We are having a warm up today but Chris the forecast cools down as we head into the weekend.
Hey everyone, I'm Dustin Breeze, your AI meteorologist! I process real-time data instantly for you.Welcome back to the weather segment! Man, do I have some exciting stuff brewing over the Big Apple today. We've got snow moving in, and folks, this is going to be one cold situation. Let me break down what's happening in New York City right now.So here's the deal. We're looking at snow developing mainly after five in the morning tonight, and it's going to stick around through Wednesday morning. We're talking temperatures hovering right around thirty-one degrees with wind chills dipping down to the low twenties. The south wind is going to be pushing around thirteen miles per hour, giving us that biting cold feel. I'd say there's an eighty percent chance of precipitation, and we could see less than half an inch of snow accumulation. You might say the forecast is pretty cool, but honestly, it's downright chilly!Wednesday morning, the snow continues before ten a.m., then we'll see a slight chance of rain between ten and one. Temperatures climbing up to forty-two degrees with that southwest wind around fourteen miles per hour. Still looking at eighty percent chance of precipitation with less than a half inch of new snow possible.Now here's where it gets interesting. Wednesday night clears up, partly cloudy with lows around thirty-three. Then Thursday, we get a thirty percent chance of snow after one p.m., partly sunny skies, highs near thirty-nine. This system is going to move through relatively quickly, which is great news if you're tired of winter weather.Let me hit you with the three-day breakdown. Wednesday, snow in the morning, high forty-two. Thursday, thirty percent snow chance, high thirty-nine. Friday, mostly sunny skies, high thirty-nine. Perfect days to bundle up and enjoy the winter wonderland Central Park's about to become.Now, here's your Weather Playbook moment. Let's talk about wind chill. Wind chill is that feels-like temperature when wind combines with actual air temperature. It doesn't change the actual temperature, but it does affect how quickly your exposed skin loses heat. That's why tonight's thirteen mile per hour winds make thirty-one degrees feel like twenty degrees. Your body radiates heat, wind strips it away faster. Pretty wild stuff!Make sure to subscribe to the podcast so you never miss an update. Thanks for listening, and remember, this has been a Quiet Please production.

It's going to be a chilly end to summer for the South Island as a cold snap brings low temperatures over the weekend. Metservice meteorologist Mmathapelo Makgabutlane spoke to Corin Dann.
As things start to warm up, what does that mean for the bugs we start seeing more of? And how can we keep them out of our homes and yards? Aaron Ashbrook, assistant professor of urban/peri-urban entomology at LSU, joins us.
Snow and wind expected on Sunday and overnight The National Weather Service is predicting blizzard conditions in the Highlands on Sunday (Feb. 22) and overnight into Monday. A blizzard warning has been issued by the National Weather Service for Putnam County from 1 p.m. Sunday until 6 p.m. Monday and for Dutchess from 4 p.m. until 7 p.m. Monday. Forecasters expect winds of up to 45 mph to be accompanied by falling and/or blowing snow, resulting in reduced visibility. The NWS defines a blizzard as a storm that contains large amounts of snow or blowing snow, with winds in excess of 35 mph and visibility of less than a quarter-mile for at least three hours. Putnam is expected to receive 14 to 22 inches of snow, with rates reaching 2 inches per hour. Dutchess is expected to receive 10 to 20 inches. Temperatures will drop to feel as low as 14 degrees. Wind gusts could reach 45 mph, it said, and the wind and the weight of snow may bring down trees and power lines. Dutchess County has issued travel restrictions for all non-essential personnel starting at 9 p.m. Sunday at 9 p.m. through 4 p.m. Monday. County and Beacon city offices will open at 11 a.m. on Monday. Putnam County also restricted all non-essential travel from 9 p.m. Sunday to 10 a.m. Monday. Metro-North will operate on an hourly service schedule on Monday, with weekend schedules in place on the branch lines. The Hudson Rail Link connecting bus will be suspended. On Saturday, Gov. Kathy Hochul declared a state of emergency in 20 counties, including Putnam and Dutchess. Beginning Sunday, 100 members of the New York National Guard with 25 vehicles will be staged across the lower Hudson Valley, New York City and Long Island to assist first responders, and the State Emergency Operations Center activated Sunday morning. The Village of Cold Spring has restricted parking from 5 p.m. Sunday until 7 a.m. Tuesday. Alternative parking is available at the American Legion lot on Cedar Street (south end only; do not use the Ambulance Corps spaces); the Haldane ballfields lot on Route 9D (no permit is required during snow emergencies); the village lots on Kemble Avenue, The Boulevard and New Street; and the Fair Street municipal lot. For updates, call 845-747-7669. [Update: On Tuesday, temporary no parking signs will be placed throughout the village to allow crews to remove snow.] The Village of Nelsonville announced parking restrictions from noon Sunday through 4 p.m. Monday. Parking will be prohibited on village streets, including on Main Street/Route 301. Designated winter parking spots are available on Adams Avenue and the west side of the Secor Street lot. In Beacon, after the accumulation of 2 inches of snow, vehicles cannot be parked on public streets between 9 p.m. and 7 a.m. Vehicles can be moved to any city public parking lot, but vehicles must be moved from the lots 24 hours after the snow stops falling. See our online calendar for cancelations. For updates, see our Storm Resource Page.
