Those of us at the northernmost edge of #WinterStorm #Fern will be feeling a mighty big shift in downwards #temperature. We are currently at #ZeroDegrees and quickly heading to -15 at approximately midnight.
Please, #BePrepared , no matter where you live. This could wreak some serious damage. Our local #forecast doesn't call for it to be quite as severe as 2019's #PolarVortex, but that's not really great news either.
Here's a map summary page for those of you who are in the potential path of #Winter #Storm #Fern
Winter #IceStorms aren't new to us in the north, and our infrastructure here is geared to tolerate them, but they can be far worse than massive #SnowStorms to all of us, regardless of our geographical location.
Folks die from the 'fallout' of the storm, not just the storm itself.

We are expecting snow this weekend. Anywhere from 1-24” that starts either Sat or Sunday and may or may not be followed by rain.
Yesterday I rotated and refilled our family emergency kit with food and basic supplies. I plan to add to it a little at a time. I also wrote down the expiry dates so I can watch for those coming up and rotate them out before they expire. #BePrepared #NZCivilDefence
Heading out for a haircut. A coffee may be had as celebration (and I have my book in case of that occurrence). #BePrepared
As humans, we have the terrific capability of learning from the experience of others through empathy, kindness, and wisdom… Look at our beloved friends who suffer unimaginable hell… yet are still around and still endure… Be grateful for what you have. Always, always advocate for peace — but don't be naive. Also, always, always be ready for any and every eventuality. #Empathy #Kindness #Wisdom #Gratitude #Peace #Resilience #BePrepared 💚 🙏 🔥
Each year begins with Ian Bremmer and the Eurasia Group listing and describing the top ten risks of the year. It is a lot to read, you could disagree with some of it, but after reading it you will be well-informed:

We're going out today. As the weather in Denmark is cold, windy and potentially snowy I'm bringing some simple "emergency" comfort items like water and banana.
Toddler caught on and is making their own. There's a toy duck, puzzle, fake coffee can etc. #BePrepared :-)
🛡️ The SAFE Checklist Match It Game helps Scouts learn important safety skills. 🌟 They match scenarios to the four SAFE points and talk through how to stay safe in real activities. It fits well for Webelos, Arrow of Light, and Scouts BSA. 💪 A simple, active way to build strong safety habits and prepare for outdoor fun.
Safety doesn’t begin in panic — it begins with preparation.
Just a few seconds. A few taps.
And help can already be on the way 🚔✨
Two phone tricks. One powerful purpose — your safety. 🚨
Emergency SOS + India 112 = support when it matters most.
Set it up today.
Save this post. Share it forward.
Because one day, it might protect someone you care about 🤍

First possibility of a real winter storm tonight still only looks like it'll give us a little bit of snow.
That being said, today and tomorrow involve a LOT of back and forth driving on back roads out here, & also through Philly into NJ.
Definitely a smart idea to take a few minutes to check the truck.
⛈️ The What Would You Do? Weather Safety Game helps Scouts learn by doing! 🌤️ They act out real-life weather situations—storms, heat, or snow—and decide what to do to stay safe. 💪 It’s fun, flexible, and builds confidence while reinforcing the Scout Law: being brave, helpful, and prepared for any forecast.

Aan het experimenteren, ik vind de klank van mijn piano te fel. Dit is met zijde ertussen. #BePrepared
