Snow!

From Dan: How the crime of copyright infringement took $1 million from me and shut down my operation.

In September of 2025, my work is generating the most income it ever has in my career. Yet, I'm being forced to shut down my successul operation, against my will, due to one cause alone: 95% of that revenue is being stolen by piracy and copyright infringement. I've lost more than $1 million to copyright infringement in the last 15 years, and it's finally brought an end to my professional storm chasing operation. Do not be misled by the lies of infringers, anti-copyright activists and organized piracy cartels. This page is a detailed, evidenced account of my battle I had to undertake to just barely stay in business, and eventually could not overcome. It's a problem faced by all of my colleagues and most other creators in the field.

Models are suggesting the strong possibility of a good snow event for the central Appalachians starting Monday into Wednesday. So far this season, every time I've posted about a possible snowstorm, nothing has happened. This time, however, the precip/cold temperature indications are quite strong, especially for Tuesday - suggesting at least 1 to 3 inches in Charleston and 3 to 6 or more in Beckley and the mountains. Something to watch.

In case you are wondering, the timestamps on yesterday's and today's posts are not typos - I really am awake at 3AM and posting to this blog at the exact same time for the second day in a row.
