We are so fucked.
Can this be a solution?
All 0.5 degree scans from KLOT of the supercell in ILL/IN yesterday evening. Markers show hail reports larger than golf balls and tornado reports as they happened
Summing up Iran news today, I think.
- Hormuz still effectively closed
- Drones still flying
- Iran backchanneled ceasefire requirements via Russia/Pakistan, including no new US/Israel strikes in future
- Iran is getting intel on US strikes from third parties
- Mines still in ??? territory
From 80 degrees to snow? 🌡️-> ❄️
Yes, it’s possible that after reaching near to above 80 degrees today, we could see snowflakes tomorrow as temps drop to the 40s or 30s near ground level, and even colder at cloud level.
If any snow materializes, it’s not impossible we could see some slush on grass.
Tillis says he thinks Warsh is well qualified to be Fed chair but isn’t backing down:
“It is unfortunate that an ongoing investigation prevents me from voting for Kevin at this time.”
FBI: “.. Iran allegedly aspired to conduct a surprise attack using unmanned aerial vehicles from an unidentified vessel off the coast of the United State Homeland, specifically against unspecified targets in California ..”

hail fog yesterday evening just south of Reddick, Illinois
Massive updraft and mammatus forming on the underside of the anvil on the tornado-warned supercell that is encroaching on the OKC metro
A FIVE INCH HAILSTONE has been found near Buckingham, Illinois by senior meteorologist @matthewcappucci.bsky.social as he frolics through farmland.
This may be the state record if confirmed!
Tornado watches spanning 1,100+ miles from southwest Texas to north-central Illinois

Update (6:40pm CT): Lake Michigan influence helped weaken this cell as it entered downtown Chicago, but still a very damaging swath (including confirmed baseball-sized hail reports) that particularly affected parts of Will, DuPage, and Cook counties.

Ugly.

! “He told another colleague, who refused to help him upload the data because of legal concerns, that he expected to receive a presidential pardon if his actions were deemed to be illegal, according to the complaint.” Pardons don’t cover lawsuits tho
Summing up Iran news today, I think.
- US/Israel strikes continue
- Iran doesn't want talks, still firing on neighbors
- US asked Israel to stop hitting Iranian energy infra
- US claimed to be escorting tankers
- oops no it isn't
- Mines in the water
- ~80-90% of Iran mine laying capacity intact
Jennifer Jacobs @JenniferJJacobs NEWS via @CBSNews : U.S. intelligence assets have begun to see indications Iran is taking steps to deploy mines in Strait of Hormuz shipping lane. Iran is using smaller crafts that can carry 2 to 3 mines each. While Iran’s mine stock isn’t publicly known, estimates over the years have ranged from roughly 2,000 to 6,000 naval mines of Iranian, Chinese and Russian-made variants, @JimLaPorta reports 2:13 PM · Mar 10, 2026 · 6,060 Views
Here we go
Boeing said it will delay deliveries of some 737 MAX planes after discovering a problem with wiring on newly built aircraft, a new setback for its bid to get jets to customers faster.
So here's animated chart showing oil and currency markets reacting over the past week after Trump launched a regime change war against Iran and then declared it "very complete, pretty much" when the former leader's son took over:
Rep. Kevin Kiley says he has officially quit the GOP and changed his party affiliation to “no party preference” in CA.
He’ll still caucus with Rs.
Dems smashed his district and he’s now running in a D-leaning district.

Anthropic Sues Defense Department Over Supply Chain Risk Label By Rachel Metz and Jimmy Jenkins (Bloomberg) -- Anthropic PBC sued the Defense Department for declaring that the artificial intelligence giant posed a risk to the US supply chain, after a dispute with the Pentagon over whether the technology would be used for mass surveillance and fully autonomous weapons. San Francisco-based Anthropic is challenging a decision by the department to shift its AI work to other providers, based on a risk designation typically reserved for companies from countries the US views as adversaries. “These actions are unprecedented and unlawful,” the company said in a complaint filed in San Francisco federal court. “The Constitution does not allow the government to wield its enormous power to punish a company for its protected speech.” Read More: Anthropic at Risk of Huawei-Like Ban After Pentagon Punishment
Only question is how quickly they get a favorable ruling.
Growing bipartisan interest in this cause? The standard deduction for federal taxes was increased in TCJA and in OBBB. Now Cory Booker wants to boost it by more than double from current levels. www.nbcnews.com/politics/con...