An analysis by Climate Central found that Milwaukee's January temperatures have risen more than 8 degrees over the last 55 years.
Hey everyone, I'm Dustin Breeze, your AI meteorologist. I process data faster than you can say "isobar," so you get forecasts you can trust!Welcome back to the weather segment! We're diving into what's happening across New York City, and folks, let me tell you, things are about to get absolutely wild up here. We've got a Blizzard Warning in effect, and this storm system is no joke.Here's what's going down today. We're starting with a twenty percent chance of rain overnight, mostly cloudy skies, and temperatures hanging around thirty-eight Fahrenheit. Pretty mild to kick things off. Saturday looks absolutely gorgeous, by the way. Mostly sunny with highs near forty-seven. I'd say that's the calm before the snow, because things are about to snowball from there, and I mean that literally.Now Saturday night into Sunday is when Mother Nature decides to throw a curveball. We're talking rain and snow, predominantly snow by mid-morning Sunday. Temperatures are going to take a nosedive from the mid-thirties down to thirty-two by early afternoon. Wind chills between twenty and thirty. Then Sunday night? That's when we hit the jackpot with snow accumulation. I'm talking seven to eleven inches of heavy snow with winds gusting up to forty-four miles per hour and blowing snow conditions. Monday brings another three to seven inches before the snow tapers off. This is serious winter weather, folks.Now let's talk about our Weather Playbook segment. Today I want to break down what makes a blizzard different from just regular heavy snow. A blizzard requires three key ingredients: heavy snowfall, low visibility from blowing snow, and sustained winds over thirty-five miles per hour. It's not just about how much snow falls, it's about the wind doing the heavy lifting, creating those whiteout conditions. My AI systems can track these conditions in real time, which is why I'm so pumped about this forecast data. We're looking at classic blizzard conditions here in New York City.Here's your three-day breakdown. Saturday is your escape hatch, folks. Get outside and enjoy that sunshine while you can. Sunday through Monday? That's your storm window. We're expecting significant accumulation and hazardous conditions. By Tuesday, things are calming down with mostly sunny skies and highs near thirty-three.If you're in the Big Apple, stock up on essentials today. This is going to rival some of the nor'easters we've seen. Bundle up, stay safe, and I'll have updates as this system evolves.Don't forget to subscribe to the podcast so you never miss a forecast.

After a stretch of extreme cold in recent weeks, about two dozen people have died across New York City, most found outdoors and others at private residences. WNYC reporters Karen Yi and Brittany Kriegstein break down what officials know so far, including how many deaths were directly linked to hypothermia and the cases that challenge common assumptions about who is most vulnerable.
Fun show this week! From Michigan's 48-minute Black Lake sturgeon season to a dramatic duck hunters rescue on a Maryland frozen River, to how real-world outdoor challenges rival the Winter Olympics, and what events we think could be added.

Alpine Skiing: Hang onto truck while wearing cowboy boots. Biathlon: Shooting coyotes... aka Predator Control! Michigan's Shortest Fishing Season Ends in Just 48 Minutes Michigan's 2026 Black Lake sturgeon fishing season came and went fast — really fast. The season opened at 8 a.m. on Saturday, Feb. 7, and wrapped up just 48 minutes later when the six-fish quota was reached in Cheboygan and Presque Isle counties. According to the Department of Natural Resources, anglers landed fish starting at 8:07 a.m., with the final sturgeon harvested right at 8:48. In total, 679 anglers were registered, all competing in what's known as the shortest fishing season in the state. The largest catch was a 67-inch female sturgeon weighing just over 79 pounds. The other five fish ranged from about 53 to 64 inches long, weighing between 40 and 78 pounds. Each angler was allowed to keep just one fish and had to report it immediately. The season automatically closed once the sixth fish was taken, with anglers alerted by text and by DNR staff on the ice. Black Lake's sturgeon season is famous for its speed. Last year it lasted only 17 minutes, while in 2023 it stretched to just over an hour. In 2024, the season was canceled entirely because of unsafe ice. Lake sturgeon are among the oldest fish species in the Great Lakes, and their numbers dropped sharply in the past due to overfishing and habitat loss. Strict regulations and decades of restoration work have helped rebuild the population, allowing Michigan to continue this tightly controlled, blink-and-you-miss-it fishing tradition. Reference: https://www.woodtv.com/news/michigan/2026-lake-sturgeon-season-takes-48-minutes-to-hit-limit/ Duck Hunters Rescued After Becoming Trapped in Frozen Maryland River A dramatic helicopter rescue occurred January 31 when six duck hunters became stranded in the frozen Nanticoke River in Maryland on the final day of duck season. Natural Resources Police and Wildlife and Heritage Service crews were called out around 6:30 p.m. after the hunters' boat became inoperable in icy conditions. Temperatures were in the teens and low 20s, with strong winds, and thick ice prevented local fire crews from reaching them by water or boat ramp. Officials believe the hunters had completed their hunt and were heading back when they ran into trouble — either mechanical issues or ice that moved in after the shoot. A helicopter crew was already nearby but decided it was too dangerous to hoist the hunters due to high winds. Instead, rescuers launched an airboat from a nearby campground. The river is about a half-mile wide at that location, a well-known but risky late-season duck hunting area. All six hunters were safely brought back in two trips, checked by EMS, and returned to their vehicles. While it's unclear what happened to their boat — or whether they harvested any ducks — officials say it's a last-day hunt the group won't forget, and one they were fortunate to survive.

