through, you'll hear Chris sing the NH state song to the tune of a classic Christmas carol) Did you know we are selling controversial merchandise? Find it here - you'll never get libel and outrage and inside jokes like this anywhere else! https://www.redbubble.com/people/GoMo-Gear/shop * We cover some pre-HH Weekend thoughts and wishes (maybe spreeeeeaad these great events out a little bit; maybe different orgs and town departments can call each other before scheduling things) * We're not just "talking excrement" here - we're not just lending our hands but VOWING to host a GoMonadnock Holiday Ball starting next year (we're here to help) * Special Christmas reminder that at the summer Night Market we produced Peterborough's very own H***ark Christmas Special, Snow Falls, Love Settles (watch it in full here, performed by Corinne Chronopoulos, Eddie Gomez, "The Belt Hipp", and David of Texas: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RMtMZeLsqDM) * At this point in the episode, Christmas gets lost a little bit because we were COMPELLED to discuss the newspaper's controversial Ivy Vann "article" (and if it's not controversial, we tell you why it should be) * What happened here? Why wasn't anybody with any interest in any of the subjects covered in this "story" called and given an opportunity to comment or offer an opposing perspective? (there's no way to twist the basic fundamental tenets of journalism to explain this away) * Why wouldn't this many column-inches be dedicated to, say, someone who maybe WON an election this year (like come on, where's the multi-thousand-word profile of a certain brilliant fellow whose election victory might be called historical significance?) * Bottom line is that the public deserves and should demand much better than this for the public discourse, and weird offensives like this hinder, rather than help, our ability to have a productive conversation on housing * While we were recording, we received some live breaking news about the DNC trying to destroy New Hampshire's sacred FIRST IN THE NATION STATUS (this aggression will not stand!) * We have a special Christmas New Hampshire Patriotism moment, exploring our official state song and why Vermont sucks Check out Monadnock Underground's Fall 2022 season: www.monadnockunderground.com/tag/fall2022season/ Contact us: Hate mail and information about how to send us your awesome calendar photos: diloreto@monadnockunderground.com Submissions: submit@monadnockunderground.com Advertising/Sponsorship: zoe@monadnockunderground.com www.gomonadnock.com/ www.monadnockunderground.com/ This episode was produced by Sound Lord Chad Patterson of Studio 117.

The office of the Town Clerk is the repository for the maintenance and safekeeping of records for the Town of Ashford, Conn. The Town reports that housed in the fire-proof vault in the office of the Town Clerk are all land records, Town Meeting minutes, Town Ordinances, birth/marriage/civil union/death records, land surveys, election records, trade names, liquor permits, contracts, town reports, veterans discharge filings, Town board/commission/agency agendas and minutes, listings of Notaries Public, Justices of the Peace, election records, and other historical documents. Just about everything and anything you can think of. In addition to maintaining records, the Town Clerk's Office is the place to go for absentee ballots, copies of vital records, dog licenses, marriage licenses, voter registration forms. The Town of Ashford is not unique to New England, for centuries the Town Clerks at these hamlets great and small have dutifully recorded, not just those official papers I reported on, but other significant events. They have told the story of America, it so happens that on May 5, 1761, Ebenser Byles, Town Clerk of Ashford reported that 5" of snow fell and that it was, and I quote from his official record "A very stormy day of snow, an awful sight, the trees green and the ground white. The trees in a blow and the fields covered with snow" See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
The neighborhood of Germantown in Philadelphia sits at a higher elevation than most of the rest of the city. From 250-300 feet above sea level the temperature can average a degree or two colder than the city below. During weather situations that are borderline between rain and snow, often times much of the City of Philadelphia will have a slushy mixture of rain and snow, while only wet snow falls in Germantown and its adjacent elevated neighborhood of Chestnut Hill; sometimes depositing a couple inches of snow. On May 4, 1774 Germantown was a not part of the City of Philadelphia yet, it was a prosperous town of hundreds living in long established stone houses. Germantown was founded in 1683 and awaited its fate as the location of one of the most important battles of the Revolutionary War in 1777. But on May 4, 1774 as a strong storm surged up the Atlantic seaboard, temperatures held just near freezing, and while rain fell in the City of Philadelphia below 4” of heavy wet snow blanketed Germantown in one of the latest snowfalls on record in the region, before or since.

The average annual snowfall in Philadelphia is slightly more than 22”. In April, Philly averages a half an inch of snow and there is measurable snow in April there only once every other year. 1841 was not so kind to Philadelphia. Unusual late season cold lingered for much of the month and a series of storms swept out of the Gulf of Mexico and up the East Coast of the United States bringing one snow event after the other. 6” of snow fell in the city on April 10th and 3” fell on Aril 13 and 14th, but the heaviest snowfall occurred in between those two systems when a foot of the white stuff piled up on April 12, 1841. Almost 20” of snow fell on Philadelphia in April 1841 – the average for an entire winter season. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
The city of St. Louis, Missouri, is known as the “Gateway to the West.” It has this nickname because it was the starting point for the westward movement of people in the United States during the early to mid-1800s. It was a traveling hub for many settlers, hunters and others migrating west. The Gateway Arch now in St. Louis symbolizes the city's nickname. St. Louis was where many wagon trains got organized that first began to head west on the Oregon Trail and to California. Even though Kansas City and Independence Missouri where other jumping off points, St. Louis was the last big city that many settlers encountered. The "Gateway to the West" was where these travelers could load up on supplies they couldn't find elsewhere before heading through the vast open western wilderness. April was a time or organization before waiting a few more weeks for the snow in the Rockies to melt. It all had to be timed just right because leaving too late in the spring might mean getting stuck in the mountains by the snow of the coming winter, and that could result in disaster. Nice Spring weather was the key to a good start. On April 2, 1837 the weather failed to cooperate dumping 17” of snow in St. Louis and as much as 24” in nearby towns just to the west delaying the start of many wagon trains.

