Additional atmospheric rivers are expected to impact the West later this month. Given the significant river flooding already impacting Washington and Oregon, a continued risk of flooding and landslides is expected across the region through at least late December.

TIL about a memorial ceremony in Iceland in 2019 to mark the end of a glacier, changing the place name from Okjökull to Ok (jökull = glacier). Uncompromising wording on the bronze plaque: "This is to acknowledge that we know what is happening and what needs to be done. Only you know if we did it".

I'm not saying I'm rich, but.... @mdaware.org

Bird is the word.

You're at home listening to relatives all week, maybe you need something to help pass the time. www.amazon.com/We-Defy-Chap...

Sometimes I think it’s going to be the librarians who will save us all.

This is a very good tweet. @mdaware.org

If you aren’t thinking Klebsiella, you even board studying bro? #EMsky

When intubating with VL, the cords should be as far away as possible, while still visible. Large cords=close camera=blocked tube delivery. #EMsky #EMS @mdaware.org @joshkimbre.bsky.social

Quite the lede: "The U.S. Coast Guard will no longer classify the swastika, an emblem of fascism and white supremacy inextricably linked to the murder of millions of Jews and that more than 400,000 U.S. troops died fighting against in World War II, as a hate symbol, according to a new policy..."

reverse it on the way out so it doesn’t yank the tube

You swooping? With videoscope, stylet tip should go down, horizontal, up. People often don't go posterior enough, so don't have room to rotate anterior toward vocal cords. Swoop! #EMsky #emergencymedicine #FOAMed @joshkimbre.bsky.social @mdaware.org

It's that time of year, when I really want to talk about Nakatomi Spaces.

It cannot be remembered enough that these were the same people who got worked up about drag brunches

If sandwich shops don’t start offering a sandwich named “the acquittal” then what are we even doing

Kinda proud of how these came out. You you gonna call? #halloween #jack-o’-lantern #Ghostbusters

New Yorkers vote today if you haven’t and you get this

When infection control be lurking to see if you washed. I see you. #EMsky

Very cool study using high speed cameras to study the kinematics of venemous snake bites, paper includes videos! (Profiled in NYT). #wildmed journals.biologists.com/jeb/article/...

Keep it classy, NYC. And rep that toxicology. @georgehahn.com

I know I’m not the first to point out some of these decorations, but sharks are…cartilaginous. Soooo

I’m not sure why that dude is so in favor of these weasels outbreaks, but here we are.

With the northeaster important reminder: if you are cold, they are cold. Bring 'em inside. (no, not really). #Wildmed

Everyone wants to be a gangster until it’s time to do smoothbore stuff.

No kinks, no problem. #firefighters

Ok, maybe peak dad but I’ve started replacing my own watch batteries! Saved like $50 bucks so far.

We have lox a legend. Zabar's is the best.

I grew up going to Zabar's. So many of my childhood memories center around the best lox in NYC (which is saying something). With Saul Zabar's passing today, the Upper West Side has lost a legend who turned his parent's humble store into a culinary institution.

The most impressive explosion I ever encountered was a 30lb. propane tank on a forklift that BLEVE'D inside a large tilt-up concrete warehouse that was on fire. Thankfully, we had gone defensive and were outside. I did say something. I don't think it was, "hmmmmm," though! 😱😬😁

Things that make #firefighters go "hmmmmm" @fyreman2006.bsky.social @scottculkin.bsky.social

Saw upstate in the fire museum. Want.

I wrote about Kash Patel's cringe, weird challenge coin. Perfect for him: www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

quick while the government is shut down let’s all switch to metric

This is why we have parties in NYC, for the human Rumbas to come.

Hey #EMS people, myself and another EMS doc are going to be doing a CME on how NYC approaches MCIs, it's 9/30/25 at 1900 EST, virtual or in person at Glen Cove Hospital. Shoot me a DM if you want the link. #FOAMed #EMSsky

How your email finds me.

ACOG reaffirms that acetaminophen is safe for managing pain and fever during pregnancy. No reputable studies support suggestions like those in HHS’s recent announcement linking acetaminophen use in pregnancy to autism; in fact, high-quality studies show no such risk. https://bit.ly/47Wxc59

One of my favorite NYC history things, the glass in the old sidewalks to allow light into basements.

It can be hard to train #wildmed in the city, so sometimes you gotta get creative.

The happy place doing happy things. #firefighters

There’s a way to be respectful in reporting on Charlie Kirk being shot while also refusing to whitewash who he was and what consequences his political activism has had. Obituaries for public figures are a part of history.

Protip for #EMS fellows/docs: sometimes it’s worth spending your own money for protective equipment. The Gucci gear is so choice.

In honor of fashion week, new lung just out. All gas, steal that look! All you have to do is ban vaccines! @altnoaa.bsky.social

New sick fits just dropped for the #antivax crowd, get for the holidays! @funnysnarkyjoke.bsky.social

Weird how the news is reminding me of this great exhibit from a few years ago, I think at the Museum of City of New York. This is the future they want. Vaccines cause adults. #vaccines

I’m just a girl, who did a spinal tap on a preschooler last week, asking you to fire RFK Jr.

Can I pivot from an EM/EMS feed to EMS/EM/dog photos?

Better red than dead. #methemoglobinemia
