Ugh this one hurts. Jane Goodall was a beacon of light and hope in our dark world of climate change and planetary destruction. She taught us so much about animals and their intelligence and compassion. Rest in Peace Dr. Goodall. 1934-2025

Messy/low confidence forecast day. Line of storms coming through metro next 1-2 hours. Will it dampen severe threat later? Depends how quick we can clear out… potential for nasty evening storms @mprnews.org

Our beloved 16 year old Freyja, Norse goddess & literal party animal (she loved everyone & was the center of attention) is in hospice. We are enjoying last days with her as her old kidneys have failed. She loves the sun & this day was made for her. 💔🥹🥺

This week’s January heat wave has almost erased temperature deficits for January. We’ll end up just -0.5 deg F from the modern average for January temps, which is still +3.5 deg F warmer than a century ago for January. @bringmethenews.bsky.social @mprnews.org
