Buffalo-based folk duo Sally Schaefer (fiddle, vocals) and Tyler Bagwell (guitar, vocals) breathe fire into folk songs old and new, including a treasure trove of Americana, Celtic, and Erie Canal music. Sally is a well-known ethnomusicologist and musician around the Western New York area, appearing with numerous bands and recording for various projects representing an array of musical genres. Tyler is an award-winning historian and patchwork songwriter with a busker's voice in search of couplets within the notion that "history rhymes." Together, they invent and reinvent songs highlighting events, people, and places of local and national note. For larger shows, they often play with the addition of bass and drums as folk-rock band The Travesties. Tyler and Sally visited the Flamingo Lounge on January 14, 2026 for an engaging session telling stories and discussing their newest projects and sharing live renditions of some of their new music.

On the show today, with winter weather impacting much of Western New York, we ask the question, do you think people in Western New York have gotten soft when it comes to dealing with the weather? Like closing down schools or other institutions, has the threshold for doing so gotten too low? Also, while we're talking about the weather, we check in with meteorologist Andy Parker to give us the lay of the land in Western New York as far as the weather is concerned.

Many of your cellular devices may have seen their network bars replaced by the letters 'SOS', thus rendering your device useless, unable to place or receive calls and texts.

We also keep tabs on the weather situation in Western New York, with the region being under a winter weather warning, we check in with meteorologist Andy Parker for an update on that.

As of the posting of this podcast, Western New York is currently under a winter weather warning, which will last until late Thursday, and early Friday in some spots. Meteorologist Andy Parker joins the show to give us all the latest on the weather.

The principal focus of this morning's briefing is the severe weather conditions impacting various regions across the United States, including blizzard warnings in Alaska and flood watches in Alabama and Mississippi. I commence by outlining the alarming forecasts, which predict whiteout conditions and gusts of wind reaching up to 65 miles per hour in parts of Alaska, while Western New York is bracing for similar high wind warnings. Furthermore, central Alabama and southwest Mississippi are under flood watches due to anticipated heavy rainfall, with projections of up to four inches, potentially leading to flash flooding. Additionally, I address the postponement of the reopening of FEMA's Bethel Assistance Hub, which has been delayed once more due to adverse weather conditions. Lastly, I highlight the recent magnitude 4.0 earthquake near Adak, Alaska, as part of the ongoing situational updates.Takeaways:* Blizzard warnings are currently in effect in parts of Alaska, predicting severe weather conditions.* Western New York is experiencing high wind warnings, which pose risks to travel and infrastructure.* Flood watches have been issued for central Alabama and southwest Mississippi due to anticipated heavy rainfall.* Minnesota's governor has mobilized the National Guard in response to local law enforcement needs for safety.* California is under wind advisories and freeze warnings, indicating hazardous conditions across various regions.* Wisconsin faces potential flooding as heavy rain interacts with an existing deep snowpack.Sources[NWS Birmingham | https://www.weather.gov/bmx/]; [NWS Flood Watch text | https://forecast.weather.gov/wwamap/wwatxtget.php?cwa=usa&wwa=flood+watch][NWS Alaska WWA | https://forecast.weather.gov/showsigwx.php?firewxzone=AKZ948&product1=Blizzard+Warning][FEMA Bethel Hub update | https://www.fema.gov/press-release/20260108/reopening-bethel-assistance-hub-postponed-due-inclement-weather][USGS M4.0 Adak | https://earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/eventpage/us7000rnm4][NWS San Diego WWA text | https://forecast.weather.gov/wwamap/wwatxtget.php?cwa=usa&wwa=wind+advisory][NWS Los Angeles/Oxnard WWA text | https://forecast.weather.gov/wwamap/wwatxtget.php?cwa=usa&wwa=wind+advisory][MN Governor | https://mn.gov/governor/newsroom/press-releases/?id=1055-719092][City of Minneapolis | https://www.minneapolismn.gov/news/2026/january/jan-7-statement/][NWS Jackson (MS) Flood Watch text | https://forecast.weather.gov/wwamap/wwatxtget.php?cwa=usa&wwa=flood+watch][NWS ABQ AFD & watches/warnings | https://forecast.weather.gov/product.php?format=ci&glossary=1&issuedby=ABQ&product=AFD&site=NWS&version=1][NWS Winter Storm Warning text | https://forecast.weather.gov/showsigwx.php?firewxzone=NMZ206&product1=Winter+Storm+Warning][NWS Buffalo High Wind Warning | https://forecast.weather.gov/showsigwx.php?product1=High+Wind+Warning&warnzone=NYZ011][NWS State College (CTP) WWA text | https://www.weather.gov/wwamap/wwatxtget.php?cwa=ctp&wwa=all][NWS Green Bay Flood Watch text | https://forecast.weather.gov/wwamap/wwatxtget.php?cwa=usa&wwa=flood+watch][AP | https://apnews.com/article/5eeffe06106f711b8a17f6072ad9b53d][Reuters | https://www.reuters.com/world/us/us-federal-agents-shot-two-people-portland-abc-affiliate-reports-2026-01-08/][KATU/WLOS | https://wlos.com/news/nation-world/protests-outside-portland-ice-facility-after-federal-agent-shoots-injures-2-people] This is a public episode.
