Really, really lovely cumulonimbus action tonight! I just happened to have my drone in the car and got some solid shots of DT Seattle/Lake Washington/Mercer Island/Bellevue looking north from Skyway. Alas, the focal length of the lens doesn't do the vertical height justice and my WB was off rendering it into semi-gross HDR territory, but still... fun looking weather! It was quite windy- I was flying right at 390 ft and the drone was giving me all sorts of warnings about sustained winds/gusts.
A most incredible snow storm. At times the snowfall rates have been as heavy or slightly heavier than January 2017. Temp 27.5, Dewpoint: 27.1 with gusty east wind and very heavy snow continuing. I'm at 11 1/2" now! UNBELIEVABLE!!!! This pic does no justice at all.

The 'special sauce' is the post-processing, normalization and weighting that they d

Really the only way to handle BLM or now Pro Hamas/Palestinian demonstrators is with skull crushing force. Even NYC mayor Eric Adams is speaking out about the thuggery and malevolent intent of these rioters. Many are speculating the pro Palestine groups may soon begin resorting to terror attacks. We recently had a pro Palestinian self immolate. Next time it very well may be a suicide bomb in a crowded public place with large numbers of children.
