Russia confirmed on Wednesday that two of its Tu-95 bombers flew over waters near Alaska. The Tu-95s flew for about 9 hours and were escorted by SU-30SM fighters.

If you're not cutting your own, that's what $350 looks like, plus $50 for delivery.

Whenever I read your thread title I get a mental image of grizzled Marty McFly and Doc Brown wearing furs standing next to a sled pulled by a husky named Einstein.

The sky, yesterday morning.

I know that's an oil or gas platform, but from this angle it reminds me of a galleon era sailing ship with most of the masts struck down for bad weather that got ice bound after the storm.

The rig is gone. Would have to look up exactly where it is in the inlet

Doesn't matter to me. Beautiful sky, by the way.

From the APD:

"Thursday, February 22, 2024, at 7AM:
The roads are gross.
All those nice dry main roads we had yesterday are gone. After a night of almost no sleep due to howling winds that made all of us think our houses were going to be ripped off their foundations and whisked away to the land of Oz, someone turned on the snow faucet at around 4AM. Several inches of heavy wet white cement showed up in about two hours. It’s the kind of mess that yanks your tires all over the roadway and forces you into other lanes without your permission. Even in all-wheel drive.
You are going nowhere quickly this morning. Be extra careful. It’s one of those days where you know you’re sitting in the driver’s seat of your car, but it feels like someone else is steering. Someone who is in no condition to drive.
Fake spring is gone."

Wanna big moose? Denali National Park has them.
