To celebrate the New Year, this weekend I enjoyed a fantastic desert hike at sunrise and I spent a bunch of time making a video about the experience. It was wonderful to get back in the groove of both activities again. #hiking #desert youtu.be/zHKUE0IRAHE

It's been a while since I've included a hiking video on my YouTube channel. I put together an episode with a couple of my latest hikes. I hope you enjoy it! We all need to step away from outside, get outside, and enjoy Mother Nature. #hiking youtu.be/E0dLlx7QoaM

Wow. Avelo airlines has covered up their logo to hide the fact that they're helping with mass deportation. Avelo's customer service number is (346) 616-9500. Feel free to give them a call and tell them how you feel about them.

Tropical Depression One-E has formed south of Mexico and is forecast to strengthen to a tropical storm this evening or Thursday morning. We'll want to track this one as its remnant moisture could push toward the Southwest U.S. this weekend. #CAwx #AZwx #NVwx

Our weather here in Phoenix will become active come late Saturday through early Monday as low pressure parks itself over our region. This help help to usher in moisture from TS #Alvin which is currently located South of Baja California. #azwx #Phoenix

On the bright side, I'm hoping the weekend weather forecast, giving us a little taste of monsoon season, provides for a decent storm chasing opportunity #azwx

Reading the elation over the rumor that Apple is moving to a year-based versioning system (like Windows 95) is making me cranky. 1. Apple used to be better than that 2. It's obvious that the marketing department calls all the shots at Apple now 3. It's a blatant shove to get people to buy more

My voice sounded a little under the weather when I went on this hike. I had planned on hiking in the snow, but the Pima Co. Sheriff closed the roads to all except residents and employees in Summerhaven. So I focused on the warmer landscapes instead. #hiking www.youtube.com/watch?v=XP4K...

In the grand scheme of all that’s happening throughout the United States at the moment, it’s looking like Apple’s “Gulf of America” on Apple Maps is a bit lower on the irritation scale. Gosh, that whole Gulf of America thing (it’s still the Gulf of MEXICO) seems like a year ago.

Less reliable forecasts from NOAA/NWS due to budget cuts = less reliable forecasts for aviation, which when coupled with wild safety scale backs at FAA due to budget cuts should make for a hoot and a half

We are back east for some family business. Lake effect snow is moving in over Lake Ontario, so naturally we drove up there and stood on the lake shore in 30 kts winds with waves crashing and snow whipping. The storm chaser in me loved every moment. I’ll put together a short video soon.

No, the meeting did not go badly for Ukraine. It exposed in the most undeniable, unequivocal way possible the pro-Putin commitments of the president and vice president. That was information Americans and allies needed to have clear before them.
