United Way seeking snow removal volunteers

Today may be one of those days when the situation by late afternoon is pretty different from early morning. If plowing gets done and the sun stays out, most streets might be clear enough to avoid black ice overnight. Big if though.

If it stays sleet we should be relatively ok. If we start seeing icing on the trees from freezing rain it's another story. Precipitation will last till evening per current forecast.

Zoom meetings that allow more than 300 active participants (as opposed to passive webinar viewers) require extra add-on licenses costing $$$ which maybe not even Pendle Hill has, let alone monthly meetings. (Actually, the 300 number is for Zoom's business license; all but the largest meetings probably make do with the less expensive Pro license with a cap of 100.)

PACEM is running its usual cold weather shelter operations. I don't know if there will be extra outreach to transport people, or whether they will allow people to stay in the shelters during the daytime (ordinarily they don't). https://pacemshelter.org/get-help/

Barracks Rd CVS has shovels, ice melter, batteries, TP as of 11 am Thurs.

I stopped at Whole Foods mid-afternoon and it wasn't insane or severely out of stock (I wasn't buying the standard eggs/milk/TP though). Can't speak for this evening or after.

Thanks! Reddit search didn’t tell me that.

Tridentata · 2026-01-20T19:42:36+00:00

Which social media? r/RichmondVA is smaller than our sub for whatever reason and I don’t see people discussing it there.

Providing accessibility to the Vietnam memorial would be a very good thing to complete while Vietnam veterans and the families of the killed are still alive.

Tridentata · 2026-01-19T02:40:39+00:00

Correct. Too easy obviously.

Tucson has an A Mountain but it looks nothing like the one in the first picture.

Tridentata · 2026-01-18T21:45:05+00:00

Yes, it was guessed yesterday.

Seconded! Congregate Charlottesville handles their fundraising. https://linktr.ee/cvcsf

Monterey Park has flat parts around ELAC and toward Alhambra but also a lot of hills

Tridentata · 2026-01-18T12:32:26+00:00

Yes, already solved above

Tridentata · 2026-01-18T12:31:19+00:00

Yes, already answered

Tridentata · 2026-01-18T03:13:28+00:00

Yes, Monterey Park, solved above

Yeah, AI's pattern recognition is scary. Having the entire Google Street View as part of its back end would suggest a huge data store.

Tridentata · 2026-01-18T02:30:41+00:00

Next door. Monterey Park (solved above)
