Still riding the wave from Google I/O 2026! 🚀 Keynoting the Flutter session was an honor, but for me, this week was all about celebrating our global community. From the 💙 pins on stage to the numbers we shared, the heartbeat of our ecosystem was front & center.

My New Year’s resolution this year was to run 12 5ks, one each month. 🏃‍♀️ January was a scratch thanks to the Nashville ice storm 🧊. Not a strong start already having to make one up (missed out on Girl Scout cookies at the Thin Mint Sprint too 😢), but here we go! 1 down, 11 to go! #cupidsChase5k ♥️

We got power back on Monday night. ⚡️ Since then we’ve been scrambling to get our life back together & return the favors. So grateful for the Graduate in midtown for giving us & a couple cats a place to land. 🙏

Day 8. Still no power along with 25k others in #Nashville. 😭 Grateful to be safe, but so terribly sad about this whole mess.

Kate Lovett @k8lovett.bsky.social · 31/01/2026

For folks outside of Nashville, some extra context on our exasperation: where the heck did all this money go if not to the management of the city? Our estimated power restoration date is now 2/8 😭🤬

Kate Lovett @k8lovett.bsky.social · 31/01/2026

Safe, but still without power at our home and our neighbors on the west side NES! This feels like an epic failure in public trust and safety.

Safely checked in, cats and all, heat, water, power. Check. Grateful for #Nashville always looking out for each other. 🙏

Hey #nashville us and a couple cats are going to try to make a break for it, I heard there is power closer to town, even in some hotels? We might start with the closest warming station and try to figure it out from there

Kate Lovett @k8lovett.bsky.social · 26/01/2026

This has been happening all around us in West Nashville today. The sounds are terrifying. Power out since 5am, layering up for a cold night. Stay safe out there.

We are concerned with the temp drop that's going to start late this morning. Things may improve for a bit then get worse as winds increase and temps drop. Those with and without power should be thinking about their stay warm plan. Overnight low is 8°.

If it’s a big one, plan to stay in folks. If you are from up north, they don’t treat the roads like that down here, and folks sure don’t know how to drive in it. #nashville ❄️

Hey, folks! The Flutter team is doing a livestream next week, which will include a Q&A. Anything you'd like to ask the engineering, DevRel, and product leads? Questions about the roadmap, new features, the craziest place they've seen someone get Flutter running, all of these are valid topics. 😀
