I think he’s getting off too easy. And catastrophe video is big buisness - go after the media distributors that make money off drone operators, storm chasers, etc., who generate this content. https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/montreal/guilty-plea-drone-strike-water-bomber-1.7447371

-8°F calm winds and clear sky at 1pm on Keystone Ridge. Still a bit hazy, but very bright sunshine. Only 6 weeks past solstice and we can make 1kw on our small PV array — if the clouds align. Also, Main KL4TQ wx station is malfunctioning - rain has not been kind to it. Taking it down for repair. #MyAlaskaWx

-17°F, overcast, calm winds and light snow mist on Keystone Ridge at 12:30pm. Note to self, to avoid nature’s Zamboni, don’t plow before it rains. Let the new snow suck up the rain, then plow the slush once it gets ~10°F below freezing. #myalaskawx

34°F, overcast, calm winds, and fog at 9:30am on Keystone Ridge. Rain occasionally mixed with snow. 0.47” liquid precip in the last 24hrs. Slushpack remains at 25” as rain soaks in and water content increases. #myalaskawx

32°F, overcast with snow - occasionally heavy at 10am on Keystone Ridge. Overnight accumulation of 1.5” of wet snow with rain. Temp peaked at about 6:30am at 36°F. Judging from distribution of calls for service — mostly MVCs, slippery roadways were worse on the west side. Minimal GVEA outages - so far. #MyAlaskaWx #RainInWinter

Desert was nice, but good to be back. 25°F, overcast with fog and calm wind on Keystone Ridge at 1600. 2.5” snow accumulation in the last 24hrs with 25” snowpack on the ground. Melting two precip gauges’ accumulation and will enter the last ~ month’s SWE into CoCoRaHS. #MyAlaskaWx

Although the EPA restrictions impacted public infrastructure the current root cause of poor air quality in Fbks isn’t highways or inversions. The root cause is individual people who don’t care about their neighbors’ and their own health. Over the years Fairbanks has stopped functioning as a community and been replaced by clusters of selfish islands. EPA can’t fix that. #TragedyOfTheCommons #sorry https://alaskabeacon.com/2025/01/07/epa-plans-to-lift-air-pollution-sanctions-that-paused-fairbanks-construction-projects/?emci=e85fee1c-6fcd-ef11-88d0-0022482a9d92&emdi=4bce624f-d1cd-ef11-88d0-0022482a9d92&ceid=571388

How bad are basic State of Alaska services? Not only is the state laying off public health nurses, but once your family member has died, and reduced the surplus population, the State of Alaska has a backlog processing Death Certificates. https://www.dermotcole.com/reportingfromalaska/2025/1/1/alaskans-deserve-a-clear-report-from-dunleavy-on-decline-in-state-services
