Even more of the United States is now coming under extreme winter weather warnings. The warnings stretch more than 2000 miles, from Santa Fe in the Rockies all the way east and north to Boston along the Atlantic coastal shores.
Heaviest snowfall totals are projected for the Mid Atlantic states as well as the Midwest states lining the Ohio River — Ohio, Kentucky, Indiana, Illinois onto Missouri. Heavy snow will fall between I-40 and I-70, with the Midwest states likely receiving at least a foot of snow. Snowfall totals will increase as the storm — dubbed Winter Storm Fern — approaches the Atlantic Ocean, entering Pennsylvania, New York and New England. The snow could pile up as much as two feet in some locales.
The South won’t get whacked by snow, but faces potentially deadly ice storms that could bring down grown trees and powerlines, while sending citizens shivering in homes reeling without energy. The ice will stretch eastward from Texas and Oklahoma, encompassing much of Arkansas, Tennessee and Georgia, including the city of Atlanta. Snow already began falling Friday night in the Texas Panhandle, with expectations for ice to slam into Dallas and Tulsa.
Brutal cold weather will aggravate conditions as winds from Canada push chilling temperatures southward. The storm will linger through Sunday, although cold weather will remain entrenched over much of this vast region on Monday and Tuesday. So travel isn’t advised. Best to hunker down at home, and be sure to have supplies of food, water, batteries and life-saving gear.
Here’s a short, but comprehensive report from CBS News. Best to check your local stations for up-to-the-minute news and forecasts for your vicinity.
When It Snows in Texas. Here’s an iconic look at a Panhandle panic from the cartoon King of the Hill. The town of Arlen doesn’t exist, but it’s based on King of the Hill creator Mike Judge’s memories of growing up in Texas, and specifically, the suburbs around Dallas and Ft. Worth.
The winter storm brewing for this weekend could be the worst weather event we’ve seen across the United States in more than a decade. Ryan Hall says the storm will bring dangerous ice to the South and blanket much of the Midwest and Northeast with a heavy coat of snow this weekend. As many as 30 states are likely to be affected.
Evidence of the storm will be visible first across Texas and Oklahoma, beginning Friday but gaining in intensity overnight through Saturday. Ice storms will wreak those states as well as Arkansas. North of that, there will be intense snowfalls, from Missouri east to New York and Connecticut.
Arctic air will follow with life-threatening wind chills throughout the continental United States. Here’s more from Ryan Hall, Y’all.
Heavily rumored for the past few days, FBI Deputy Director Dan Bongino has announced he’s leaving the agency in January and returning to his popular Rumble podcast. Bongino announced his departure in a post on X.
There has been no reason announced for the departure, but speculation has focused on how Attorney General Pam Bondi has handled the release of the Jeffrey Epstein documents.
No announcement also has been made yet on who will replace Bongino at the FBI, but the New York Post cited an unnamed source who claimed that Andrew Bailey would be given the post. Bailey is the former Attorney General for the state of Missouri and has been assisting Bongino at the FBI for the past year.
Here’s more from Hayley Caronia, who has operated her Nightly Scroll since Bongino left the podcast.
California Assembly Member Alexandra Macedo, a Republican from Tulare, is openly mocked by the state’s Democratic legislators, who refuse any transparency whatsoever in explaining the state’s heavily gerrymandered congressional districts.
The Democrats squawk like bloody hell in Texas, but the nation’s most bizarre gerrymandering can be found in the leftist Democratic states, including California, New York and Illinois. What’s good for the goose should be good for the gander. Time to redistrict Texas, Ohio, Indiana, Missouri and other states to cut the Democrats down to mincemeat size. Here’s more from Memology 101.
Four alien species have been revealed by a congressman, and artificial intelligence allegedly created “new physics” that works. Join Ben Chasteen and Rob Counts on this Edge of Wonder Live to hear all about it.
Nearly every human on the planet has asked themselves, “Are we alone in the universe?” It now seems that politicians in Washington want answers about who or what are behind numerous UFO/UAP sightings.
On a recent podcast, Rep. Eric Burlison, a Missouri Republican serving as a member of the House Oversight Committee, said he attended a meeting where they discussed four main alien types, with the greys and reptilians both being mentioned.
Of course, we can’t discuss aliens without mentioning the advanced technology associated with them. Researchers are now finding that AI programs are creating new physics experiments that seem to push beyond our current understanding and boundaries of science. In the words of Morpheus, “Some rules can be bent, others can be broken.”
Missouri Attorney General Andrew Bailey is suing China for $25 billion in damages connected to its role in the COVID-19 pandemic.
Missouri cites new evidence from the CIA that says the Wuhan lab leak theory is the most likely cause of the pandemic. So, will China finally pay?
Bailey explains that if he wins and China, which has not been cooperative, refuses to pay, he has a backup plan: Seize Chinese-owned assets in America, including farmland. Here’s more from Glenn Beck on Blaze TV.
