    Sort of a nasty mix of mostly sleet with some freezing rain. Roads suck.

    Oh look, it trended to dogsh*t. Winter of ‘22 rolls on.

    Meh, the whole debt weapon thing is overblown if you ask me. I mean, if they tried to dump a trillion in treasuries all at once they’d probably get 50 cents on the dollar, which I doubt they want. In a scenario where the US and China are at war, I’d have to imagine that treasuries would still be the preferred safe haven asset, so the demand would be deeper than normal.

    Of course he doesn't.

    Did the Ukrainians have a revolution in 2013 to kick out the Russian puppet regime and establish closer trade ties with the EU?

    There was a pretty substantial period when Britain was all alone. France was occupied and the U.S. had not entered the war.

    I hope they give them hell, even if they are facing a superior force.

    Would you have advocated the same of Churchill when the Germans were sitting across the English Channel?

    I don't disagree. I hope it doesn't come to that. I don't much care for the idea of being drafted. Knees are getting a little creaky in my late 30s.

    I seem to recall that we drove them into those caves. No military is made for endless occupation and ceaseless insurgent guerilla warfare. When we've sent our boys in en masse, we generally are quite effective at taking territory.

    That was truly disgusting. Absolutely unforgivable.

    Strange echoes of the thirties. We had our near miss with a depression in '08, followed by a decade of growing civil discord all over the world. Now, possibly, a major war. Let's hope not.

    Ballistic missiles are striking control centers in Kyiv.

    IMO, this is where you need leaders with real backbone. Putin senses weakness in the West. They've been appeasing and appealing to diplomacy and instituting weak sanctions. Guys like Putin only respect force.

    Maybe, but if France and Germany are involved, it rapidly becomes a NATO issue.

    China is watching how this unfolds to see whether we'll do anything about Taiwan. The world order is going to be tested.

    Looks like that Russian son of a bitch is going into Ukraine tonight in earnest. This could get out of hand quickly.

    Yeah, been busting my hump at work. Haven't had much time to check in. 4-8" would be great and get me solidly above climo for the season.

    Wait, wtf? Am I in the game? I figured this was a sleet to rainer down here.
  21. Hoth
    Goody gumdrops.

    I agree. That was an amazing ten minutes. Lowest visibility I’ve ever seen from snow.
  23. Hoth
    Dude, this is insane. It came in so fast. It's like that fog in Game of Throne when the White Walkers are approaching. Unreal.
  24. Hoth
    Holy shit. This is the highlight of my winter. Heaviest snow I’ve ever seen. Just instant wall.

    Dark sky, wind starting to roar.
