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.

Winter is not wasting any time this year.

First hard freeze and the third frost here in Charleston today. Charleston's ASOS METAR station was reading 30°F when I got up at 7 this morning, the coldest it has been since April. The valley looked like a January post-arctic frontal passage, with industrial steam forming its distinctive low stratus.

Furthermore, the GFS model has beefed up the snow forecast for all of West Virginia for Sunday and beyond, showing a solid upslope event from Tennessee up through the Alleghenies lasting all the way through Thursday!

Quite a classic Lake Michigan moisture plume/upslope pattern setting up there on Tuesday. This may be an outside-of-the-mountains event that could affect Charleston with the first icy bridge events of the season, much earlier than usual.

Blizzard warnings are already up for Kansas tonight.