In the 1820's and 1830s just after Maine became a state, after separating from Massachusetts, crop failures combined with cold weather caused some in New England to dream of warmer climates to the west. About this time Newspaperman Horace Greely was purported to have said “Go west, young man, and grow up with the country”? Many started the exodus for the Midwest. A major cradle of Midwestern settlement was Maine, Maine's stony soil and the decline of its shipping trade pushed thousands of Mainers to get out just after it achieved statehood in 1820. The exodus was so bad that many newspaper editors in Maine wrote about the fear that the new state would actually be depopulated by “Illinois Fever” and the rush to lumbering towns along the Great Lakes — and then Oregon. Many of those Mainers and New Englanders settled in Indiana in addition to Illinois. They were greeted by a period of mild winters for a decade or so, but I was not to remain that way. The weather pattern shifted back to more typical Midwest cold and snowy winters. On March 30, 1843 2 feet was measured on the ground across much of Michigan, Illinois and Indiana. Until this point, farmers and loggers of the region had thought the climate to be better than New England – where many had just originated. The winter of 1842-43 dashed their hopes.

It had been fairly snowy across Kansas and Missouri in the 1911-1912 winter season. By the later stages of March, Kansas City already had recorded more than 40” of snow including 15” earlier in March alone. Average snowfall for an entire season is about 15” so the city already had well above its normal snowfall. Milder weather had made several attempts to move into that part of the nation during March, but cold air held firm and so it was cold on March 23, 1912 as a storm spun up in the southern Rockies. That's system moved eastward pulling moisture from the Gulf of Mexico ahead of it and skirted along the southern edge of the cold air mass that was in place across the Plains states. As the storm moved through Texas, Kansas City was deep in the cold air. Snow began to fall in the afternoon of the 23rd and by the time it ended on the evening of March 24, 1912 Kansas City experienced its greatest snowstorm on record. 25” fell in 24 hours bringing the total snowfall there to more than 40” for March and 67” for the winter more than 4 times normal. Both the March and seasonal snowfall totals were records for Kansas City. Not far away in Olathe, KS 38” fell during that storm, a single storm state record.

Often times wave patterns develop in the high atmosphere, the strongest winds in these waves are represented by the jet stream. These waves in the air, like waves in the ocean, have high and low points over time and space. From a geographical perspective the high point usually supports high pressure and the low points low pressure or storms. On the western side of the high pressure or ridging it's usually warm and winds blow from the south, close to the center of the low point or trough of the wave there is storminess. When patterns like this develop to the extreme, with great definition contrast in the waves, in the wintertime there can be awesome extremes. One such extreme case happened On March 20, 1948. A trough or dip in the wave caused a massive storm to hit Alaska dumping heavy snow in Juneau, the states capitol, where 32.5” of snow fell the heaviest ever there from one storm. Meanwhile far to the east in the eastern part of the US, a ridge, or rise in the jet stream, resulted in record warmth across the Carolinas. In some places like Raleigh and Greensboro, NC the mercury barely dipped below 70 for a low temperature setting records for the warmest March night ever recorded there.

Dust from the Sahara Desert in Africa is the main source of dust in the atmosphere on a yearly basis across the world. The dust has its origins principally in the remains of centuries old dry lake beds, mainly in the country of Chad. This dust is presentient and often times lifts into the low atmosphere creating a general haze across north central Africa. Because of its presence, storms and seasonal, or trade winds often pick up huge amounts of the dust and dirt and send it thousands of miles away from Africa – sometimes halfway around the world. The presence of the dust in Hurricane season can often act as a deterrent to the formation of tropical systems suppressing the formation of water droplets and clouds. Sometimes this dust makes it all the west into the Caribbean. It can cause travel disruptions diverting aircraft and interfering with radio waves. The most pronounced visible manifestation of the dust is in Europe, often lifted high into the atmosphere from storms approaching the northwest coast of Africa or Portugal. The dust settles into the lower atmosphere causing red sunrises and sunsets – but sometimes it's washed out of the sky by rain and even more striking by snow. Such events, in the past, have resulted in superstitious approaches to the weather events. On March 10 1869 a reddish snow fell all day across central France. Some locals panicked because they thought it was colored in blood. Africans and scientists knew what the source of the red appearance was. The origin of the red color was the dust raised from the dry lake beds of Chad. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
On February 14, 1958 in Haleyville, AL 16” of snow fell, an extreme snow event for that area of the country. Because of the snow's high water equivalent, that is the total water content of the snow, the weight was extremely heavy and it caused many chicken coops in the poultry region to collapse leading to the crushing of many of the chickens inside. The coops were not constructed to withstand the heavy wet snow that fell, since the entire average winter's snowfall in the region was a mere 1-2”. Following the snow storm many chicken coops in the poultry rich region where rebuilt to higher standards. In the north, chicken coop building standards have been and remain much more sturdy due to snowfall. In addition in many places housing poultry that don't need coops, foul are kept in wire cages. The only impact is that when snow is heavy enough people must be called out to knock the snow off the wire confinements. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
