It's been almost a week since I've seen blue skies with fluffy white clouds.

As we experience our 3rd consecutive overnight of late-April frost warnings here in Metro Detroit, I wanted to document our backyard magnolia blossoms before they brown and fall away. I don’t expect them to survive the week, but they at least had a longer run than they did last Spring.

@fakelawn Congrats on rejoining Mastodon! Cool to catch the beaver. There's a lot of wonderful photos from birders and bird photographers here on Mastodon.

I haven't been out to Robert Long since last month, I need to get there to check out migrating warblers.

Was at Belle Isle yesterday, hoping to catch the American Avocet on the beach. Missed it, but I did see it earlier last week at the Michigan/Ohio state border.

@redcrew Hi! I found you after clicking my own hashtag. I just set up this Mastodon instance last night. Had previously set up a different instance when I first tried Mastodon back in November, but it wasn’t the right fit and I never really used it. I took that photo on April 14th. The red-winged blackbirds were out in force. I also saw a bunch of other great birds and one beaver that swam into my frame.

Yet another late-week snowstorm, still getting lucky…
MISD already had today scheduled off for the kid, and despite what looks like >4” on some surfaces, the warm ground and near-freezing air means my concrete is all just wet. No shoveling or blowing for me!

Looks like I’ll have another bullet to dodge on the other side of the weekend.

I’m not sure how much we got here in , but it was all melting as it came down. Sunny all day, up to 41°F, so no shoveling or blowing: all concrete surfaces are fully melted.

Absent something very unlikely, I will have made it through this Winter without doing any more snow work than clearing the driveway after plowing and spreading melter.

Finally started accumulating ~4PM, got some thundersnow around 8PM. Still snowing, but it is really hard to estimate depth because the combination of wind and 33°F means it is sticking and melting and drifting in chaotic ways. No more than 3 inches, so far. Not living up to its press…

Motion graphic artists in the and area, our monthly meet-up is tonight! Mograph, animation, and design are all welcome.

From the event page: Josh from Hobbes will be presenting Aerial — a typeface made for flying. He’ll walk through the development of the typeface itself as well as the creation of the case study videos and documentation, and he’ll answer the question: “why make a typeface for drones?”

According to the DTE Energy outage map as of 7:45am Eastern Time, 461,332 customers are without power. A little over 20% of their customers.

Luckily, we have power at our home.

In our area, Sheldon Road is closed between 5 Mile and 6 Mile, due to fallen trees.

Guess our local school district learned from their last snow day fiasco, when they didn't announce school closing that day until morning of the major snowstorm.

When students were already on their way to school.

And all school districts around them had already announced a snow day the night before.

Plymouth-Canton Community Schools in metro Detroit announced today's school closing last night.

Parts of metro Detroit, including our community, is under a winter storm warning starting Wednesday, January 25th morning at 5am.

Guess my snow shovel is going to have a busy day tomorrow.
