About 2 days ago I emailed NPR to suggest a story idea. Today they ran it! It is about a positive side to this crazy cold weather. There are a lot of invasive insects that have spread through North America. Some move via firewood, but others are moving North because of climate change. I was hoping that this cold snap would kill off some of these invasive insects and a quick internet search showed that my hopes were founded.
Here’s a link to the podcast. It is quite interesting. And it’s good to think of something positive when you are walking down the street thinking the tip of your nose might freeze off.
The photo above is from the *inside* of a coffee shop. The frost flowers were spectacular on many of the glass storefronts. This was from Monday.
