Oh. That's a Canon EOS 1D Mark IV with the old 70-200mm EF f2.8 IS USM lens, back about 2011 or so

I'll just drop this in on the top-level post for those interested in more info
A Duck-Duck search for 'ABC7' returned the LA TV station's web page which has more info
"Federal agents clash with protesters after immigration raid at farm near Camarillo"
The auto-play video is, of course, just noise
The web page itself is better than nothing. I suppose...

Dry upper level trough moving down from the north going through the area later today. Narrow high amplitude upper level ridge just offshore extending north along the British Columbia coast into Alaska keeping dry cool northerly flow aloft going into Wednesday. Record low temperatures possible the next couple of mornings. Pattern breaks down Wednesday night with an upper level low weakening and moving into Oregon Thursday night into Friday. Precipitation associated with the low could get as far north as the Puget Sound area Thursday night into Friday.
Organized front arriving from the west over the weekend moderating the air mass

Last thing I saw here yesterday, central Puget Sound / Vashon Island, was an absolutely astonishing hail storm right before nightfall yesterday that covered everything in white like a snow squall, even filling in the grass
That was it, and now that's all melted off and it's raining lightly

I may not do more that one of these, but at first light (now Sunday 02/02/2025 07:53:28 PST) central Puget Sound / Vashon Island @ ^ 300 feet above sea level:
Snowing. Side road completely covered, main two-lane road I can see has two melted car tracks and a snowy center line. Not sticking on the grass yet. Sticking on well-insulated roof tops
KLGX Doppler radar out at Copalis Beach WA in Precipitation Depiction mode has patchy snow bands coming onshore, southwest --> northeast trending
KATX Doppler at Camino Island shows pretty much the same
Both Cascade Mountain passes (I-90 Snoqualmie and US 2 Stevens) currently open with traction tires required, compact snow and ice, overcast only at the moment
Off we gooo...

Ah, OK, interesting
Don't pay much attention to any of them, but I'll keep this in mind
Thnx...

If this is as bad as all this nonsense gets, I can live with it
It's when the NWS goes offline entirely and we're all forced onto the Weather Channel that I may just completely freak out

Took a bit of thinking and hunting, but there it is
Fitting somehow that it first shows up on a forecast for #Texas

I have FediDB open in a tab daily
Some time ago I noticed a formatting change (really it was done with the time distribution) whereby in a browser tab, full screen HD 32" monitor, the top page, lead graphs were all virtually flat lines
Just thought to myself 'who would want this data portrayed in such an uninformative way?' but I see now it was reformatted for phones, because as we all know, *everyone* views the web through an "app" on their phones
Docktorow really needs a re-write to discuss the "enappification of the Internet"
That "enshitification" shchtick is so 2000s

"CenterPoint Energy: "“The storm veered off the originally expected course and more heavily impacted the company's customers, systems and infrastructure than previously anticipated,”"
huh...
Could have sworn I was watching the projected storm track pretty closely at nhc.noaa.gov for days and days and don't seem to recall much of a "veered off the originally expected course"
What did I miss?

We're still a ways out but it's looking like Galveston will be in the NE / 12:00 pm - 3:00 pm quadrant as Beryl (whatever-it-is) comes ashore
