Can practically watch it getting bigger 😜

We could use a good ice year.

This is super cool!

Finally got far enough down my project list to pick up this really nice yarn I bought at an art museum a while back. Going to do a simple garter stitch shawl with it. #knitting #knitsky

The recent seiche on Lake Erie, driven by strong NE winds, resulted in a remarkable tilting of lake levels. This particular seiche resulted in a lake-level difference of about 8-10 ft. Here is a plot of lake levels in Buffalo and Toledo (at either end of Lake Erie). #LakeErie #seiche

The U.S. EPA and Army Corps of Engineers has proposed a set of new rules that would leave millions of acres of wetlands, small waterbodies, and ephemeral streams across the country unprotected — threatening the drinking water of millions of Americans. #GreatLakes #CleanWater buff.ly/8mEJpMf

"The sea was angry that day, my friends..." We saw a sizable seiche in Lake Erie yesterday, with water levels a good 6' higher near Buffalo compared to Toledo. #GreatLakes #seiche #weather

#PortClintonLighthouse (Ohio) and #KeepersBoathouse on the shores of #LakeErie. Built in 1896, the #lighthouse, in the #Pepperpot design, is a wood construction and the sole survivor of its type on the #GreatLakes. Info: www.portclintonlighthouse.org

A new docu-series beginning on September 11 on #Ohio #publictelevision station WBGU will tell the stories of eight #LakeErie #lighthouses. #GreatLakes #MaritimeHistory #lighthouse

I get some pretty lovely sunsets here on the north west shore of Lake Erie.

A new IAGLR survey shows how federal actions are disrupting Great Lakes science—lost data, careers, & collaboration. On #WorldLakeDay, we’re reminded that protecting freshwater means supporting both the science & the people behind it. 📖 https://bit.ly/ll26 #GreatLakes #FreshwaterScience

Hello, I’m a junior scientist in a film. I am meek and skinny, carry a clipboard or folders, and wear glasses that break as soon as any action starts, rendering me immediately and completely helpless.

How's your weekend going? #sundayvibes

Here’s the shawl I’m working on. It’s the crepe shawl in Elizabeth Lovick’s Magical Shetland Shawls book.

I think this is the prettiest hand winding of a skein of yarn that I have ever made. #knitting #yarnnerds Yarn is Tillie from Berrocco.

I never, ever want to hear again that women are too emotional to be leaders.

Smoke from Canadian wildfires continues to spread across the Great Lakes region. Check out our story from last year about expecting smoke to be a more frequent part of seasonal planning: www.greatlakesnow.org/2024/06/expe...

Nice out at Maumee Bay State Park #GreatLakes

How awesome is this? I had two very rare piping plovers on my beach today here on the northwest corner of Lake Michigan. Here is a picture of one of them. @chicagopiping.bsky.social #906Life #birds #mymichigan

The Ohio Dept. of Natural Resources is predicting an abundance of yellow perch, bass, and walleye in Lake Erie, making for “another year of excellent fishing.” Read the press release at:

Lots of people on my feed are concerned about the destruction of NOAA by the Trump administration and Elon Musk, but much of what I’ve seen people post about is the national weather service. That’s vital, but NOAA does so much more than that! My latest, for @ucsusa.bsky.social 🧪🌎🦑🐠
