Well, on the bright side, at least it was exceptionally sunny 🙃

March 27, 1964 - a M9.2 subduction #earthquake struck southern #Alaska. Shaking was felt across much of #BritishColumbia and Yukon and the resulting #tsunami caused damage in some coastal BC communities. Details (USGS): earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/... Video: www.youtube.com/watch?v=L6TB... ⚒️🧪🌊

First half of March average temperature departures from the 1991-2020 baseline for Alaska and vicinity based on ERA5 Land courtesy @copernicusecmwf.bsky.social. Bristol Bay/Iliamna Lake area coldest relative to normal but central Interior & central Yukon Territory close behind. #akwx #ytwx #Climate

February 2026 temperature anomalies across Canada. Overall warmer than normal, except Southern QC and ON and much of the territories. St. John's airport got its snowiest February on record (178 cm).

Let me just make a few little adjustments to that title… “How a scientist with a PhD in Geology and 25 years of experience is helping lead California’s earthquake work” Way to devalue my experience.

Drop the names of any Canadian companies you’ve seen working with ICE in the comments. I’m aware of Gardaworld, Roshel, Hootsuite. Would love to gather any and all other names.

I am more worried about war in Minnesota than in Greenland or Canada. The US is hours or days away from civil war. This might sound extreme, but if Walz has the Minn National Guard blocking ICE ops, the usual response of the fed govt to governors using NG against feds is to call out the army. 1/

These elected Dems still don’t get it. @booker.senate.gov

Yukon climate factoid: the temperature at Dawson remained below -15C from December 5 through January 15, and all but three of those days had high temperatures below -20C. Also, 25 days with lows in the 40s below with a low of -49.1C on Jan 4th. #ytwx @jkanadisk.bsky.social @explorenorth.bsky.social

Hey real quick, you don't just fucking 'acquire' country. Start using the correct language that doesn't try to downplay these threats.

🥶🥶🥶🥶

I mean, a bit of an honour to have experienced this little cold snap. Curious as to when the last time we had a streak of 19 days in a row of -40ºC as well!

Kind of weird to be thinking about buying seeds for spring when this is the current temperature. Thankfully it should warm up in a few days. #DawsonCity #Yukon

I love a good weather streak but I'm happy that this one is coming to an end. Now I can take out the battery from the car, warm it up, and then hope the car will start again! And also for the pipe to my washing machine and bathroom sink to thaw 🙃

Casual reminder that the myth of “pulling yourself up by your bootstraps” is a cruel hoax designed to convince poor people from all walks of life that the injustices they face are a result of their own actions, rather than an oppressive system rigged against them.

Dawson City in the blue hour at -47⁰C about an hour before today's sunrise at 12:12pm. We woke to no ice fog today and wow, what an absolute gift of a day. #DawsonCity #Yukon

Happy solstice (-45⁰C)

It's coming for us tonight🥶

We're on day 13 (or 14?) of temps dipping below -40⁰C and it's...tiring. but if we actually hit -50⁰C then that makes it worth it right?! #DawsonCity #Yukon

Did you feel shaking in Yukon at 1:41 p.m. MST today? That was a M7 #earthquake near the seismically active YK-AK border and 250 km to the west of #Whitehorse. Shaking was felt across much of Yukon and southeastern AK. Details and report shaking: www.earthquakescanada.nrcan.gc.ca/recent/2025/... ⚒️🧪

Agree or disagree?

Airstrikes don’t “test” a ceasefire. They break a ceasefire. Language isn’t that hard, media. Neither is professionalism and bravery.

I actually thought I had shared this on here and I hadn't. But if you want to look at why Tehran has to move it's climate change, yes, but it's genuinely fascinating as a failure of long term planning/ not understanding water supplies.

Here’s something that’s really important for everyone to understand. If we design our cities just for cars, they fail everyone, including drivers. If we design our cities with many great CHOICES in how to get around, they work better for everyone, including drivers. Spread the word.

PM Carney takes a jab at PoiLIEvre: “You know, one of the advantages of having your security clearance is you’re better informed about some of the threats [facing Canada], and I highly recommend that anyone either in a position of responsibility—or seeking it—has their security clearance.” 😂

“Restore merit, end DEI” says man who could only get elected in Canada’s safest Conservative stronghold

Pierre Poilievre says he wants to “restore merit.” He needed to be handed arguably the safest, most impossible to lose conservative seat in all of Canada after losing his own seat. Seems like the opposite of merit. #Poilievre (oh, and he still refuses to complete a check for a security clearance)

:(

Most Canadian newspapers are owned by Postmedia — a company controlled by U.S. hedge funds. CBC is one of the few truly Canadian voices left in our media. Who do you want telling our stories? 🇨🇦 🔗 r.pebmac.ca/https://www.... #SaveTheCBC #cdnpoli #Media #Canada

Buh bye, academia dot edu

how the fuck can anyone turn a blind eye Israel’s intentions when their Defense Minister just continues to say psychotic shit?!

The “problem” with vaccines? They so effective at preventing deaths that they create generations of people that question whether disease was a problem in the first place because they have never experienced the horrors of a world without vaccines.

Couldn't really have said it better myself. Wtaf.

You guys see where this is going? Right?

Good. No one should have to work for free and it boggles my mind this even exists.

It's actually pretty staggering how stupid Danielle Smith is.

Notably, 12,000 year old landforms are not offset across the fault, which implies that it may be at a relatively late stage of an interseismic period, having accrued a slip deficit of ~6 m. From this, we estimate that ruptures of at least magnitude 7.5 are possible in the future.

The paper I've been waiting for! Trying to find seismic hazard information for this region has been challenging at best, and I've been unsuccessful in finding something that describes risk. Seems worth it now to continue with earthquake insurance on the house (even if it is 20% of my premium).

The one thing that every Canadian knows - if you are confronted by ICE you don't ever slam on the brakes. You put both hands on the wheel and drive right over ICE. True. North. Strong. Free.

Lightning sparked wildfires in the Northwest Territories: "…including one wildfire – named EV014 – some 40 km north of Inuvik, about as far north on the territorial mainland as such a fire has ever been recorded." #ntwx #Canada #Wildfire2025 cabinradio.ca/245848/news/...

Honestly what is international law anymore?

And here we are a few hours later with some new fires popping up around town.

Alaska-Yukon travelers should know that the Top of the World Highway has just been closed on the Yukon side by a wildfire. Check yukon511.ca for more info.