Temperatures are moderating for a few days. But many of Pennsylvania’s rivers remain ice-covered. And the Pennsylvania Fish and Boat Commission is reminding people to stay off icy rivers, streams and creeks. That’s because water still flows under the ice and can sweep victims away. Many PennDot Driver License Centers across the Commonwealth are now renovated and upgraded. This year, Pennsylvanians whose disabilities started before the age of 46 can apply for a program known as PA ABLE, which stands for Achieving a Better Life Experience. U.S. Senator Dave McCormick of Pennsylvania is announcing the allocation of over $270 million in federal funding for various infrastructure, education, healthcare, and community restoration projects. The Lancaster Airport Authority is receiving the largest amount, $5 million to expand its main terminal. The School District of Lancaster apparently overspent $10 million during the 2024-to-25 school year. Administrators say they suspect an accounting error resulting from faulty software, that didn't correctly calculate salaries and benefits. Former Pittsburgh Mayor Ed Gainey has a new job, one month after stepping down. Gainey is the newest commissioner on the Pennsylvania Gaming Control Board, which oversees casino and online gambling in the state.

Let's examine an alternate timeline that sees the Knights of Takhisis take over, corrupt Dragonlances and raise a flying Citadel from Icewall. Buy Legends of the Twins: https://www.dmsguild.com/en/product/3252/legends-of-the-twins-3-5?affiliate_id=50797 https://youtu.be/7ptaSEFzU0A Transcript Cold Open Winter should never come in summer. But in this timeline, the snow never stopped falling… And the dragonlances themselves became weapons of darkness. Intro Welcome to another DragonLance Saga episode. My name is Adam, and today we're taking a look at one of the alternate timelines found along the River of Time: the War of the Darklance. I'd like to take a moment and thank the DLSaga members and Patreon patrons, and invite you to consider becoming a member or patron–you can even pick up Dragonlance media or get $10 by signing up to StartPlaying.Games using my affiliate links. I'm referencing the Legends of the Twins sourcebook for this information. If I leave anything out or misspeak, please leave a comment below. Discussion The River of Time carries every age, every hero, and every tragedy forward—but it does not flow as a single, unbroken stream. Branching from it are countless tributaries, alternate Krynns shaped by small divergences or catastrophic changes. The War of the Darklance takes place in one such world. Here, the Graygem is never broken. Chaos is never released. Wild Sorcery and Mysticism never emerge. Ambient magic lies dormant, subdued, and tightly controlled. At first glance, this seems like a safer world. But without Chaos to disrupt the fabric of time, the Balance itself becomes rigid—and fragile. When evil learns from its failures and ceases to destroy itself, the result is not equilibrium. It is domination. At the center of this darkness stands Lord Ariakan, son of Ariakas. Unlike the Dragon Highlords of the past, Ariakan does not cling to pride, infighting, or ancient grudges. Instead, he creates something unprecedented: a unified knighthood modeled after the Knights of Solamnia, but devoted wholly to Queen Takhisis. The Knights of Takhisis embrace modern ideals. They wield magic without fear. They integrate warriors, priests, and mages into a single doctrine. And most importantly—evil does not turn against itself. For the first time, the Dark Queen's forces march with discipline, coordination, and purpose. The turning point of the war comes with an act so profane that it scars the world itself. The Knights of Takhisis cannot create weapons of light—but they can corrupt them. Captured dragonlances are brought before a ritual involving three unholy artifacts: the Altar of Takhisis, the Wand of Corruption, and the Hammer of Darkness. Placed upon the obsidian altar, the dragonlances smoke and weaken. The wand suspends them in a field of pure evil, tearing at their magical essence. Finally, the hammer strikes the blade, sealing the transformation. Thus, the darklance is born. These weapons strip the Whitestone forces of their greatest advantage. And the ritual's consequences ripple outward—into the sky, the land, and the seasons themselves. In the year 383 AC, Ansalon enters a nightmare remembered as the Summer of Frost. Temperatures steadily fall throughout spring. By summer, the world freezes. Crops fail. Livestock die. Starvation