All Canadian tourists to the US to be thrown in jail and beaten, before letting them in

 

They won't even bother to look at the social media.  Every Canadian stores a thousand tumpy jokes.  It's our only amusement on cold, snowy nights.  Kimmel is our hero.  

ps and you only get let out if you publish "Donald Trump deserves every piece of Peace Tin thrown at him"

Dealing with the family videos

 35 years ago, I was a big fan on the camcorder.  I recorded everything, and then when the third kid came along, I just stopped.  Poor kid.  Anyway, 20 years ago I dusted off the old vcr and put them on svcd.  They are horrible and nobody watches them.

Now, on Linux, I have discovered Real Video Enhancer which uses local Artie to improve the video.  Does a great job extracting detail, and upscaling.  Runs a whole week on my Ryzen 5 mini computer.

I am so happy, that I'll do all of them, and bought a new Ryzen 7 minicomputer, at the old price before Artie insanity.  I looked a long time to find someone who forgot to double the price.  Hopefully, this will be faster.  

Small cold lunge in the mid-west

 

This last Pacific Plume has pushed a lot of warm air over the mountains, and given Whistler lots of snow.  However, we see a small lunge of cold air pushing down into the US mid-west.  Lots of snow there, as well.  

The Arctic is in full recharge, with no flow going anywhere.  However, the 'creep of black' continues to come down to us.  We'll see that the Arctic basin is full when Greenland turns white.

It's just a big swirly mess.  Recharge time is always unknown.  As well, the flow direction is also a probability thing.

ps the carbon business seems to on the skids.  Mama, don't let your kid get into it.

ps first snow cleared 6 inches of wet lead.  I have a nice gas snowblower.

Those in California can use it as a screensaver.