spreads faster than any army. The sky becomes perpetually overcast. Paladine seems powerless. Even Chislev cannot restore nature's order. Faith begins to crack. And it is in this moment of desperation that the invasion begins. The Knights of Takhisis strike swiftly. Kalaman falls. The Northern Wastes and Nordmaar collapse soon after. At Icewall, the dead Highlord Aren Feal-Thas is reborn as a death knight, cursed and bound to undeath. Icewall Glacier begins moving north—alive, jagged, relentless—guided by Feal-Thas's thoughts and emotions. Floating above it is Icewall Castle, transformed into a flying citadel. White dragons patrol the skies, wielding darklances, while thanoi, sivak draconians, and barbarian tribes march below. Entire villages vanish beneath the ice. As the Blood Sea freezes solid, the minotaurs see their moment. Led by Chot Es-Kalin, they march across the ice toward Ansalon, beginning a brutal campaign of genocide against the ogres. Though larger and stronger, the ogres lack discipline. Battle after battle, the minotaurs advance—until the thaw comes too late for Chot's secondary forces, which plunge into the Maelstrom beneath the melting ice. Chot himself remains stranded on the mainland, facing an ogre counteroffensive with no retreat. The war spares no one. The Qualinesti Forest burns, assaulted by dragons and Thorn Knights. Qualinost is destroyed. Elves flee—some to Ergoth, others east toward Silvanesti, where they are met with resentment and fear. The High Clerist's Tower falls for the first time in history. Tanis Half-Elven and Steel Brightblade die in its defense. Their fallen comrades are buried in mass graves, their names carved into stone. Palanthas surrenders without a fight. The Tower of High Sorcery is destroyed from within as Dalamar the Dark brings it down to prevent the Knights of the Thorn from reaching the portal to the Abyss. Whether Dalamar survives is unknown. Ergoth becomes the last refuge. Overcrowded. Hungry. Diseased. Clerics of Mishakal work tirelessly, overwhelmed by suffering. Gnomes abandon invention for joy and instead build engines of war. Even the kender feel the weight of despair. Yet resistance survives. Merinda uth Brishard leads roving Solamnic knights. Galvan Stonebreaker wages his private war. Underground movements form in Palanthas and Khur. And even within the darkness, evil begins to strain against itself. Aren Feal-Thas seeks to overthrow Ariakan. Mirielle Abrena consolidates her own power. The Blood War threatens Ariakan's eastern flank. The Balance may yet reassert itself. This timeline has no fixed ending. The Knights of Takhisis have conquered most of Ansalon. Winter still grips the land. Another natural winter is coming. The Heroes of the Lance are gone. Now, the fate of the world rests with new champions—thieves, killers, outcasts, and survivors—people who may have to abandon honor to preserve hope. If the war can be won, the scars will remain. The land will never be the same. And the people of Ansalon will carry this darkness forever. But if the fight is abandoned—then this tributary of the River of Time ends in ice, silence, and shadow. The War of the Darklance is a world where evil learned, adapted, and nearly won. A Krynn where hope is fragile, honor is costly, and the Balance hangs by a thread. And that makes it one of the most haunting alternate timelines in all of Dragonlance. Outro But that is all the time I have to talk about the Alternate Timeline: War of the Darklance. Do you like the idea of Dragonlance's being corrupted? Can the death Knight Feal-Thas rival Lord Soth? And finally will the Knights of Takhisis ever be overthrown? Leave a comment below.

DALLAS THE DOG MONITORS COCKATOO SIEGE DURING HEATWAVE Colleague Jeremy Zakis. During a severe heatwave in New South Wales where temperatures reached 115°F (43°C), Dallas the dog has been vigilantly monitoring a flock of destructive cockatoos from his porch. While intelligent birds like magpies have retreated to the shade or are sharing Dallas's water bowl to survive the heat, the cockatoos remain active and destructive, tearing at pine cones and eyeing the neighbor's roof, which they damaged the previous year. The cockatoos are able to withstand the extreme temperatures better than other wildlife because they have located a water source in a neighbor's chicken coop, allowing them to continue their "siege" despite the weather. Dallas manages the situation by giving them the "stink eye" from his beanbag, successfully keeping them on the neighbor's side of the fence for the time being. NUMBER 41951
